At this point, I settle for just requiring that it's a named location

Hello everyone,
Thanks for your comments so far! I've changed the proposed tag to
natural=peninsula:

Is the distinction of peninsulas from capes correct (see section See also)?
Wishing you all a happy new year!

I have concerns about the definition of peninsula that you've used "a piece

Agree with Graeme. I like the illustration he shared too, "a cape can be
found at the end of a peninsula (and, in my experience, often are) while
you'll never see a peninsula at the end of a cape." The state of Florida is
a peninsula as is India, at least by someone's definition.

Looking for some guidance here from the tagging experts. Please see the

Those municipalities are relations of type=boundary and
boundary=administrative with an appropriate admin_level, no?
These are different from the OSM settlements, which are mapped as a node at
the center of a city, town, village, hamlet or isolated dwelling or farm.

Most of Arabia could be considered a very large peninsula as well.

Very interesting. In the Turkmen case, the classifications are defined in
law and involve both size (though population data are secret) and type of
governance structure (for full details please see

Is it fair to call a s
In OSM a neighborhood is a named part of a larger settlement, usually a
town or suburb or city, though in Indonesia some “desa” (villages) consist
of a dozen named “kampung” (neighborhoods).
Suburbs are also considered parts of larger towns or cities. So a city can
be divided into a dozen suburbs,
By that definition, then, calling an autonomous village with its own
council a "neighbourhood" would be erroneous, correct?

That’s the American million, you remove 3 zeros from the British version,

Not according to the wiki. It seems nodes are the accepted way of
identifying a settlement, municipal or otherwise.

It depends on if it is part of a continuous urban settlement or not.
I use “suburb” and “neighborhood” for places that are considered to be part
of a larger place. Usually these are mainly urban places, where most people
are involved in services and industry rather than agriculture or forestry
