but they are not reflected in the (international/main part of) the wiki for key=place. I don't know if the British do tag strictly according to the place description, but I know that Italians and Germans don't. In Europe a town can be quite small, but will still be a town and a village can nowadays be quite big and still remain a village. In the US I am not sure what are your criteria, what about density, I am also not sure how to tag downtowns (the space where your cities were until they were torn down in the 60ies and 70ies due to fear of riots (scnr, sorry, that's maybe not true for all of them) etc. > Deal with it.

I doubt it in this case, as fixed population numbers can't be the solution to this problem which is highly dependent on density and spacial distribution/structure. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
