is "nn" meant to be literally the string "nn"? (btw: NN in German usage is a placeholder referring to people). In Italy, quite frequently in the countryside, there is the abbreviation "snc" to say "no housenumber", but I wouldn't add this in addr:housenumber as it's not a housenumber (you can find it in official lists in the housenumber field though). > On the ground, tough, they have put up the usual German street name signs all > showing "Siesel". So from an on the ground point of view all houses there > should have addr:street=Siesel and addr:housenumber=nn. What to do now? IMHO the street name signs could result in highway names in OSM (highway=*, name=Siesel) as one alternative, or not (if you interpret them as the place name and not as a street name, because as a German native, I'd not expect "Siesel" to represent a streetname but rather a placename). In both cases, I wouldn't add addr:street tags with the "Siesel" as value, because it isn't the street name address. it's by definition we refuse to have both tags, as addr:place is defined for places without streetnames cheers, Martin > > I agree this is borderline but I don't see why we should categorically refuse > to have both tags.
