I settled on using building:part=house for the individual houses and
wrapping the whole building with building=terrace. I think this makes more
sense anyway, tagging the individual houses as part of the larger building.
Thanks for pointing me to building:part=*!
In general, how should one approach making an edit to the wiki? If I wanted
to suggest this approach in the wiki, should I start a separate email
thread to discuss this tagging scheme before editing the wiki page?

According to the wiki page about building=terrace, it is usually best
practice to map each house as a separate area (closed way) object.
"A more detailed and recommended alternative is to map each dwelling
separately using building=house, but keeping at least two nodes in common
for adjoining houses."

If you map each house individually, it is not necessary to map the whole
outline of the row of houses.
right, but the question was: how do you add a name to the ensemble?
I.e. an entity is required where the name can be attached to.
An alternative could be to add addr:housename to the individual houses, but
it would not exactly be the same thing. It would look like many adjacent
houses which all bear the same name.
