Re: [OSM-talk] iD name suggestion index - asking non-English-speaking mappers to review

[Stefan Baebler]

I see "Petrol" is categorized under discardedNames, but is is in fact a
valid full name of company with chain of gas pumps in Slovenia (
www.petrol.si).

Are there many other similar cases that would make it worthwhile to make
this functionality location-aware, dependant on regions (countries,
continents, languages)?

Best regards,
Štefan

That's what I think we should have for the base OSM.org map.

That leaves me with one solution - OSM removes all its maps and instead
promotes the idea of each of us producing and rendering our own 'personal'
maps which OSM hosts. So we get things like cycle map, humanitarian map, my
map, your map and her map all listed for us with an info panel as to what
the map shows so people can choose which map they prefer to use/embed.

Th other question is: do we actually want to support (as in suggest
spelling) non-chain names or not? Currently the majority of at least the
restaurant names do not belong to chains, they are simply frequently
used names.

Another thing. Is this still active? There hasn't been much activity 
lately and it has also open pull requests that could have been merged 
already. I'm just asking because I spotted some things to correct, but I 
want to make sure that I do not waste my time because a pull request 
might not get merged.


Still, quite useful project!

So this index is used in iD and it's supposed to suggest names of
shops/amenities that are part of some chain. (like: McDonald's, Aldi,
...). But due to how it works (counting occurrences) there are generic
nouns that end up here, which is bad tagging (like shop=bakery
name=Bakery [1]) and could form a feedback loop that proliferates them
even more.

I ask non-English speakers to find anything they are sure it's a noun
and not a proper name. name-suggestions.json specifies name
suggestions and filter.json specifies what "non-names" should be
filtered.

Some examples I found that need confirmation:

Аптека
Apotheke
Boulangerie
Пекарня
Зоомагазин
Обувь
Стройматериалы
Салон красоты

[OSM-talk] Widespread (but oldish) wiki spamming needs fixing

See http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/BardicMa

Due to the age of the edits they cause conflicts so need to be undone
