Instead inventing a new tag, it could simply be solved by only warning if the non-square building was modified or created in the current session. If this is the case (object modified/created), then simply offer an option to make it square or to ignore the message.

Take a look at https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/BiJ please (probably there are much more variants that people use than the ones from this query) All these objects have some kind of "no housenumber" abbreviation at addr:housenumber (which is exactly the same problem of using name="No name"). The addresses here (in real life) all always explicit in saying that the place don't have a housenumber. We could simply remove all these values, but people will reinsert them and we will create doubt in our data (if the place doesn't really have a housenumber or if it's only missing in the data). If we choose to create/define some standardized way to say that a place doesn't really have a housenumber (in the same way we already do with noname), we could start fixing all these wrong addr:housenumber, say to people "please, use this to represent a place without a housenumber", do some kind of QA, etc. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Usually the places without a housenumber here have some kind of intrinsic distinctiveness/uniqueness. For example, an airport located in a road (there won't be 2 airports at the same road), some big industries/factories, an university campus, parks, places related to the government, etc. What we are trying to find is something similar to noname and noref, but for housenumbers (and avoid people entering all imaginable and unimaginable variants of "no housenumber" in addr:housenumber). ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

You know that we live in a heterogeneous world with many oddities and peculiarities, that what makes sense in one country or region may not make sense in another, that these definitions are beyond our control and that we are only trying to represent what exists in the real world, right?

[OSM-talk] Representing places with no housenumber
What is the best way to represent places which have no housenumber? It's the same problem described in https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Addresses#Missing_housenumbers (and this same doubt arose recently in the Brazilian community) By leaving the housenumber empty we don't know in fact if the place doesn't have a housenumber or if it wasn't just filled. Similarly to using name="No name" to represent a street with no name, using any kind of value in addr:housenumber would be wrong and cause the same kind of problems.

It is working, but the maximum zoom level is now 12 (see https://blog.strava.com/press/heatmap-updates/) If you try to see some higher level tiles it will indeed give a forbidden error code.

Most of the affected data in Brazil is located in São Paulo city, where we have data available from the city hall. In other areas we have data from IBGE. We can fill most (if not all) of the street names back again using licit data. We are aware of the affected areas and streets. And I guess that we can't say that all the data was copied from Google. In some places it differs from Google, while being too similar to Bing (unless that Google data from 6+ years ago was the same as the current Bing data). For example, https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/113013110 In OSM we have "Rua Rosa Marly de Souza" In Google we have "R. Rosa Marli de Souza" in IBGE we have "Rua Rosa Marli de Souza" In the official city map we have "Rua Rosa Marli de Souza" And, in Bing, we have "Rua Rosa Marly de Souza" See the word "Marly" (in OSM and Bing) and "Marli" (everywhere else) Another example https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/48514142 In OSM we have "Rua Professora Maria José Baroni F. da Silva" In Google we have ""R. Profa. Maria José Barone F. da Silva"" in IBGE we have "Rua Professora Maria José Barone F. da Silva" In the official city map we have "Rua Professora Maria José Barone Fernandes da Silva" And, in Bing, we have "Rua Prfa. Maria José Baroni F. da Silva" R. expands to Rua Profa. and Prfa. expands to Professora Take a look at "Baroni" (in OSM and Bing) vs "Barone" (in everywhere else) Another https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/131816621 In OSM we have "Rua das Margaridas" In Google we have "Rua Margarida" In IBGE we have "Rua Margarida" In the official city map we have "Rua Margarida" In Bing "Rua das Margaridas" "Rua das Margaridas" (OSM/Bing) vs "Rua Margarida" (other places) ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

[OSM-talk] New Mapfeatures (Views) on openstreetmap.org: Proposal for additional
Hello all, I have taken a look into the new Map features and found some points which could make the maps more useful for Users. So I would like to start a discussion which elements are needed to be shown in the different Map views. Proposed improvements for the "Bicycle Map": Show also parking places (many Bicycle tours are start from and/or end here) Show also waterways also if "landuse=residential" Show waterways more visible (especially streams are shown extreamly small, but a canal which is only 0,5 meters width is shown much better) Show wastebaskets (Vending machine for excremental of Dogs and benches) Show Show important Sightseeing places With the above changes, the Bicycle Map can also use as "Walking Map" (the overlap is very large), so we would have a "Walking and Bicycle Map" Proposed improvements for the "Transportation Map": Display also parking places (especially P+R parking should be shown prominent) regards Alexander Jacubowsky Milcheshohl 27, 61462 Königstein E-Mail: a...@jacubowsky.info<mailto:a...@jacubowsky.info> Fon : +49 (6174) 20 16 34 Fax : +49 (6174) 20 16 84 Mobil : +49 (179) 50 70 90 9 -->> This Mail was checked by eleven (www.eleven.de) using x-purgate relay.

Re: [OSM-talk] [OSM-talk-fr] Continued aggression against French contributors (cadastre integration)
Dear Elena, Dear all, Cari amici, Chers amis, Liebe Freundinnen und Freunde, Sevgili Arkadaşlar, Dragi prieteni oí galera, ... First of all thank you Elena for your comments. May I aks you *all* to cool down a little bit. What I read here in the last days, expresssions like "agression", "cultural imperialism", I think that is not the way we should treat each other, nor in real life, nor here on the mailinglist. I live near the French and Luxembourg boarder, and we "sarreois" are seen from some germans as french and from some french as germans. ;-) ... As I lived for some years in a very different cultural envirement (South America) , I think I know the difference between different language and different culture ... I try to bring only the FACTS ;-) I try to resume the facts, as far as I understood the discussion Preamble: all (Netherlands, English, Italien, French, German, DWG ...) here on the list would ensure the quality of data in OSM. Facts: 1. Our french friends have done and will do imports into the database from cadastre. 2. Some in DWG are preocoupied about the possiblity to revert data, if they are false or should damage just existing data. 3. Our german friend Frederik made a proposal to make an anhancement for JOSM so that it would be easy to upload data with a different account ... "so that JOSM can store multiple identities and when you hit "upload" you can select which identity to use from a drop-down" Could that solve the problem? Are there other proposals to solve the possible quality problem? and last but not least ... please cool down ... dont talk to me about cultural differences - try to solve the issue.
