It shouldn't be in the map if it can't be verified on the ground. As to tagging, please delete the gns:* tags and especially the is_in tag. That last one's a dinosaur. What do you hope to achieve by importing GNS place names? We have decent place names available already. How will you avoid duplicates? To avoid deletion, don't forget to follow the Import guidelines. As we've recently seen on this list, they're not optional. cheers, Stewart ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca

[Talk-ca] Annexation/amalgamation of towns/villages in Canada
Hi all. First post from a new contributor so initially want to say I am enjoying being a part of this OSM Canadian community. I would like some local opinions on Beverly. https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/51970574 The former town of Beverly was amalgamated into Edmonton in 1961 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beverly,_Alberta). The area is now a number of named neighbourhoods (none of which are named Beverly). As Beverly no longer exists, is it best practice to delete this node or is there a better way to tag it?
