Re: [talk-ph] Your final say on the proposed road classification scheme

[Jherome Miguel]

(Late reply)

Just a heads up, 2020 census figures are now available and the list of
large cities for determining trunk routes needs to be updated.

Some highlights:
- 6 small cities (Tayabas, Tacurong, Masbate City, Balanga, Guihulngan,
Lamitan) the existing list for determining primary roads have become large
cities
- 1 large city (Panabo) has become a small city
- Calaca, pending plebiscite (since postponed to 2022), is added to the
list of small cities
- 15 municipalities (Guiguinto, Pandi, Pulilan, San Rafael in Bulacan,
Carmona, Kawit, Carmen in Bukidnon, Santa Cruz in Davao del Sur, Parang in
Maguindanao, Sultan Kudarat, Calasiao, Tiaong, T‘boli, Paniqui, Sindangan)
are added to the list of large municipalities used to determine primary
routes

I’m also working on some of the exceptions, particularly in Central Luzon
and CALABARZON. Examples to note the main roads in San Mateo and Rodriguez,
roads to Candaba, and the roads in Bondoc Peninsula in Quezon Province.

Re: [talk-ph] Another user possibly illegal copying from GMaps

[Jherome Miguel]

Just noticed them lately after making major edits in Rosario and Padre
Garcia, but this user raises some suspicion: “Maryerick”. Some notes:

-User edited around same area as Ashley, namely, Padre Garcia
-Some POI names provide clues they're possibly copied from GMaps (e.g.
-Takeout added after names)
