Re: [Talk-us] Misspelled names
name=Walmart Neighborhood Market is a real thing, and probably shouldn't be corrected. They have different branding than a regular Walmart (green and yellow vs. the regular Walmart blue and yellow). Here's the one on hwy 99 in Milwaukee OR: https://www.google.com/maps/@45.4098553,-122.627165,3a,75y,14.1h,92.52t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sDBmlbyc_1EdyH4tg4vGNDg!2e0 On Wed, Dec 17, 2014 at 6:20 PM, Peter Dobratz pe...@dobratz.us wrote: On Wed, Dec 17, 2014 at 2:13 PM, Mike Henson mikehen...@hotmail.com wrote: I am also having an issue with Walmart, should it be a Marketplace, Supermarket, Department store???

Re: [Talk-us] Misspelled names
The iD editor uses the Name Suggestion Index to suggest correct spellings and tags for common places. ( https://github.com/osmlab/name-suggestion-index/blob/e3b1dafc0acea3e18543647920748962f849e204/canonical.json#L361 ) I've submitted a few pull requests, but haven't seen much activity on this project in the past year.

All 3 are used in OSM in Oklahoma. The big Walmart stores should probably be department store. When it is just a grocery store they are usually name Walmart Neighborhood Market. I did see a website, which I can find right now, that listed commonly misspelled corp brands. When all else fails, email the company and ask them how they would like to be shown. I bet we get a quick answer.

I then came across this wiki page http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Chain_Store_Cleanup#Misspelled_names What a life saver, after reviewing this wiki page, I found many more misspellings I was making 7-11, Wal-Mart, Starbucks and so on. Nice. jcpenny is another name that commonly gets misspelled. I plan to update this wiki with Chick-fil-a should be Chick-fil-A fast_food (like their website) Subways should be Subway fast food That sounds about right, though due to moral opposition to the company's politics, I generally don't bother to map CfA locations unless it's a particularly notable location (like one on a I am still having issues with Sonic (http://www.sonicdrivein.com/) people use SONIC, Sonic or Sonic Drive-in on OSM. The website is no help because they also use all 3 names... Is there a consensus on Sonic? I tend to go with Sonic since that's the most frequent iteration of what appears on the sign (particularly in towns where there's restrictions on the size of signage in play, or other factors that cause a particular location to have smaller signs; Sonic is somewhat notorious for trying to make sure their locations fit with the neighborhood they're in compared to other major chains). The next most common signs I've seen for this chain are Sonic America's Drive In (especially larger locations with 20+ stalls) and Sonic Service With the Speed of Sound (for truly ancient locations) I am also having an issue with Walmart, should it be a Marketplace, Supermarket, Department store??? All 3 are used in OSM in Oklahoma. Walmart Neighborhood Marketplace, and Walmart, depending on if it's a classic or supermarket type location. I tend to tag these as a variety_store or supermarket depending on the kind, and if I'm familiar with the layout, will tag the departments with POI. Annoyingly, Walmart Neighborhood Markets often end up across from or sharing a parking lot with another supermarket (usually a Reasor's, Thriftway or Aldi Sud) rather than actually locating themselves in a food desert where there's plenty of former supermarket locations currently being used as other kinds of retail and could _really_ use one. But I might be biased, I live a mile from the busiest Walmart in Tulsa and it's usually faster to go to Reasor's or Aldi Sud up in the next town over (Owasso) than go up the street, largely because it's the closest supermarket for almost half the metro... ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
