[Tagging] Subtag for place=locality?

2019-04-14 Thread Joseph Eisenberg
Currently place=locality is main in the database from imports, and it is also used as a way to tag a feature which is not currently rendered by most map renders so that the name will show. Since place=locality was originally defined as "a named place that has no population" it's easy to see how

A barrier on a park will have some means of getting in!!! So the barrier will not be continuous - having gate/s or gaps etc. The park boundary would then consist of the way that is the fence/barrier and other ways (possibly a gate etc) and that then meets the definition for a multipolygon
