"Here’s an example of a square in Berlin in a residential early 20th
century area:"
Is this mapped as a leisure=park in Openstreetmap? If so, then I don't
see any need to also map the same area as a square.

so these are likely not the only kind of squares in Indonesia (if you decide

Although in Portugal squares are very well defined, either from their
physical significance or from their name, this is surely not the case in
every country.
Maybe one of their main common characteristics is that they're open
urban areas, a point of confluence where people can gather for social
Please leave the description vague. Every one of us will be able to come up
with a list of "squares" that don't fulfil the criteria we will define.
They often have the role of landmarks for the population, long after the
original square (as empty space for the people) has disappeared.

Yes, thank you. (Sorry, I use a satellite internet connection, so iD
doesn't work too well for me):
"Praça ou largo: Praça, praceta ou largo: espaço numa zona urbana,
normalmente sem edifícios (apenas a volta desta), que constitui um
espaço público
In Portuguese it's "Praça", similar to Piazza, which comes from the
Latin "platea".
Depending on its size and location, it can be named officially as
"Praça", "Largo"or "Praceta".
The English description of place=square in iD is empty.

Curious: what is the translation used in Portuguese?
Do you also know the English description of place=square used in iD?

regarding name tag, which should be mandatory.
In Portugal, the definition of square can have three meanings, depending
on its size and region, but it's easy to map them because they all have
name.
The problem with iD can be
Yes there is inconsistent use of place=square, in particular for _unnamed_
objects.
As the place=* key is used to indicate that a particular location is known by a
particular name,
a place=* tag without a name is fundamentally wrong.
