At zoom level 4, placenames for major cities appear, but no country
names at any level.
Perhaps, there should be one for levels 4-6.
I do remember that we added a node tagged as country and name
Philippines. Do I need to add an is_in tag for every island (7100 +
high tide or low tide)?

Hi,
As discussed in
[http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Talk:GSoC_Applications_2008]:
I18n of OSM pages and map tiles
* How many times should a tile be rendered: one per language
defined in the system, or one per language defined in the zone? How to
define zone
Today joined the 100rd member on the Openstreetmap Linkedin group
nice achievement guys

prevents rendering since the 4th.
There must have been hundreds of tries until now.
