Either tag is ok. I'd suggest a change of the name tag to something like
old_name so that Mapnik stops rendering it. I know that's a bit of a fudge
but better than anything else. Additionally as Matt suggests a new area

Hi Jon,
As OSM is changing data licence on 1st April [1] there has been an
un-coordinated effort underway globally to replace OSM data that is
incompatible with the new licence. The primary reason for incompatibility is
where a mapper has declined (or not yet decided) to sign up to the

I can't for the life of me remember what we decided last month for the next
social location (for April 5th). I recall we also talked about a mapping day
soon in Hampton in Arden or Henley in Arden (was it the latter?) and I note
both (and Tamworth-in Arden) could be the basis
I added the data as a proposed rail route using the DfT's published info.
It's unfortunate that Mapnik renders the name on the route which is why it
shows up on the default map. My original Changesets were as below:
#1048624024 January, 2012 17:15 Proposed HS2 rail route (Data
provided
Thanks Tom. I've now added a note on the Facebook page too.
Changing the name Tag might quieten things a bit. Better still would be not
have Mapnik display the name tag at all (since its not displaying the route
otherwise) so we could just move the name to another tag?
Thoughts anyone?
User Say no to HS was just a rename from the original GMetcalfe.
I've now reverted the 5 changesets from these two accounts. I'll look at
changing the name tag on the HS2 data when I get a moment to avoid problems
in the future.
Cheers
Andy
