I'm not arguing
there shouldn't be a standard, but I am pointing out OSM is hardly
consistent.
Question is, can we remove some of the inconsistency by introducing new tags?
If no, then Serge's suggestion (without the additional tags) seems to be in
line with current OSM practice.

I repeat, the only way, according to current OSM schema as I understand
it, to represent the above point of view is a node in Hebrew,
place=city, capital=yes, is_in=Israel.

Arabic *and* Hebrew are the official languages of Israel. You can see
that also the Jerusalem Municipality website is in Arabic and Hebrew (
English) [1].
Hebrew is locally considered to be the primary language. While Arabic is also
an official one, Hebrew clearly takes precedence.

I'd suggest we remove the capital: tags (too controversial, and I've
removed them from the quotes) , and then I think this is perfect.
In that case, what is the meaning of capital=yes in OSM?

Hi,
This proposal is well considered and it could work in my view. Even
though it's a compromise (vs. solution) in the sense that it solves a
rendering 'problem', it doesn't compromise the tagging rules/principles
to that end. Of course it's the local mapping community that will have
to make the
