Re: [Talk-ca] Formatting of Municipality Names in Ontario

[OSM Volunteer stevea]

It's good to see that admin_level tags (always 8?  they might be 7 if township, 
that's a chunky topic...) are there.  What I mean by "cutting room floor 
recycling" includes this thought:  it couldn't hurt to update/touch-up/fix 
these after a cursory examination that's they are thumbs-up/thumbs-down, need a 
touch-up.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the feedback.  OSM is updated accordingly.

I also changed "City of Prince Edward County" to "Prince Edward" (I 
didn't receive any comments on that one).   "City Of" updates in 
Ontario is now complete (at least until someone adds another one).


Updates to "Town Of" are now in  progress.   If anyone has comments 
about how to handle the following please do speak up:


   3053 Town of the Blue Mountains   => "Blue Mountains" [remove "the"]
 14 Town of Caledon (Bolton)
  2 Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville (Stouffville)
  2 Town of Caledon (Sandhill)
  1 Town of Saugeen Shores (Southampton)
  1 Town of Mono (Rosemont)
  1 Town of Huntsville (Port Sydney)
  1 Town of Clarington (Enniskillen)

"Township Of").  The list for "Municipality Of" is:

I can speak to Maple, living a few km north of it.  The OSM wiki states:
—CLIP—
Use place =suburb to 
identify a major area in a place 
=town 
 or place 
=city 
 with a 
distinct and recognised local name and identity. Suburbs may have 
uncertain boundaries, may overlap with other suburbs, and are often 
best mapped using a node.
For areas within a suburb, the tag place 
=neighbourhood 
 will 
usually be used. If necessary, place 
=quarter 
 may be 
used for an area of a large settlement which is smaller than a 
suburb and larger than a neighbourhood.

—END CLIP—
and on that basis I'd say yes, Maple is definitely a suburb of 
Vaughan, as are 1/2 of Thornhill, Concord, Woodbridge, and 
Kleinburg.  Purpleville and Nashville should likely be classified as 
neighbourhoods, and Hope and Burrlington (note double "r") as 
pioneer communities.


16796 Town of Markham, has been a city for a few years.

The following 2 are not changed, as per my previous comment that I 
will not update the name if it does not exist in NRCan without 
further review here.


1)  3 City of Vaughan (Maple)

Probably "Maple" should in the addr:suburb field instead?

2)   6165 City of Prince Edward County
