Yes, but since the name refers to a (small) neighborhood, assigning that same name to the hard-surfaced gathering place is wrong and making things up to fit euro notions which do not apply. Really, it seems like you are trying to shoehorn european definitions into US naming when it is just not the way it is. > Although it could explain why people tag place=square to neighborhoods I think people tag place=square because they have not been through this discussion and they assume that place=square is a locality-type tag that refers to an indistinct named region that is an intersection and the things near it. That's what speakers of en_US would assume, not having read a detailed definition that says otherwise. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
