I'm not able to create a new relation, it only shows the relation you already created, or to add streetname tags. > <snip> > OK, I'm back.

I'm not a lot in that neighbourhood anymore, but I will remember to take pictures of bus stops when I see one. And about that wiki page, is it usefull to put this in the OSM wiki? I don't know where it belongs.
