Totally agree. Flooding OSM with not: tags is both pointless and counter-productive. Why not implement a search engine type feature like google suggest that spell checks and autocorrects. If the differences between OS Locater and OSM are only minor, i.e. apostrophes, spaces in names, etc then these could probably just be ignored instead of having millions of not:* tags for all the possible permutations that *could* be entered incorrectly by an end user. > > It just feels that the not:* tag is adding data to OSM to placate a lint > tool, rather than adding geographic data to the database.
