We are happy enough to accept roads named "High Street" from street signs labelled "HIGH ST." so I can't see why shops should be held to a different standard. What do people think about using upper case for names that are pronounced as a series of letters and mixed case for names that are pronounced as a word? Whilst not ideal (until the widespread adoption of the talking shop sign!) this would give us a rule of thumb that should be easy enough to follow in the majority of situations. -- Regards, Andy Street _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
