I've been changing them to match what is listed on edubase for the main name, and retaining an alt_name sometimes. > I've been leaving existing names in the main (occasionally adding VC or > VA) in the hope these are from surveys and are what are on the sign, but > some names are sourced from fhrs or even os opendata.

That often uses a different name to either of the format used on edubase or originally, so just what is right? Since the edubase name equates to the 'registered' name that should be taken as official, and many of the missing schools simply have a large discrepancy in names, but which any human would understand as matching ;) -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
