In my opinion, old_name:fi is for Finnish names that have fallen out of use, regardless of whether it has been replaced by a Finnish name or a Russian name. This interpretation also offers a lot more flexibility to applications than yours does, because it does not lose the important information whether or not the name is still actively used. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
