In the countries where those languages are spoken I would expect to see the Wikipedia tags pointing to articles in those languages. The languages you have listed are not the languages of Wales.

Wikipedia can do what it likes however this is about openstreetmap tagging and osm handles these tags just fine.

IMHO the tags wikipedia:en and wikipedia:cy and equally valid and have the advantage that a native who wishes to read about their country in its native should not have to go to wikipedia via a foreign language.
As Colin says, just because it is in the wiki doesn't make it so.

The wiki is intended to document mapping practice, not dictate it.

Hi
Just wondering why you changed Glenfield Social Club to a bar? It was correctly mapped as a Social Club which more accurately describes what it is and implies you cannot simply walk in.

They are a very common feature in most UK towns and villages.
See amenity=social_club although our mapping of them is often a bit lacking unfortunately.

These crossings are part of a traffic light controlled junction, they are certainly not pelicans. Pelicans are on demand crossings for pedestrians and most notably have a flashing green man/amber phase.

I have changed this to greengrocer which is a valid preset. Please let the editor guide you. Veg is unlikely to be understood by non-english users of the database.

@user_5359 please remember that phone numbers should be in international format.
@Ronhans please remember to use fully formed urls for web addresses otherwise they will not be clickable in apps which use the database..

Hi, welcome to OSM. Thank you for your edit however the Network Rail Depot is already mapped.
I have removed your duplication.

They should not be tagged as fast food, they are not retail outlets.

Fast food to a map user means I can go there to order a takeaway on their way home and they will be disappointed if they can't.

I tend to ignore those businesses in fhrs which are not verifiable.

Are there really so many fast food outlets in an industrial area?

I cannot imagine enough people wandering into an industrial estate on their way home from the pub.

Crossings do not render on the standard carto, I am baffled by that decision.

They do show on the cycle layer changeset/90477805#map=19/52.70806/-2.73849&layers=C and http://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html#zoom=20&lat=52.7078081&lon=-2.738469 which is a more UK friendly render.

Hi, the crossing was already in the database. I have updated the tags to indicate that it is a pelican.

Hi, thank you for your addition but please take your time and do a bit more than the absolute minimum and improve the map by looking after the existing features.

You have drawn your road over the top of an existing wood, it is clear from imagery that the wood is now smaller, please take care and fix it.

The footpath has been incorporated into the pavement, so should now join the road.

The best tag we have for collectables/vintage is antiques.

Phil Perks is already mapped.

Is it really a convenience shop? The name suggest it is a butchers.

Cheers Phil

90305056 over 5 years ago

I will do.
I must admit I do not understand the value of this tag. In most places I map it will always be a wet finger in the air job.

Cheers Phil

Are you sure about this?

The majority of road names seen to be in French.

The wiki page does say that the tag does not make sense in multilingual regions.

Hi
Lunts Chemist should be tagged as amenity=pharmacy.

When you add nodes within a building is a bit of a black art but in this case I would put the name/amenity tags on the building and not include a node.
