I had now been using https://nunataqqi.gl/ to check for the #13493 id at the nuna aqqi dataset version 2.0.

But on the changeset you changed the name:da tag from Nuuk to Godthåb. I now looked at the Nunat Aqqi Stednavne dataset and the id #13493 says "Dansk (fra arkiv)": Godthåb but for that sounds rather like old_name:da and not name:da. For name:da I would still recommend Nuuk, as Nuuk is widely used today in dansk writing and Godthåb seems rather the old_name:da (and had been the old_name:da value already).

My perspective is also that a map should be useful in todays use so if all mayor media outlets in Dansk (Berlinske, Politiken, DR etc.) use Nuuk as name, it would be easier for a map viewer to read Nuuk here if language is set to "da" than the old Godthåb but I'm not a Danish speaker so it would maybe best to ask the Danish community (e.g. here: https://community.openstreetmap.org/c/communities/dk/77 ) about it.

Hello andershl, thank you for your fast response. Is their an online source for the official set of names from the Greenland name authority db? I tried https://data.geus.dk/geonetwork/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/4c3820cd-f45d-4d2a-9cb6-ebc63422ff98/formatters/xsl-view?root=div&view=advanced but that one gets me a 404 error while trying to load the WMS layer. I haven't found another publication yet.

Hello andershl, for the old spelling we have the "old_name:da" tag which had "Godthåb" already. But you changed the name:da from "Nuuk" into "Godthåb" which is surprising as if I look into Danish media I rather see the Nuuk spelling in Dansk than the old Godthåb. Wouldn't it be better to have Nuuk in name:da and Godthåb in old_name:da or do you think that Godthåb is more widely used than Nuuk in Danish society today?

Hello Supaplex, with this changeset you've added a lot of multilingual names to the Orlando city relation but quite a few of those had the value of "Florida" (and only Florida) in those languages but not "Orlando". This was probably a mistake in your large changeset. I hope that my deletions of those wrong name:xx tags (Florida instead of Orlando or Orlando, Florida) in changeset/152561390 are ok with you.

I did delete a lot of name:xx tags that have misrepresented Orlando as Florida. Please check your language to see if the name in your language translates to Orlando or Orlando, Florida (both fine) or Florida (wrong).

Sorry, you are right, this El Valle is not the El Valle that is the region DO-37, I see it now. I misunderstood your changeset comment when I first read it. But with your explanations and while looking at the regions of DO again, it makes sense.

[sorry about the all typos, it should have been:
*all carrying an ISO3166-2 code...
*I would love..
*these codes...
]

Hello thefrankbraun,
El Valle has it's own ISO3166-2 code and that is DO-37. You are right about the two subdivisions, they have their own codes as well. But DO-37 is the code for El Valle, so it should not be removed. DO has two levels of subdivions all caring a ISO3166-2 code. You have already been asked elsewhere (Belgium area) to start a topic at community.openstreetmap.org about your ISO3166-2 code changes. It would love to see if you do that before you continue to work on this codes and delete good information. Thank you.

Looking at the satellite image I don't see a wood in this form otg. Nice art though but please do not enter "artwork" into the map that is not reflecting what is on the ground. Yes, there are a few trees but not a heart-shaped wood. Would you revert this changeset? Thank you.
