Duplicates in name tag, why?

โพสต์โดย Filip009 เมื่อ 24 ธันวาคม 2022 ในภาษา English

Why are we using duplicates in name tag?

(Maybe because it is hard to see difference between more similar relation at one place. So when you see relations in editors, you mostly see name tag or ref tag when there is no name)

route=railway

osm.wiki/Tag:route%3Drailway

(mandatory)

In this relation name tag should consist of:

“operator” “ref” “from” - “to”

route=train

osm.wiki/Tag:route%3Dtrain

(recommended)

In this relation name tag should consist of:

“vehicle type” “ref”: “from” => “to”

route=hiking/cycling

osm.org/relation/6177257

In this relation name tag consist of:

European long distance path “ref” - “description/note”

Let’s use the name= tag in route relations for route names. Let’s use the ref= tag for route numbers. If it doesn’t have a name, it shouldn’t have a name= tag.
