Kathmandu; Nepali and International Names
Апублікавана карыстальнікам prabhasp 2 Ліпень 2011 на мове EnglishI've been working on making some of the Kathmandu mapping better based on my local knowledge.
A few questions I wonder about:
- how to name things so that they show up in both English and Nepali? I want the Nepali name to be present and highlighted, but also the English name, as people using both languages want to use OSM.
- in Nepal, intersections are also the names used for entire neighborhoods. I have been labeling intersection nodes with names of these neighborhoods, but how do I make sure the name is rendered so its well displayed on the map? I found one intersection/neighborhood (Chabahil) labeled as place=town. Is this appropriate?
