Have a look at this place "Siesel":
<a class="m_-515120561961616149moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/51.22209/7.90369" target="_blank">http://www.openstreetmap.org/#<wbr>map=17/51.22209/7.90369</a>. The hamlet is
called Siesel and officially all the streets there do not have a
name (you can check on the "NRW-Atlas: ALKIS" layer that all
streets are just designated "Weg" i. e. "Street"). From an official
address point of view all houses there should have addr:place=Siesel
and addr:housenumber=nn.</div></blockquote><div><br><br></div><div>is "nn" meant to be literally the string "nn"? (btw: NN in German usage is a placeholder referring to people). In Italy, quite frequently in the countryside, there is the abbreviation "snc" to say "no housenumber", but I wouldn't add this in addr:housenumber as it's not a housenumber (you can find it in official lists in the housenumber field though).<br></div><div><br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> On the ground, tough, they have put up the
usual German street name signs all showing "Siesel". So from an on
the ground point of view all houses there should have
addr:street=Siesel and addr:housenumber=nn. What to do now?</div></blockquote><div><br><br></div><div>IMHO the street name signs could result in highway names in OSM (highway=*, name=Siesel) as one alternative, or not (if you interpret them as the place name and not as a street name, because as a German native, I'd not expect "Siesel" to represent a streetname but rather a placename). In both cases, I wouldn't add addr:street tags with the "Siesel" as value, because it isn't the street name address.<br></div><div><br><br> it's by definition we refuse to have both tags, as addr:place is defined for places without streetnames</div><div><br></div><div>cheers,</div><div>Martin </div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">

I agree this is borderline but I don't see why we should
categorically refuse to have both tags.</div></blockquote></div>
