<p>There are many disturbing opposing votes claiming Belarusian
language to be language of minority, in many places not present
on the ground, and Russian language to be widely used and known.<br>
According to Wikipedia, 30% of Belarusian can write Belarusian,
50% can speak and read.</p>
<p>How can 70% of the population actively contribute to OSM if they
cannot write the most frequently displayed text tag (name) in
Belarusian?<br>
