It will be interesting to see what the outcome of that little test
will be.<br>
<br>
btw, I've been fixing some postal codes too on roads across the
border between zemst and mechelen, I decide based on AGIV data.
I've notices some roads had the correct name (either on the relation
or on it's own) but the wrong postal code (hence also the name).<br>
<br>
The borders there are a not entirely accurate, for example
Boterstraat and Kleine Parijsstraat. See
<a href="http://simon04.dev.openstreetmap.org/whodidit/?zoom=14&lat=50.99405&lon=4.44663&layers=BTT&user=Glenn%20Plas&age=6%20month" target="_blank">http://simon04.dev.openstreetmap.org/whodidit/?zoom=14&lat=50.99405&lon=4.44663&layers=BTT&user=Glenn%20Plas&age=6%20month</a><br>
<br>
When checking with AGIV, you cannot find Boterstraat in zemst but
you can in hombeek (Mechelen). Sometimes they exist in both of
course, not these 2 though.<br>
<br>
One other thing, I noticed a lot of people use source=wikipedia ,
which is our duty to add, but at that moment also consider adding
more detail using key wikipedia=<language:Page>.<br>
