<p>Je tends à être d'accord. Le principe de base est que nous
"mappons" tout ce qui est visible sur place. Ores j'ai survolé
l'Ardenne multiple fois (et avec grand plaisir!) sans pourtant
jamais voir aucune frontière Ardennaise :)</p>

1992</i> there is a map (p. 137) that shows the major
morphological units of Belgium. The Northern <span

the Central <span class="" style="" id=":m5.21"

</ul>
It is clear from all this that the <span class="" style=""
id=":m5.23" tabindex="-1" role="menuitem"
aria-haspopup="true">Ardenne</span> is a geological concept.
The data does not belong to <span class="" style=""
id=":m5.24" tabindex="-1" role="menuitem"
aria-haspopup="true">OpenStreetMap</span> at this stage.
Tags relating to geology are few in number and generally very
precisely located. (<a

OK, there are several types of boundaries in <span class=""
style="" id=":m5.26" tabindex="-1" role="menuitem"
aria-haspopup="true">OSM</span>. But these are - generally -
official and public data which are not contestable. The
boundaries of the <span class="" style="" id=":m5.27"
tabindex="-1" role="menuitem" aria-haspopup="true">Ardennes</span>
are too imprecise and hardly verifiable in the field by an
ordinary contributor. Who will arbitrate on possible boundary
changes?<br>

The route created by <span class="" style="" id=":m5.28"
