filling in a few round here. Before I do, though, I wanted to ask <br>
whether there was a consensus tagging schema (or whether we could agree <br>
one if not)...<br>
<br>
<br>
I've found quite a few tagged with<br>
man_made=village_sign<br>
though this value is not listed in<br>
<a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:man%20made?uselang=en" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:man%20made?uselang=en</a><br>
<br>
Many have<br>
name=*<br>
which seems reasonable, though I do slightly worry that it might end up <br>
with villages being labelled on the map with their name several times!<br>
<br>
Some also have<br>
tourism=artwork<br>
though perhaps this is a bodge to get something to render on the default <br>
map? See e.g. <a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/6341816268" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/6341816268</a><br>
<br>
There are also a selection of other tags<br>
colour=*<br>
material=* (typically "wood" or "metal")<br>
description=*<br>
and probably others, I haven't done an exhaustive search.<br>
