<pre wrap="">Hi,
What to do about a road that doesn't have a name comes up on the list
frequently. There's a few options suggested.
I've created a new proposed feature for this listing the available
options (noname=yes, name:absent=yes, missing_tags=name, etc etc)
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Proposed_features/Noname">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Proposed_features/Noname</a>
Please flesh this out and use the discussion page. If one is the clear
favorite, it should be voted on.

Am I missing something here, or is the editing interface now CREATING a new
problem? If something does not have a name why would you ADD a name=xx tag. No
name tag = no name. I doubt that every trackway has a name so why ADD
thousands of noname=yes when simply not providing a name tag does the same thing.

i think the concept of what we are talking about is this<br>
<br>
there are two cases to describe:<br>
· that it really does not have a name, so we need to have the source of
this info in case that the situation changes or to check the validity
of the info.<br>
· that we don´t know the name, so we need to know the cause, (eg. there
is no sign on the ground), this way we can avoid to travel physically
there again to check, and we have to find the name in some other way.<br>
<br>
in the first case maplint or noname layer should not mark it .<br>
in the second it should be marked as there is a lack of info. if the
cause is tagged then you can see it in the editor and then survey it on
ground to look for the sign, or ask somewhere to solve either the
actual name
or if it really does not have a name.<br>
