Yes. Generally I think that non-Western map styles are completely neglected in OSM, but I have no idea to change that. How can we get in touch with the people who define the rendering styles? Somehow it seems to me (from the perspective of an ordinary user) that they are some kind of “gods”, who choose abritarily what is done and what is not.</blockquote>

<br></div><div style>Before talking about getting Japanese/Korean style features rendered on the OSM.org standard map, someone should first demonstrate it is possible, but making sure an appropriate tagging system is in place and creating a map style. For this last part definitely look into TileMill, which can also load the openstreetmap-carto style.</div>
