Sometimes there are clusters of other objects with descriptive names, but these can be found independently.<br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">And yes "Viewpoint" can be signed but it does not make it a name, like "Viewpoint, entry 5 euro" is not a name either. Or "Viewpoint, no wheelchair access".<br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Note <a href="https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/is-name-toilet-even-theorethically-valid-for-amenity-toilets/105540">https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/is-name-toilet-even-theorethically-valid-for-amenity-toilets/105540</a> where it was discussed<br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">I propose to run automated cleanup for viewpoints. It would remove name=viewpoint (and name=Viewpoint and name=VIEWPOINT) from objects tagged only as viewpoints. <br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Note that this relies on assumption that object tagged like<br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">- tourism=viewpoint<br></div><div dir="auto">- name=Viewpoint<br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">is always case of misusing name tag.<br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Objects which carry unexpected tags or tags not typical for viewpoints, or note/fixme tags will be skipped.
