[Imports] Rif: Re: Import Civic House Numbers in Sondrio

[Stefano.Losa at setesrl.it]

Thanks for response, I try to answer the various questions

I've seen many import projects in Italy used the type=import tag in the 
past, so we used the same.

Anyway I have no problem in using import=yes instead, but I really would 
like evidence that it is used by some major QA tools, otherwise the use of 
another tag does not provide any gain.

This is just so obvious we didn't specify it in the wiki page ;-)

This topic has been discussed with you several times. In Italy, a 
housenumber is "a unique number that identifies an external access that 
from the road leads directly or indirectly to houses, shops, offices, 
garages, etc". It's not a rule of OSM or an opinion, it's something that 
derives from country legislation. I understand it's different from several 
other countries, but we should take it for granted and consider it also 
necessary e.g. an housenumber tag on a building outline will never 
accommodate a building that has several entrances with different numbers, 
as happens very frequently.

The wiki page was amended to make clear that the import data is only 
related to the hamlets in the municipal area and not the main city. 

Your examples are out of scope of this import because they are in Sondrio 
and not in a hamlet. Even though they are clearly wrongly tagged.

It seems to me the only building affected is the following one:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/267833740

Please also note that not only it is wrong that this building has an 
address, but the address is also outdated.

Stefano and support team
