"
On the other hand, do not tag names that do not exist. An unremarkable
village somewhere in Poland might have only one name (recorded in {{tag|name}}).
In all other languages, this village would be called by its Polish name, because it
has no other name. Just because all other languages use the Polish name,
you should not add <code>name:<lang_code></code> tags for all other
languages containing the Polish name!
"

adding name:xx tags duplicating the original name tag may be still appropriate
in other cases, especially where there are other name:lang tags

for example https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/449696
carries name:pl=Kraków and name=Kraków and it is fine
and useful (otherwise deducing Polish name of this 
feature would be obnoxious, and in some cases such complex
method would result in faulty results or be impossible at all)
