> Quick question about roundabouts. (junction=roundabout)

> Originally, I didn't name roundabout junctions, but when I validate my
> work in JOSM, it identifies them as 'Unnamed Ways' in the warnings section.
>
> I've tried naming a few using the name of the primary road that connects
> with the junction. The validation warnings disappear, however, the
> rendered work looks messy as the streets AND roundabouts get named at
> close zooms.

> for an example.

> I've had a look at the wiki information on junctions, however there
> doesn't seem to be any information about whether to name or not to name
> the junctions ( see
> http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:junction%3Droundabout )
>
> Any advice or comments ?
