G'day all,
	While waiting in the Balranald Bakery yesterday I thought I'd install 
OSMBugs and OSMTracker and see what needed doing in the area.  Since this is 
the first time I've done this, I've a couple of questions.

1/	POI without name: https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1950504127 has a 
brand=Caltex tag.  To fix this one, which is better: change brand of Caltex to 
operator or add operator=Caltex, leaving the brand tag?  Or is the operator 
the proprietor and use the tag name= instead?  Locals just call it 'the 
servo'.  The other Caltex is 'the roadhouse' 
https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/206203789 

2/	Fixme tagged item https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/118043858 is in the 
right place by GPS and the other tags are correct.  Do I just delete the fixme 
tag?  This would also apply for a couple of others.

3/	With the correction needed for: 
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/118043885 to extend the divided road, is it 
better to delete the single section, then add the divided section as 2 ways 
down to Bank St, or move the single section to one side and add a parallel 
way?

	I suppose I'm just looking for the most efficient and consistent way of 
doing things.
