[talk-au] Caltex on name-suggestion-index

[Charles Gregory]

Are "Caltex" and "Caltex Woolworths" identical in some parts of Australia?

I'm asking because I'm matching a few brands of local chains on OSM, and
notice that Caltex entries default to Woolworths Petrol.

The NSI info seems to have both using "brand=Caltex" but the Woolworths
ones take priority in Australia:

http://osmlab.github.io/name-suggestion-index/brands/amenity/fuel.html

"amenity/fuel|Caltex": {
"tags": {
"amenity": "fuel",
"brand": "Caltex",
"brand:wikidata": "Q277470",
"brand:wikipedia": "en:Caltex",
"name": "Caltex"
}
},

"amenity/fuel|Woolworths Petrol": {
"countryCodes": ["au"],
"nomatch": [
"shop/convenience|Woolworths Petrol"
],
"tags": {
"amenity": "fuel",
"brand": "Caltex",
"brand:wikidata": "Q5023980",
"brand:wikipedia": "en:Caltex Woolworths",
"name": "Woolworths Petrol"
}
},

I'm thinking it might be a local idiosyncrasy - there are a range of Caltex
stations near me in southern Tasmania - some are owned/co-branded under a
local company (Bennetts Petroleum), some are Caltex Woolworths branded, and
there may be others which are neither.

Any input welcome!
