[Talk-ca] Ref tags in Ontario

[Daniel Begin]

AFAIK, it has never been discussed at least on this forum. I consider it as
an error or even vandalism since it does not conform to acceptable rules (1)

 

A similar behavior has been seen a couple of months ago where
user:OntarioEditor added a prefix to ref tag for most primary/secondary
roads in Quebec. I contacted him but never had an answer. The question was
asked on this list by another user about such behavior. Unfortunately, I did
not see any specific answer and his/her edits are still all over the place.

 

Someone has more information? Comments?

I've been noticing that a user has been adding the prefix of 'ON' to the ref
tags on ways recently in Ontario.  Are you starting to do that now, or is
this user in error with the current tagging practices?
