[Talk-ca] Talk-ca Digest, Vol 183, Issue 8

Sun May 14 16:50:19 UTC 2023

Hi Jherome,

Thanks for noting these.

I have just updated the name-suggestion-index <https://nsi.guide/?t=brands> to include the rebranding changes. The name-suggestion-index is used by iD and many other editors to suggest consistent naming, spelling, etc.

Once the NSI updated rolls out, iD will show anything listed with the old branding as a warning. Hopefully this will encourage users to update these listing's if they see them.

EB Games -> Gamestop: https://github.com/osmlab/name-suggestion-index/pull/8141

State Farm -> Desjardins: https://github.com/osmlab/name-suggestion-index/pull/8142

Mac's -> Circle K: https://github.com/osmlab/name-suggestion-index/pull/8143

Thanks for the wiki reference, too. When I have time, I will go through this and see if there are any additional brands missing from the NSI

Thanks!
