Sorry. I don't understand exactly what you mean. Is this OSM Analysis
or 'ITO Map source:name' that you are referring to? If it is OSM
Analysis then could you spell out what exactly you want us to be doing
that we are not doing?

I also realise now that ITO Map source names should probably recognise
 'name:cy' and 'name:gd' and also 'source:name:cy' and
'source:name:gd'. Will take a look at that soon.
