[Talk-ko] Fixing inconsistent/missing korean/romanized/english names

[Thierry Bézecourt]

I was thinking about using Overpass queries to find elements which name 
doesn't look 100% Korean, and then export the results to JOSM for manual 
handling. For example:

     http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/9yf

(This query finds highways which "name" starts with a Latin letter or 
contains an opening parenthesis. It's not perfect, but it probably finds 
most of the streets that do not follow the naming convention.)

A tool could be written to do that semi-automatically; e.g. find 
highways where
     "name=SOME_HANGEUL (SOME_LATIN_CHARS)" and "name:en" is empty
and, after confirmation by a human, set:
     "name=SOME_HANGEUL" / "name:ko=SOME_HANGEUL" / 
"name:en=SOME_LATIN_CHARS"

But I don't think it's an urgent task as long as openstreetmap.org 
doesn't let users choose the language.
