[talk-ph] Center of Villages and Sub-villages in Maguindanao

[Rally de Leon]

Maning,
node with landuse=residential? okie

although I disagree that a place tag indicates a sign of administration
eg.
place=hamlet (an isolated dwelling in the middle of nowhere)
place=locality (which is commonly used as temp name of a place (which has a
known name), but not necessarily a community)
