[Talk-us-massachusetts] Admin boundary tagging

[Wayne Emerson, Jr.]

1. Our admin boundary relations have an addr:county=* tag which gets 
flagged by JOSM as suspicious. While updating boundary geometry should I 
remove these tags? Why was this tag added?

2. Also some boundary relations have a place=town/city tag. But all 
cities & towns also have a node with this same tag. It seems to be the 
node that is used to render the town name in OSM-Carto. Is it wrong to 
duplicate place=* tags on both the place node as well as the boundary 
relation?

3. Sometimes both boundary relation & place node will be tagged with 
wikidata & population tags. The most common scheme seems to be to put 
the wikidata on the relation, and put the population on the place=* 
node. Anyone have different ideas on this?

4. When I update boundary geometry with the new Sept 2019 MassGIS data, 
I had been putting source on changeset. But now I wonder if putting 
source tag on lines also might be helpful.

Thanks, - Wayne
