Hi,
A user of the Nominatim geocoder noted that there's no place
called 'Silicon Valley' in OpenStreetMap.
In old changesets I found it existed at some point
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/1950908 with center
point University Avenue, Palo Alto.
Arguably the center could also be the
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HP_Garage
https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1710414037
but I found it more surprising it doesn't exist at all.
San Francisco Bay Area, with alt_name=Bay Area exists as a
region
https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2157162589
Can I go ahead and create a similar node for Silicon
Valley? Just want to make sure there weren't past
discussions or even edit wars I missed.
thx
