[Talk-us] Population during mandatory evacuations

[Minh Nguyen]

(Crossposted to the talk-us and tagging lists.)

Due to the ongoing Camp Fire in Northern California [1], the place POI 
for the town of Paradise got tagged with population=0 before the change 
was reverted. Following some discussion about this changeset in OSMUS 
Slack [2], I started a discussion on the wiki about preferring more 
stable population figures over supposition about temporary 
circumstances. [3]
