add name field to beach preset#417
Conversation

I am wondering: From your list of examples …
… those don't sound to me like values that should be place in the nave field instead. Another approach could be, to add a translated list of surface values to the preset which suggest the list from the wiki "sand, gravel, pebbles, stones, shells". AFAIK that would make iD suggest this list primarily and not show the taginfo top-x-list anymore. However, AFAIK it would still allow for custom values for edge cases. Just for reference: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/natural=beach#combinations gives surface as the top combination and name right after. So I don't see any reason not to add it; but still think it will not solve the initial problem.

Sorry, to clarify: this PR won't prevent tags like The problem that this solves is every other examples in those lists, such as |
It's weird how this preset has the
surfacetag at the top, instead ofname. I've seen multiple mappers accidently add the name into thesurfacefield, because it's the top one.It's hard to determine how many of these errors have been made, but taginfo alone suggests there are over 1001 that have gone unnoticed. It's also not clear whether these were caused by iD.
