The old Mapnik XML based stylesheets have been retired. The catch-alls that were the cause of many of these names have been removed. |

I recently added a bunch of relations for political boundaries (wards and Parliamentary constituencies) in the London Borough of Southwark. The names for these are now being rendered on the map, which I think is confusing:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.4658&lon=-0.0678&zoom=14&layers=M
These aren't commonly used names, they are positioned in odd places due to the oddities of political boundaries, and they often duplicate actual place names (for example Peckham towards the centre top of the above map and East Dulwich towards the centre bottom).
They shouldn't be rendered at all, they are useful for specialist maps but not the main osm.org map.
The tagging on the relations is:
boundary = political
political_division = ward OR parl_const
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
