Remove "place together with addr:*" for places with only addr:postcode

[anonymous]

Please add exception for addr:postcode because we are using it in Poland for places (mainly villages) where is only one postcode. Thank you.

I think ​Key:postal_code is the correct key to use on place nodes or relations.

Couldn't JOSM fix addr:postcode → postal_code for cases like this?
I use a rule to change this in streets here in Brazil (and after reading this bug report I will also add another one for areas with place)

Agreed. Can you please share these rules so we will include them in core?

What we use:

way[highway]["addr:postcode"],
area[place]["addr:postcode"] {
        throwWarning: tr("improper use of {0}", "{1.key}");
        suggestAlternative: "postal_code";
        fixChangeKey: "{1.key} => postal_code";
}

But I see some possible issues/improvements:

• we are not testing for this, but an area or highway could be possibly (and erroneously) tagged with both addr:postcode and postal_code:
  • remove addr:postcode if both values are the same
  • just warn when the values are different
• likewise, !area and !highway with both keys:
  • remove postal_code if the same
  • warn if different

Should area[landuse] also be tested for this?

fix #11491 - add/enhance validator rules for postcode/postal_code/addr:postcode

[Klumbumbus]

A test for place together with addr:postcode with autofix addr:postcode=>postalcode is risky, because in some cases not the addr:postcode tag is wrong, but the place tag. See e.g. ​way/233908425 or ​node/439184883.

I think not. wiki(Key:place) says: "Probably better to use the Karlsruhe Schema instead of this tag." so why not? De facto people using same tag for same meaning entity, either on buildings and on places/their boundaries.

Russia(and some rus-speaking exUSSR) are de-facto using addr:postcode on place. Pls see ru-wiki for tag "place":

In 11548/josm:

fix #14310, see #11491, see #9811 - don't warn about addr:postcode together with place=* (used this way in some countries)

(If this combination is "wrong" in your country you can add a country specific rule at https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Rules with a territory selector.)
