I am not the one saying OpenStreetMap is making a special exception only for Crimea, the secretary of OpenStreetMap said it. I agree with the secretary that an exception is being made.
You are right that this exception is not all-encompassing of everything pertaining to Crimea.
- avar 5y agoI was replying to your claim that "a street name, a city, a city name etc. are determined by who currently has control on the ground [...] the sole exception to this is the Crimea". The linked page specifically addresses this, and shows that you're wrong about that. If the Russians update a street sign in Crimea it's OSM general policy that the data should be updated to reflect that. You then moved the goal post to there being some specific exception to general policies relating to Crimea. That's true, but nobody in this thread claimed that wasn't the case. I'm saying that you're misrepresenting those exceptions.
