If it's a "trouble", then no, it is not "worth it". Use whatever works for you.

Backstabbing is real, for sure. I haven't really learned the "sabotage" thing until I've experienced it too many times to ignore it for my own well-being. The "relative peace and harmony" is achieved by always

It's worth taking a shot at it, at least.

Would you consider making a pull request? Indeed, if it's 50-50 for a name, then there is no solution out of it. If it's close to 90-10, then maybe it is safe to pick the 90%. It depends on the scope of the project, I suppose. Yes

Yes, Sweden, Norway, US, Canada, UK and some other countries often times only include the last name on the street sign, it seems. If you're not immersed in the local culture it is quite hard to figure out who that person is. Again, tha

It is not (fully) automated. What is automated is the parsing of raw street names from openstreetmap. Figuring out which name refers to which person and adding the wikipedia link is done by hand. The errors are due to the lack of missing th

Of course there are issues and limitation. I am only 99% confident in my own country and culture (Romania). That's what we've learnt in school, that is what we know. There is also a strong German and French influence so those name

I think you are referring to ""Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn", directly. I've also considered "Jahn" and "F.-L.-Jahn" to be the same as the above. That is why it goes higher. To 1873, to be exactly. As I am n

I think you are talking about the problem of considering just one person / city. Big cities can have schools, squares, streets, etc all named after a single person. But they will all be considered as a count of 1. So one city of, say,

Jas Steen goes from 200 to 127, without the equivalent.

Yes, Steen is (currently) considered to be the same as Jan Steen. That's the kind of info that I'm missing not being thoroughly knowledgeable with each country's culture. Fortunately, it is easy to remedy from the equivalents

It depends on the quality of the data coming from openstreetmap and on my ability, in this case, to label the streets correctly. This is the raw file, including eponyms, for Iraq, https://github.com/mihaiolteanu/ulitza&

Sure. And when something like Ramda comes along to clean up part of the mess, it's all negativity around here on how hard it is, how weird the code becomes, how team-work is no longer possible (posted two days ago on hn) Meanwhile, cha
