I generally agree, and there is no problem adding other languages that make sense (e.g. the official language of the country). But it's clear from the statistics that languages lift tile size significantly and we need to look at generalization and general reduction of tile size as well. |
@TomPohys are you sure languages increase the tile size that much? Afterall, most different spellings of the same place are stored just once in a tile... I haven't done the stats though |
right - so including more languages seem like growing by about 1-1.5%? Seems fairly low? |
Compared with e.g.
So adding languages will increase the size of the tiles quite a lot. I am not saying that these languages should not be added. Just an idea to look at some layers where some generalization or reduction could bring some decrease in tile size. Please @claysmalley, create a new PR with your languages, to be more clear and distinguish between your PR (official languages in some countries) and this one (top 25 languages in the US). Thanks |
This PR adds eight missing languages, all of which are among the top 25 languages spoken in the United States, as discussed in ZeLonewolf/openstreetmap-americana#586, and have at least 10,000
