Renaming of small towns

Post by Teddy2kk
What are the best practices when it comes to renaming entire towns?

Example: Rosedale, BC, which is a small town just east of Chilliwack, BC. According to Waze, the whole area is labelled as Chilliwack, but according to Canada Post, the area is actually labelled as Rosedale.

As a level 3 editor, is there really anything that I can personally do? In the Waze world, should it simply be left as Chilliwack?

CanadaPost is not necessarily the most up to date.

Check to see if Rosedale still exists -- it may have been amalgamated into Chilliwack (and few people noticed).
