Waze: outsmarting traffic together
https://www.waze.com/forum/
Some Spanish speaking countries do not capitalize the articles which go with their road names, but in the USA, we typically do, especially at the beginnings of road names. I typically make it a rule to follow the local signage where possible (the small blades signs on street corners, which are less often abbreviated or stylized than the guide signs posted overhead). If the street corner signs are all caps, I'll use Title Case as a fallback for the road names. One of the more common exceptions to the capitalization rule is where the article or preposition falls in the middle of a name, such as "Camino del Sol". This often holds true with English road names as well. Signage varies for "Ave of the Stars" in Los Angeles, but it looks natural with traditional title case, where "el Paseo Rojo" looks a bit off to American eyes.

I often see these not capitalized outside of mapping environments. Should these be "corrected" based on typical English structure?
Validator does flag them.
I meant highlighted errors in connected footpaths and roads (for example).Olestas wrote:What do you mean?
Yes, i know, but Validator highlights them as not correct. This is why I'm asking for script update...Olestas wrote:Well.. this is not an error actually.. it is needed in some places for routing purposes..

Let me know if you still would like to get those checks back for UK.
