[Page Update] Places: Named Residences
There are a few countries in the world which do not use numbered addresses for home residences. There may even be a US territory which does this, but I can't locate it right now. These countries use names like "Red House, <street name>" which have no chance of being properly entered into the House Numbering scheme.
I propose that the global guidance for Places include the explicit guidance on using the Residence category for specifying house locations in places where this is the default/standard addressing scheme. These would also be created as Point Places, as almost all residences are too small for an Area. And, since this is about search/navigation and not visibility on the map per se, then a Point Place is reasonable.
I don't have any draft text to include yet, nor examples to post. Let's discuss. And, anyone who lives where named houses are use, please include your feedback, experience, ideas or support here.
