Canada Post/Postes Canada `amenity=post_box` entries should be merged
The current suggestion to have a different tagging for Quebec and the rest of Canada has been replaced with a harmonized bilingual approach. The consensus agreed on the talk-ca mailing list is as follows:
amenity=post_box
operator:en=Canada Post
operator:fr=Postes Canada
operator:wikidata=Q1032001
Ref: https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-ca/2021-September/010097.html
Reading through that thread, it looks like some people suggested removing operator=*
in favor of just operator:en=*
and operator:fr=*
while others were fine with leaving the French operator
in Quebec and the English operator
in the rest of Canada in addition to the multilingual operator tags. Since NSI entries in the operators tree require an operator
tag, I think it would make more sense to add the multilingual operators to both entries. Merging these could cause a conflict of what to put as the displayName
(these currently aren't translatable: #5982) and operator
Then I'd suggest a separate JSON list for Quebec Canada and some other bilingual countries
