Thanks for the flagpole additions. I'll use them (especially the wikidata Q-numbers) as reference in future.
However, unless the UK flag is flown from a ship, then it's called the Union Flag, not the Union Jack.

You can give me too much credit because it's the tagging recommended by the ID.
I did, however, look into it to fix the recommended tagging in ID. According to the Flag Institute ( it advises the UK government and the UN), they are interchangeable.

Apologies for the delay; only just noticed your reply.
“it's the tagging recommended by the ID.”
Ah (I've never used iD). The (JOSM-based) presets used by Vespucci need to be updated, it seems.
“[Union (Jack|Flag)] are interchangeable”
That may be descriptive of common usage, but not necessarily correct prescriptive usage.
If they're interchangeable, then would be better to use the more accurate term.

Re http://www.osm.org/node/8920349303 (bus stop)
public_transport=platform makes no sense in Jersey (except at the bus station). There are is no platform of any kind at the stop.
public_transport=stop_position was set given source:public_transport=survey: sign .
