There is a mistake naming the streets that affects to most towns in Spain. The mistake is using the preposition "de" between word "Calle" and its name. The 99,9% of -calle- do not have "de". Also in "Avenues" is being used "del", which is incorrect. |

Given that the Spanish community is fairly active and most of the names have either been surveyed locally or are from official sources your claim seems to be a bit exotic.
Have you discussed this at all with the national community?
BTW you didn't actually ask a question.
Spanish mailing list is here: https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-es -- suggest you take the matter up with them, to find out if it is something that has been done deliberately or indeed a frequent mistake! There's a tool called "Overpass Turbo" which could easily be used to identify all streets in a given area that care called "calle de something".
