Hi. For specific location (i.e. town called Lebane that is located in Serbia outside the disputed region of Kosovo), the Facebook (which is using OpenStreetMap) displays wrong country information - Kosovo instead of Serbia (Lebane, Kosovo 16230). When checking Wikidata and OpenSourceMap information about this town, the is_in property value is set to Serbia. How this false information occurs and how to change it? |

Facebook uses some OSM data but other data sources as well. You'll have to contact Facebook to get this sorted. As far as I can see the maps on Facebook are all correctly showing Lebane in Serbia. It's just other contexts where it says Kosovo. So very likely that information is coming from a different data source. There is a village Lebane north of Prishtine in Kosovo. Maybe Facebook is mixing up data.

OSM is geospatially aware. The 'is_in' tag is redundant, it's usage is in decline. |
