Dear mboeringa,

We have received a complaint about this change of the tag capital from "yes" to "2".

The OSM community has agreed de facto on this tagging: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:capital#How_to_map

Moreover, it's not true that "other country capitals" are tagged as capital=2 instead of capital=yes. Just check Paris (https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/17807753) or London (https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/107775) as just two examples.

I have changed the value of capital back to "yes" for Madrid city node, and added admin_level=2, although this last tag is not really needed, as capital=yes implies already admin_level=2.

In case you disagree, please get in touch with the OSM local community before any change to the map.

Best regards,

Rafael Avila Coya, on behalf of OSM Foundation, Data Working Group.
