Missing names on nodes (importer not considering multilingual names?)

[opyh]

It seems there are many nodes that have null values as names, for example in http://wheelmap.org/api/nodes?bbox=100.47211034315237,13.78323982481387,100.5647266871044,13.87317184424734&api_key=[API_KEY_HERE].

Looking at OpenStreetMap, they do have a multilingual name attribute. Are multilingual names supported? If not, the import should at least consider using a multilingual name if it's the only name that exists, and maybe prioritize a en: name over other existing languages.

Thank you @opyh .. just FYI see this image, our search for public_transfer is returning results but most don't have a name, and one has the name in Thai. I don't know how to interrogate OpenStreetMap and their name attribute that you refer to, so I don't think I'm going to help you investigate this without learning a lot more myself about OSM data. Interesting that those that have a name have it in Thai and not the English transliteration (which are very common here, every station has the Thai and English version signposted on them).

I have resorted to using the Category name when the Node name is null as you suggested.

An example search is http://wheelmap.org/api/nodes?bbox=100.47211034315237,13.78323982481387,100.5647266871044,13.87317184424734&api_key=API_KEY and search for 'public_transfer' in the results.
