Hi EdSS, I believe it is standard practice to expand abbreviations. See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Abbreviation#Abbreviation_.28don.27t_do_it.29
I've corrected some of your edits on I 88, but you may want to go back and check your work if you've done so elsewhere.
Thanks for your improvements to OSM!

Comment from EdSS
Hi zeromap, This is not an earthshaking issue but I do have to take exception to your comment. Your abbreviation reference to at the Names section of the Wiki. However Destination is something different. The Destination section of the Wiki says unequivocally "Value: Just take the text of the signpost" which I agree is best. I think the map would be improved if you roll back your changes.
Your efforts are also appreciated!

I appreciate the response! Many people don't bother. May I suggest we move the conversation here?
