Summary0002552: Geonames service starts to deliver strange names for city
DescriptionWhen reverse geotagging geonames.org produces things like "City (Stadt) = Schwenk Zement GmbH & Co.KG" and "Location (Ort) = Ulm" instead of the old version "City=Ulm" and "Location=Ulm".
I am pretty sure that the problem is somewhere deep inside. If I login to geonames.org and start the search there "Schwenk Zement GmbH & Co.KG" is not in the database. So where does this annoying bug come from?
Steps To ReproducePut the location marker to the central region of Ulm
Reverse geocode
TagsNo tags attached.

I think I'm seeing the same thing. The correct result is down the list after several businesses. Maybe there's a filter option that needs to be implemented in Geosetter when it invokes the Geoname API?
