While we sort out the bigger issue, meaning decide what to do, could someone fix Andre's problem?
I am not sure if having no name means having no coordinates. If coordinates exist, we should follow Platonides' suggestion about the name ( "Unknown monument with id <id>"), which sounds like something we could do in the app.

I also think Platonides naming suggestion is a good one, however it is preferable to solve this problem at the data level (either in the monument lists to later get picked up in the db, or just a hack in the db generation scripts), that way it is a universal fix for all app users. If we hack a band-aid fix into the app, it would only be available for folks using the latest version of the app, which means there may continue to be strange errors, etc for folks on outdated app versions. Solving this at the data level means every user (regardless of app version) would see the updated data.
