General consensus seems to be that having two tags for the same concept is worse than having a single, reasonably well-defined tag for it. I'll go with amenity=doctors despite the slightly sloppy language. It's more common, and it's implemented in two major pieces of software already. I shouldn't have referred to what I'll be doing as a "bot". Really I'd only want a one-off change, achieved through whatever means is simplest, whether that be a script or a manual edit from a XAPI query (if that's deemed safe by Those Who Know). No long-running things; I fully agree that some recent automated edits and bots have been pretty ill-conceived. -- Andrew Chadwick _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
