According to Wikipedia, 30% of Belarusian can write Belarusian, 50% can speak and read. How can 70% of the population actively contribute to OSM if they cannot write the most frequently displayed text tag (name) in Belarusian? -- Mariusz ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
Re: [Tagging] How to tag entire group of rentable holiday cottages?

I know about cases with just 2 and big groups, 25 in one place. How it should be tagged? I found https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dchalet that is for a single one. There is an old edit error present on this page. The "This could apply to nodes (single chalet) or areas (a group of chalets)." is incorrectly placed in "Tags used in combination" instead of "How to map" chapter.

Re: [Tagging] one feature one element

Move the tags to the area object and delete the point." This is common and widly accepted practice. Don't try to change mappers behaviour by editing wiki. Also, there is no contradiction. From wiki: "It means one on-the-ground real world feature should be mapped with only one OSM element. " That it - no multiple osm objects for one real world feature. It is fine to map multiple real objects with one osm element, especially if you don't have enough data to map them seperately. If the same feature is tagged with building=* and another feature like shop=* or office=*, it's ambiguous whether other tags like name=* represent the building itself or the other feature. Nothing new, this problem already existed with roads and bridges and was fixed by putting bridge name into bridge:name tag. While it's common to tag single-use buildings in this way, it isn't the best practice, because of this ambiguity. Users should not be encouraged to delete all single node objects within buildings without carefully considering each of the tags. That's true. POI and building may have more identical tags, for example "start_date" or "operator". Moreover, you recently edited many times https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element and some newly introduced things are controversial: *"Ideally, every OSM element or object should be tagged with only one main feature tag, to represent a single on-the-ground feature." I've never heard of such rule. It doesn't seemed to be correct. It is against KISS principle and it is not how mappers map. For example, there is nothing wrong in placing tags "landuse=industrial + barrier=fence" on one osm way. Doing it as 2 ways would even give you a warning in JOSM (ways in the same position). *"For example, use the feature leisure=picnic_site with the property tag drinking_water=yes, instead of using the separate feature tag amenity=drinking_water on the same node or area." This example is a bad idea and mappers shouldn't be encouraged to do so. amenity=drinking_water is far more popular tag and replacing it with drinking_water=yes may hurt data consumers.

Using this value with the plain access key, {{tag|access|designated}}, has no meaning, and should '''not''' be used. ''(see [[#Transport mode restrictions]])'' This is obviously incorrect change, as this page is about all access keys, not single "access" tag. The notation he used suggests that the value "designated" is deprecated. The wording is inconvenient, the strike-through font for designated is misleading. On https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:access%3Ddesignated, Verdy_p added a banner saying "NOTE! The exact key/value combination access=designated should never appear on an object. The value *=designated must be used with a specific mode of transport. Examples: bicycle=designated or foot=designated." - he made this change without any change comment. The user rafmar (you?) seems to have assumed that Verdy_p wanted to discourage the use of all "designated" values, but to be fair to Verdy_p, the banner explicitly says you SHOULD use the "designated" value, just not with the "access" key. I'm pretty sure he wanted discouraged only "access=designated", not foot=designated or bicycle=designated, but he failed. Unfortunately, this wiki article is for all *=designated tags, as the foot/bicycle/horse tag pages redirect to that page. Some changes are necessary, but not that kind. BUT in this particular case, rafmar's complaint seems to be unfounded and based on a misunderstanding. Imagine, you are beginner and want to find if it is ok to use foot=designated tag. What wiki page says so now? Mariusz/rafmar ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
