 Where in place of animal you must write the English common name of animal
 bred. This is simple and maintains consistency with animal_shelter and
 animal_boarding.
 If you want to specify the scientific name, you can add other tags like
 taxon=* or species=* or genus=*.
 Is this a good deal?

Sorry, I was wrong with the specific example dog. Though I have to say,
that cat is unclear weather your are talking about the species house
cat or the genus cat, the same with horses as the Mongolian horse and
the domestic wild horse are different species. The dictionary should
not mention a single species but show the differences.

Still the main point remains as there are already established tags why
not using them and if there is a problem with latin names you can still
use language code as subkey (e.g. species:ru=*)

Please, do not get me wrong. We had a similar discussion with plants
(e.g. trees) two years ago and I just wanted to get it right from the
beginning, this time.

Voting is pointless and gives tags an air or importance they do not deserve - 
there are *no* approved tags, just tags people use. Discussing and documenting 
tags is good, but voting is just daft, especially when the quorum is just 15 
out of about 15000 regular mappers.

If you like the tag and find it useful, use it.

I think you can treat it as approved. The requirement is has found
enough support - the 8 unanimous votes or 15 votes with majority
approval are explicitly only there as a rough example, not a strict rule
themselves.

In my opinion, relatively decent participation (11 votes) with only one
opponent, whose argument has even been taken into account and who is
unresponsive now, can clearly be considered enough support. It doesn't
make any sense to insist that you should find 4 more persons who oppose
your proposal before it can be considered approved...

 if you end voting now it means that your proposal is rejected for
 absence of interest (must have at least 15 votes).

The rules are not as strict as you suggest here.

Documentation is much more important and you still talk about species and
later are mentioning dog/cat/horse which are genera. Please, once
more, use
the already existing tags genus=*, species=* and taxon=*.

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - Voting - Animal_breeding

2013-06-16 Thread Alberto
Martin and Chris opinions are opposite but both true.
I thought voting could be a chance to put attention on the proposal, but it
seems that few people care about it.
On the other hand that proposal doesn't conflict with other tags, so I could
simply create a wiki page to document it and bypass voting as Chris
suggests.
So what should I do, extend voting or not?
Alberto

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - Voting - Animal_breeding

 What your are talking about are genus not species see:
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:genus
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:species

You can specify a single species or many species together. Species is not
intended to be in scientific language but in common language, for
simplicity.
The tag is consistent with animal_shelter and animal_boarding where in
species you could specify dog or mammal or little_mammal or pet or
sea_bird or sea_turtle: so a scientific classification is not
appropriate here, and would discourage the common mapper.


 Landuse=grass seems to be to general better use meadow.

Yes, landuse=grass is general for grass area for example in a dog or cat
breeding. If the grass area is used to feed animals, landuse=meadow or
better landuse=farmland should be used, but probably it would be outside the
breeding facility itself. However, ok, I will put a link to landuse=meadow
or landuse=farmland too.

Thank you for your comments.
Cheers
