I believe requiring notability is not necessary, at least not as long as

 In many (most ?) countries, the birth and death registers are publicly
 available in the local public office. Genealogists trade data files on
 the internet as if they were TV series. If there's a law in some
 country preventing that kind of information-gathering, I feel it's
 standing on pretty thin ground.

At least in Italy, access to the birth and death registers are
restricted to the person and their immediate relatives, at least 
for the living and IIRC the recently dead.

In theory access is public for old data, altough I don't remember 
the exact cryterion.

 If I find personal data on my own family in OSM, I will
 delete them immediatly without any permission.


I guess you wanted to write asking anyone for permission instead of
permission. You don't have to ask for permission, because you simply do
not need one! This is something we should keep in mind every time someone
wants to add personal data.

For dead people it might be somehow ok (although I myself would never do
that), but for living people it is a complete No-go and - depending on the
data - will be illegal in many countries.

My two cents:
* Data that might be ok: name of the architect of a building, name of
someone famous on his/her house of birth (if it is written on the
building), ...
* Data that is never ok: about living, ordinary people - never.

I was thinking the same until I though about all those war cemeteries of WO

such a cemetery.
But this could be handled with a simple inscription tag, not need for a

Genealogy, tracing family history is big business. Many people do this

public in that it is written and visible in a public place. A example
perfect verifiable data that belongs in OSM.

I may know where relatives who have died within my lifetime are buried,
I can possibly go back a bit further with information from older living
relatives but that is only likely to take me to the right
cemetery/churchyard. Relatives from earlier times take much more
research and having a free and open source of this information can only
benefit many people who are searching for relatives from earlier times.

True personal story: I wanted to visit my grandfather's grave but
never found it in the cemetery. My memory of the burial was lacking,
there was no on-site map, I'm not very comfortable talking with that
side of the familly, and it was only a serendipitous visit.

In my experience, on-site cemetery maps are rare, but I'm sure it
differs from one country to the next.

Of course there's also the case of famous people's graves being
visited by lots of non-relatives, like many in the Cimetière Père
Lachaise in Paris, but that's another story.

It's very different for living people:
* The privacy issue is much bigger
* If you've got a reason to visit somebody, you can certainly contact
hin to know his whereabouts
* We have this neat concept of house numbers and street names to
express an address, which often cannot be used in cemeteries

2014-10-14 Thread Ilya Zverev
Hi! I've noticed today there is an epic voting battle on the fields of
wiki. Hundreds of mappers came to state their disapproval of person
relation type. I wonder how many of them actually mapped one, or even
seen such relations. I found some of them in 2011, and posted an entry
in SHTOSM about such relations. After at least three years, this
proposal is not about new relation type, and you should understand
this.

There are 1648 relations of type=person already in the database. It's
#17 in the taginfo, it has a JOSM plugin and probably some related
websites. The proposal is basically about documenting a relation type.
It either can be found in the wiki, or not. Nobody here has the power
of removing all such relations from the database. Are mappers who add
it allowed to document what they are doing? Right now it seems the
majority of voters thinks otherwise.

Some say, you cannot make something appear in the database just by
passing proposals in the wiki. You should do some mapping first. Well,
poles have been mapping for 4 years. Is it enough? Or should they have
waited another 4 years, so there are 10k relations of this type? It is
a part of OpenStreetMap, whether you like it or not. It won't go away
if you vote no on the proposal, and there won't be less such
relations added. So this is not about a new type. This is about
documenting something that has been mapped for years.

And now, this far into mapping persons in OSM, you should not
prevent documenting established relation types, but help document them
better.

Well, they are plenty of tags in OSM that nobody has ever heard
excepted his creator ... It's not because we don't use a tag that we
cannot give an opinion. And I cannot remember any public discussion
about such 'person' relation type, at least on the international lists
which could explain why it is coming under the spotlight only today.

 There are 1648 relations of type=person already in the database.

But if I believe some feedbacks, most of them have been created by
only three contributors which is tempering the stats.

 The proposal is basically about documenting a relation type.
 It either can be found in the wiki, or not. Nobody here has the power
 of removing all such relations from the database.

The database is the result of our consensus. Of course anyone has the
power to add any thing but others have the same equal power to remove
them. (The question is more about making a mass insert or a mass
delete). If I find personal data on my own family in OSM, I will
delete them immediatly without any permission.

 Some say, you cannot make something appear in the database just by
 passing proposals in the wiki. You should do some mapping first.

You can add new tags directly in the database. And you can write
anything in the wiki. But it does not mean that the whole community
will accept your idea. Some might, some might not, most will ignore
you. This proposal is questionning the limits of OSM, it is not really
related to some physical element on the ground and is about privacy.

 Well,
 poles have been mapping for 4 years. Is it enough? Or should they have

 documenting something that has been mapped for years.

But if the vote (I prefer feedback) is showing that a significant
part of the community does not like the idea, then you cannot refuse
that they will delete one of such relations when they meet one of
them. (mass deletion has to be treated differently)

 And now, this far into mapping persons in OSM, you should not
 prevent documenting established relation types, but help document them
 better.


In one way, you say it is already widely used and in the other way,
you admit it could be better documented. I will show you where we have
problems in the proposal and why a vote process is sometimes better
than simply enforcing an idea.

I copy the description here:
The main purpose of this type=person relation is to link (bind)
different objects describing a person in the data base (such as grave,
memorial place). 

Here clearly, the graves and memorials are mentionned as examples. The
relation could be used for everything related to a person and we find
now such relations linking e.g. a grave with all streets using that
person name. First mistake : it has not been strictly limited to
graves and memorials.

That kind of relation is meant to describe dead persons. For a living
people that kind of relations should be created only if it is
reasonable. 

Second mistake : it has not been strictly limited to dead people. It's
really encouraging contributors to use this relation for everything
related to a person.

Let's assume that good reason for creating that relations is
encyclopedity, that means existing of article about a person on
Wikipedia. 

Third mistake : It is not strictly reserved for notable people and
can be used to name all graves in a cemetery (which might be forbiden
in some countries). Privacy is never mentionned. To solve this, you
could enforce a link to wikipedia because they are already an
encyclopedia and check people notability
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_%28people%29). And

While I'm against the relation as it is curently described in the

tag that (mostly to cater for multi-tenancy tombs; a simpler tagging

On the other hand, the current wiki proposal is ridiculous, in that it
tries to support extended genealogy data (birth/death place/date,
children, religion, etc) which really doesn't belong in OSM, because
it is more about the people than the place.

Even the suggestion of memorials seems ill-advised: you dont want to
put all the Churchill monuments in a relation, and you don't want to
have the war remembrance monuments (In France there's one in pretty
much every village) belonging to 100s of relations. Maybe the
noteworthyness criteria saves us here, I'm not sure.

That said, looking at taginfo[1], the relation doesn't seem to be
misused in practice. 79% tombs, 15% memorials, 4% named_in_honor (not
documented and doesn't make sense to me: the *person* is named in
honor of somebody else ??), and the rest is anectotal. So it's just
the wiki page that is silly flamebait, actual usage is fine :)

Every time I mention importance or similar, everyone gets in a huff, as they

for, you know, road levels, and where they go and where they intersect) but 
having some kind of opinion based tag, though verifiable by other local 
mappers, is not allowed.  For some reason.  So things that should be rendered 
at zoom level 9 - like prominent or notable peaks, and things that should be 
rendered at very high zoom levels - like the tens of thousands of little named 
hills just in my area of japan, get rendered in a confusing soup of triangles. 
Because making that decision is unverifiable, so we have to let the map be 
shitty for the sake of the tagging, which seems really backwards. 

Making a good map is about choosing what is important to be shown at what zoom, 
and Unless there are varying levels of tags, then we rely on the mapper simply 
to not tag things to avoid confusion. Which seems counterproductive.  

I imagine the landmark tag is as close as we got.

In many (most ?) countries, the birth and death registers are publicly

The noteworthyness issue is independant of the privacy question. And

 A lot of people mentioned Wikidata. Do you know the rules of Wikidata? There

This is another question but not about this relation. We have to be

 Birthday, family, description, etc. If you check examples, it is
 reused to add every details of a person live (memorial, named streets)


Yes, it's not in proposal. I bet no one asked author about intentions.


  A lot of people mentioned Wikidata. Do you know the rules of Wikidata?
 There
  are notability rules[1], so it's simply not possible to store information
  about every person there.

 This is another question but not about this relation. We have to be
 careful about creating a database of named people (and their
 relationship) when they are not celebrities. Even for dead people, it
 can be conditioned to local legislation.


Sure. We can drop information about relationship (it's probably not even
used). But what we are having is data from public space, I doubt there will
we any problems. But maybe British law is really harsh, I don't know.

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - Voting - relation type=person

I think OSM isn't a place for this. Number of the grave should be enough,
and naming people in the grave (if they are not famous) looks like data for
other databases. What are other uses for this relation type? Home of a
person, workplace of a person, current location of a person?

Number of grave? What do you mean? Number of grave is not visible on the
grave.
What if there are several people in the grave (with different names)?
Semicolons?
