[Tagging] New tag proposal Amenity=meditation centre
(reply to message at http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2012-September/011278.html ) I am wondering whether this tag might be used for something like Christian Science Reading Room locations. Though not really a 'meditation center', such a location aims to provide an alternative to a formal church for people of a particular faith to gather. --ceyockey Christian Science Reading Room on Wikipedia -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Science_Reading_Room ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

It should be of interest for mappers to tag this feature. To formalize this there is need for a definition and a tag, both of which there could be some discussion. My guess is that there are other names for meditation centres and that there might be some confusion if it is only those explicitly named centres that should have this tag or if there is some kind of requirement of size or accessability. Two alternative taggings to amenity=meditation_centre could be amenity=place_of_meditation (obviously copied from amenity=place_of_worship) or when we are at it maybe amenity=meditation. There are probably many views on meditation, but without knowing much about it I guess the different forms and uses of meditation could be explained with further tagging of different attributes on the same feature. I can mention that there are a proposal on how to tag the healthcare-oriented meditation http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Healthcare_2.0 Good luck ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

2012/9/2 Michael P panc...@gmail.com: Apologies for the newcomer defects, Im still trying to get the hang of wikis and editing in opensteetmap. Any help would be appreciated if I can be shown the mistakes and/or suggestions to improve my participation. I believe I created a new proposal discussion page at: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Meditation_centre_tag Thank you for creating a proposal. IMHO the proposed namespace (amenity) could work well for your subject. I suggest you align your syntax to the general tagging syntax (no capital letters, no spaces in formal tags), so Amenity=Meditation Centre would become amenity=meditation_centre (or place_of_meditation like Johan suggested). it is also desirable to have proposals in the proposal namespace in the wiki (an URL starting with http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/.. ), so it gets instantly clear that it is a proposal. You can find more information how a proposal should look like here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/ and here http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Creating_a_proposal cheers, Martin ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Yes worship is different from meditation . On a related note , How do we tag small shrines like a stone slab which gets devotees but in a very less number ?
