IMHO it also depends on context, if you are in a monumental setting with everything huge, a 5 meter stone cross might be just a small insignificant part of it, and could eventually be considered a memorial by the mapper, if instead this is an isolated feature I would be more inclined to map it as monument.

Re: [Tagging] Tagging of historic=monument
In Croatia historic=monument is often wrongly used to tag all types of sculptures. Only a dedicated icon for sculptures (tourism=artwork + artwork_type=sculpture) can fix that.

Re: [Tagging] Tagging of historic=monument
The problem may relate in part to Germany, where a natural monument is a thing. Also in the USA the tag is ambiguous. historic=memorial perhaps better fits the definition. But even then there are many small memorials and roadside plaques that could reasonably be tagged historic=memorial or historic=monument, but don't seem to match your definition well. It would help if the agency certifying the monument were identified per http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/heritage For example: heritige=2 historic=memorial heritage:operator=nhrp ref:nrhp=nhrp=07001063 ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
[Tagging] Tagging of historic=monument
Dear all, Openstreetmap-carto (the default rendering style on openstreetmap.org) will soon render objects tagged historic=monument with an icon. There is currently a large number of objects incorrectly tagged as historic=monument. The definition of historic=monument according to the wiki: 'A memorial object, especially large (one can go inside, walk on or through it) and made of stone, built to remember, show respect to a person or group of people or to commemorate an event'. Note that this tag should not be used for national heritage buildings (called listed buildings in some countries). The word 'monument' does not have this meaning in English. Instead, historic=yes, the heritage key, or the listed_status key could be used for such buildings: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:listed_status http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/heritage It would be good to correct as many incorrectly tagged objects as possible before the tag is rendered. This map can be helpful for that: http://www.historic.place/themes/monuments/map.html See https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/1532 for the discussion on Github. -- Matthijs ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Re: [Tagging] Tagging of historic=monument
There is confusion between monument and memorial ... suggest follow the definitions under the OSM tag historic .. where monument is large ... as in you can walk inside it, over it. memorial is small .. say a plaque I have re-tagged some of the 'monuments' to 'memorials' where I am familiar with them. They became eveident due to my use of OAMand that renders these tags. If other renders were to do the same then more mappers would be aware of the problem and it would be corrected with local knowledge. So rendering these without any correction will lead to corrections taking place as required with the best knowledge - that of the locals. - Off topic On 7/05/2015 11:18 AM, Bryce Nesbitt wrote: It would help if the agency certifying the monument were identified per http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/heritage That proposal has no listings for Australia (possibly www.*nationaltrust*.org.au/ ?) and ignores British www.*nationaltrust*.org.uk/ ?
