I think

tag k='wayside' v='true'

for place_of_worship of *any* religion would fit best. If such a tag 
is present then the name should not be required. There could also 
be, however I don't think it would be usefull enough to justify yet 
another tag, a 'form' tag which says if it is a cross, shrine 
(chapel), obelisk or anything else.


BTW, I ve just came back from a countryside where I did some 
mapping, compare

and
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.9763lon=20.4518zoom=13layers=0BFT

and there is a lot of these, un-mapped yet but, nothing's lost ;)

Hi,

 You also find them in the Eichsfeld (Duderstadt/Heiligenstadt) and, maybe,
 around Hildesheim (that's south of Hanover).  Both are regions with
 a high percentage of roman-catholic people.

I bet you'll find them in other catholic regions as well.
BTW: you'll even find wayside_shrines in Greece, which isn't that 
catholic :) .

Best regards,

ce

Hi,

 There was some discussion about this on the list last month, (in a
 thread that started by talking about the Icon tag), and there is now a
 proposed tag as wayside_cross (there is also wayside_shrine).

 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Proposed_features/wayside_cross

ah, thanks for the pointer (and sorry I missed it).

 Wayside crosses are not common in English speaking areas. Well, people
 put small white crosses up were people died in car accidents, but
 that's not the same thing.

Yes, we also have them, but it's not the same. Wayside crosses seem to be a 
speciality in southern de, at and Alsace.

Cheers,

A wayside cross is generally very much not a wayside shrine, of course :-)

 Hi,

 on the german list one inhabitant wondered how to name a proposal for wayside
 crosses:
 http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Croix_monumentale

 How do you call them in english speaking countries? What would you recommend
 for a proposal? An additional tag for place_of_worship or an tag of its own?

 Thanks  best regards,
