Maybe using the service namespace to create more specific tags would be

I see from the page history that I added service=* to the wiki page, but
I'm sorry to say I cannot remember exactly why. :( While service=* is
definitely in use with car repair shops, it does seem to create the
possibility of confusion. I'd be happy to at least change the wording to
indicate this,

I haven't followed this thread but Janko's comment reminded me that of

Dear all,
We have currently two tags with a closely related, if not identical,

Is there a difference between these two tags, or should we deprecate

When I think of a stationery shop, I think of something like a FedEx Office
minus the copiers and shipping. When I think of an office supply store, I
think of something like Office Depot, Office Max or Staples, which also
sell office furniture, computers, adding machines, filing cabinets, etc.
At least in the USA, mall usually refers to a group of stores around a
pedestrian-only courtyard, often with a common roof over both the stores and
the courtyard space, and sharing a common parking lot. Shopping center usually
refers to a linear or C-shaped group of stores, with a common
