I don't hate the phone tag because if it's name and want to fight
everyone so they have to type contact:phone because I want to utterly
eliminate phone. That's silly.

The goal is quantifiable and usable data.

If the end of this discussion is explicit tags for edge cases, and
phone only used for the contact phone number that's fine by me. Sure it
might look better with a contact: namespace and be easier to describe,
but that doesn't matter. It's the definitions that do.

I thought this mailing list was the official avenue for disusing,
changing and adding tags in OSM. I didn't realise you had to get the
editor permission.

I don't have any arguments against automated edits, bulk edits, machine
assisted edits. In any dataset they are needed, especially one this
massive. But it's not a fight I have the effort to fight right now.

That's just one edge case with the phone tag. Another one being phone
on parking. Is that the number you call to pay, or is it the number you
call to contact the operator because there is something wrong.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ who knows.

I believe there are more edge cases we still aren't thinking of, and if
we aren't the user agents defiantly aren't.

But "gradually deprecating" means that this tags will be eliminated,
what seems to me to have the same meaning as "wanting to get rid of".

Whatever it will done in 24 hours or 24 years is not changing that goal
of tag deprecation is to utterly eliminate it.

If you are managing taxis and motorcycle taxis then surely you know
you have to check which is which. Which tag is used to check for them
is immaterial.

Similarly if you were doing an analysis of surface area devoted to
public parking then you also need to know to check for
access!=private. If you're doing an analysis of mobility options then
you need to know to check for wheelchair tag, etc.

The only advantage of a separate top-level amenity=motorcycle_taxi tag
is that it won't show up for people who don't know the difference. But
if they don't know the difference, they're likely in an area where
motorcycle taxis don't exist.

This is going around in circles. I hope whoever wanted more discussion
before voting is satisfied ;)

And yet you, and others, keep saying it.  "Deprecate" means "express
disapproval of."  In the context of OSM, it means "phase out."  That is,
eradicate with the passage of time.  It may not be what you mean, but
it's what you keep saying.

Replacing tags isn't easy.  There is inertia from various parties involved.
Carto has a rule of "no aliases."  Which means that however compelling
you feel that replacing a=b with x=y is a good idea, they'll almost
certainly
reject it because "no aliases."  The editor people have their own foibles,
too,
but they're more likely to decide they don't like a=b or x=y and go with
p=q.

Oh, and there's all the legacy usage you have to clean up, except

I am far from convinced that a contact phone number is not a phone number.
If I see a phone=* on a phone box I know it is not a contact number.  If
I see a phone=* on a business I know it's a contact phone number for
the business.  What extra utility does having contact:phone provide?
And is it worth the hassle of manually editing all the existing tags to

I don't see any useful difference.  It's a phone number.  I dial it and the
phone on the other end rings.  Why would I expect a business to have
a phone number they never answer?

And you'll have to convince some people on the list that having a "more

I'm far from convinced that contact:website is useful.  It's certainly
semantically wrong.  It's a contact;webpage not a contact:website
(there are maybe a handful of exceptions to that).  Why do you think
the user is more likely to require the webpage giving contact details
rather than the home page of the web site?  I'd expect users are
more likely to want more information on what a POI is than to
want to find out how to contact it.

I find the whole contact: namespace to be ill-conceived.  But fine, if
you want it then use it.  Just please stop suggesting that we
deprecate website=* and phone=*.

I am more thinking about analysis of geographical data of cities or

Even if you view it from the viewpoint of people trying to get a ride, I
would not expect cross-display of the two types of mobility items in the

Depends what question you're asking in the analysis, surely.

If your question is "where can get a ride" then the results won't be wrong.

If your question is "where can get a ride in an enclosed two-track
vehicle" then the results would be wrong in Indonesia. But if you're
asking that in Indonesia, you're probably also aware of the variety of
local modes of transportation and realize that you should ask a more
specific question.

You could make a similar argument for other amenities.
For example, if you're looking for a parking spot, and if your region
some parking lots are private, you need to take that into account when
doing the analysis.
If you are looking for a rapid transit station and you're in a
wheelchair, and in your area not all stations are accessible, you need
to take that into account when doing the search. This might not occur
to someone from an area where all stations are accessible, so should
we have a railway=inaccessible_station rather than wheelchair=no to
prevent incorrect analysis?

To me, this argument goes back to the same question of whether an
amenity=taxi is where you hire a ride, or where you hire a ride in an
enclosed vehicle that can fit 2+ passengers and probably a bit of
luggage.

I think I stand by that quote, but I'm happy to discus it. I'm not

Currently phone has at least 2 uses. A contact number and an incoming
number for a phone box. We should split these out. If we are left with

totally_new_tag_for_phoneboxes is defined as incoming phone number and

definitions that really matter.

New tags?  Why?  We have existing tags that work fine for them.  It's
starting to sound like you're encouraging mass editing.  More
careless wording?

Those working on editors and cartos may feel that contact:phone=* is an
alias of phone=* and insist we can have one or the other but not both.  If
that happens then we have to stick with phone=* because that applies to
all phones whereas contact:phone=* does not.  The same with website=*
and contact:website=*.

I'm not saying that either of those groups will insist it's one or the
other,
merely that it seems possible to me.

why is this “more precise”? 
What about even “more precise” tags, like
contact:phone:business_hours=
contact:phone:reservations=
even better?

IMHO dataconsumers find the tags easiest if they use the same key, if they have 
to search for the keys it will make everyone’s life harder not better.

I agree, not all phone tags convert to contact:phone, same with the
others. I don't think anybody is talking about a mass edit of the
database.

I think we should actively encourage more precise tags like
contact:phone when it's a contact number. We can do that through the
wiki, and defaults in the editors, and gradually deprecating the
generic tags.

During the transition to more quantified data we will see edge cases
like public phone boxes, and others we don't yet know about, and we
should discus new tags for them.

We can't replace phone with contact:phone in all cases, as some wish to do,
because of phone boxes.  We can't replace website with contact:website in
all cases, as some wish to do, because there are a lot of POIs with websites
or URLs that are not contacts.  As long as this is understood, I don't have
a
problem with contact:phone and contact:website.  If, however, people insist
on replacing phone and website completely, then I will not be happy.

Surely that's an argument for new tags as well as contact:website, for
example description:website where a user agent could give users a "Read
more" link. A website tag is generic, which has the obvious benefit of
used widely and easily, but more precise tags like contact:website give
user agents much more flexibility.

And a tag refinement with a sub tag would work if the decision to tag as such 
is advertised : renderers will follow, editor softwares too.
A successful vote may help, opening issues at major editors and renderers once 
settled will certainly.
Also, it's not like taxis are a must have for renderers, there will be no drama 
if a map shows a taxi station inaccurately for a few months.

ojeks getting rendered as cab taxis would work if it would not matter whether 
it’s an ojek or an automobile, if someone looking at the map and going to an 
ojek when expecting a taxi would be equally fine with finding an ojek at her 
arrival.

I would question this. It would work if all data consumers would evaluate the 
subtag, i.e. add support for it and it would mean we would require two tags for 
taxis: amenity=taxi and a tag that says it is automobiles.

I saw one mapper who shared their view on why motorcycle taxi should be a
type of taxi, unfortunately I cannot see the rationale within the
explanation given by the editor. I think it would be helpful of the
proposal can be modofied and RFC be restarted so that hopefully other
editors who held similar views can provide a more easy to understand
explanation on why they think so.

I could be wrong, but I got the impression that even those who were arguing
that ojeks were a variety of taxi expected them to be rendered differently.
If not, why bother sub-tagging them?

 It doesn't just seem that way, that's how it is.  Technically, either
approach to
tagging would work.  One question is which way results in the fewest number
of
mappers (and end users using the query tool) being surprised at the way the
object is tagged/  The other question is which one gives the least
undesirable
results on renderers that support "ordinary" taxis but not the motorcycle
ones.

I think the best we can hope for from all this is that the OP mulls over
all the
arguments, does whatever seems best to him and also documents it in
the wiki.

As a side-issue, I'm not too worried if these discussions don't end up with
a formal proposal but merely inform somebody's decision about "any tag
you like."  What does worry me is that these things then go undocumented
and get used inconsistently.

Re: [Tagging] social_facility:for=family

2020-05-10 Thread klischka
Hello,
I would not get in too detailed definitions, other values here like senior
or mental_health do not go into much details on the wiki. Family are the
groups of people these social facilities are aiming their services at.
Usually this are groups the consists of defferent age groups, juvenile /
children and Grown-ups related either by recognized birth or by marriage or
other relationship.

[Tagging] social_facility:for=family

2020-05-10 Thread klischka
Hello there,

the social_facility:for=* tag is used to describe the group of people that
is primarily served by the social facility. In my opinion there is the value
"family" missing on the Wiki (
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:social_facility:for)

Let me explain why: There are many types of social facilitys that work with
children, juveniles and parents or other personal living contituting the
family. In Germany there is educational domestic advice (erziehungsberatung)
and flexible educational support (ambulante Hilfen zur Erziehung) for
example. 

To make it short I propose this addition to the wiki:
social_facility:for=family 
Social facilities that work with the whole familie, not only children /
juveniles or grown-ups in the family - for example educational domestic
advice (Erziehungsberatung) or flexible educational support (ambulante
Hilfen zur Erziehung).

it would only be “incorrectly” if you judged motorcycle taxis as not being 
taxis. In this case, you should not tag them amenity=taxi taxi=motorcycle 
anyway (because if taxi=motorcycle does not describe a subclass of taxi this is 
the wrong approach anyway).

In this discussion it appeared that some mappers see motorcycle taxis as a kind 
of taxi, like boat taxis and helicopter taxis, and others that see them as 
their own kind of service.
