Hello Friedrich, in Czech Republic they have a similar problem: They have so called conscription numbers, which are unique in the whole city and additionally the normal housenumbers. They use the key addr:streetnumber (675,742× used) for the number unique within the street, addr:conscriptionnumber

OK, I've just merged both pages into Key:min_age [1] and Key:max_age [2], added a note, describing why and translated both pages into German. So for me the discussion is finished. If anyone doesn't like, that it's now min_age instead of minage: Please discuss it here or on the respective

[Tagging] min_age vs. minage

2014-07-19 Thread Florian Schäfer
Hello, I've just stumbled upon the two keys min_age=* and minage=*. Both have a WIki-page and seem to mean a similar thing: * min_age: It is used when the visitors of an amenity need to have a minimum age in years. * minage: It tells you how old you have to be to enter a shop, venue, building or

Yes, I agree. That recommendation was introduced yesterday by Pieren [1]. I strongly oppose that. The wiki is not for documenting Tagging-trends, but for documenting best practices. And I would say, that tagging noexit=yes on ways is not a best practice. In my opinion an acceptable comment in
