 Hi all,

 I noticed a user adding some individual grave sites of ordinary people
 and am wondering what the recommended tagging is, if any. Here are some
 things I could find being used (are there others?):

- cemetery=grave [1] taginfo: 726 uses



this seems bad tagging to me, because a grave is not a type of cemetery.




- grave=* [2] taginfo: 17 uses



could be OK, what are the values?




- historic=tomb, tomb=* [3] taginfo: 3087 uses total, of which 1778
are tomb=tombstone (but the wiki notes this is only for important or
well-known persons)



IMHO you could use this for all kind of people, if the tagging makes sense
at all in this way. Not sure if tomb is a word suitable for an ordinary
grave, I have originally introduced this tag for more significant
structures like tumuli in etruscan necropoles or rock-cut tombs or
columbariums or mausoleums or pyramids. tomb=tombstone might also be
strange tagging because a tombstone is not a subtype of a tomb, or is it?
Someone has added this to the tomb page but without further notice on the
mailing lists. If tomb is a suitable term, I think the value should be
something like ordinary_grave or grave and not tombstone which is
really a part of a tomb/grave and not a type of tomb itself.

cheers,
Martin

While experimenting a bit with Wikidata, I added some subject:wikidata tags
to tombstones:

I used buried:wikidata for that. I used it because a grave can be an art
piece as well, and maybe an artist made a statue of some other historical
person or an angel on the grave.

The wiki page for wikidata lists artist:wikidata and architect:wikidata for
these, and defined subject:wikidata for the person something is about, but
I agree that the tag could be misleading. I could also imagine
subject:wikidata to describe the nature of a so-tagged object (i.e. here a
tombstone), while wikidata=* would point to the specific instance. On the
other hand, this will often be already linked in wikidata itself, e.g. with
the instance_of relation.

Thanks for the reply Martin, I'd seen you weighing in on this on the wiki.

I agree--should there be a stronger statement against using this on the

Or maybe send ceyockey a message?



- grave=* [2] taginfo: 17 uses



 could be OK, what are the values?



For the little actual usage, it's mostly grave=yes. There are many (maybe
too many?) additional tagging values on the proposal page I linked to.

 Tomb sounds a little odd in English for a regular grave. But, clearly
people are searching for something to use.


I did some looking via overpass for the three tag schemes I mentioned
above, and even for the first two (cemetery=grave and grave=*) most graves
seem to be well-known figures, with many of them also tagged historic=*.
So, it doesn't help much to get at what to do for the grave of an ordinary
person.

The vast majority of grave tags seem to be in Germany. Has there been any
sort of discussion of this on the DE list?

Brad

There is a little bit more information
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Historical_Objects/Karteneigenschaften,
which belongs to the geschichtskarte-map. I believe in their JOSM preset
there is also a section on graves.

 In addition, there is a type=person relationship [4] which appears to be

This is typically stuff that are not related to any geographic
feature. It's really using OSM just as a free  access database,
bypassing the restrictions of wikipedia. Something that could be
deleted without regret on both database and wiki.
