You can't assume that (e.g. "sym=church" actually means a church on the ground. You'll have to do this on a case by case basis. In fact, know it's not church but a hermit. Regarding the rendering, I've discovered there was a amenity=place_of_worship node hidden under the marker of the node I was talking about. That explains it being rendered.

See https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/sym for other examples. Don't just mechanically edit them, because there are likely other (different) issues with each one. Taking a specific example: https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1420261739/history (according to Overpass that's the nearest "sym" to where I am right now) Here there are a couple of obvious issues: * It has an unfeasibly accurate "ele" tag * It has a "sym" tag which makes no sense * The "time" tag isn't really relevant to OSM * It's on a the T-junction of 3 walls. In this case I'd: * Verify the gate location from imagery if possible (likely it's north of south of the wall join) * Remove the "sym" tag * Remove the "time" tag * Remove the decimal points from the "ele" tag (or remove it altogether if it looks unfeasible) * Upload to OSM with a changeset comment that said what you did and why, and what imagery you used. What you would need to do would be different for the next one though. You can't assume that (e.g. "sym=church" actually means a church on the ground. You'll have to do this on a case by case basis. It's surprising to see how these places are being rendered as churches despite of this tag does not appear in the wiki (and no other tag related with worship is in the place). I'd be really surprised if any software (other than Garmin's waypoint display) actually renders these as churches. However, I'm sure that lots of maps renders things that aren't listed in the wiki (different types of shops is an obvious example).

[Tagging] "sym" tag
Hi! I've found some places of worship tagged with the undocumented "sym=church" tag. It appears to be added from some old software, since the"name" tag in the same element is truncated to eight characters. It's surprising to see how these places are being rendered as churches despite of this tag does not appear in the wiki (and no other tag related with worship is in the place). Should I delete the "sym" tag after tagging the building with a more proper tag? Yours, José G.
