Re: [Tagging] Addition of amenity=conference_center to Map Features page

[Joseph Eisenberg]

Sorry, you are correct, the tag is amenity=conference_centre

(The American English term is "Convention Center)

Hi,

I think he misspelled it in the email. The tag page is in British
English [0] and the American English tag "conference_center" has only
been used 44 times.

The word "conference_center" does not appear on the "2.x" branch of iD.
However the documented British English value "conference_centre" does
appear in the presets, which is fine in my opinion.

Yes, there's a big issue with the tag, it isn't in British English, the
official language of OSM.

I'd like to check that iD hasn't got it in its presets.
