point is not that "url" is used but that it could be
wanted and that this usage would prevent it.
To prevent the "first jumping on it owns it" practice,
the good move would be to consider that anything:url is
officially an URL.
"being officially" meaning principally that listings
make it a clickable link.
Even though any URL can be recognized inside any text
and made clickable.
But I've had problems suggesting to make multiple tags
containing URLs clickable.
The answer was: "the URL tag exists already" ;-)
For whatever it's worth (probably not much), when I
imported the New York City DEP recreation lands data, most
of the facilities had multiple URL's - the main URL for
the facility, the URL for the facility's official map, the
URL for the site where permits can be obtained (if permits
are required)...
At the time, JOSM warned me about 'url' and proffered
'website' in its place, so I went with that in place of
'url'. For the secondary sites (map, permit service, ...)
I used 'website:map', 'website:permit', etc. The tools
appear to recognize it - at least when I call up a place
like https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/6304825,
the URL's render appropriately as links. I may have got it
all wrong, but nobody corrected me on talk-us or imports
at the time.
In strict parlance, an URL refers to any resource and its name is
self-describing its type (with a scheme), e.g. mailto:me@there.
(if you click on mailto: the software may open a new e-mail message,
and on tel: it may dial a number, there are no coffee: nor tea:)
So, it's a matter of knowing if we want to reopen this discussion
for a new key for each scheme or do it all with url="">
A web site is a collection of web pages.
In any case, it is map:website, the website that is an attribute of
the map and not website:map which is the map of the website.
Just like the door:key is the key of the door and not the door of
the key.
Most general concept comes first and its parts or attributes come
last.
All the best,
