The Uffington White Horse is tagged as man_made=geoglyph, which seems apposite and is documented (if underused). Adding a natural=bare_rock tag to reflect the exposed bedrock underneath (yes, chalk is a rock) would seem acceptable, and would have the definite bonus of getting the shape to

Ah, good spot. The "type=*" tag on a relation is usually used to indicate what sort of relationship is represented, e.g. type=multipolygon. The latter might in fact be a reasonable thing to do here? Best Dan Op di 3 sep. 2019 om 16:06 schreef Michael Booth : > > Tagging it as type=memorial and

Tagging it as type=memorial and memorial=yes doesn't seem very useful to me. Even though the wiki doesn't say you can use historic=memorial on a relation, I would tag it as that. It would be similar to this one nearby [1], would still get rendered and be recognised by data consumers. Or

Thanks Silent Spike. Keep up the good work. Of course, the very process of people tagging a shop type with the value that they think is correct, unprompted by the NSI, is/was the process of gaining consensus. I fear slightly that in our desire to use the 'right' value we lose that inputNot
