Being able to restrict a namespace to tagging would be a big help. Try insurance (for a shop which sells insurance). I could swear that I created an entry on the proposed shops page for insurance, but a wiki search didn't find it. > Do you have an easier solution than a search box?

It would be good to add to the editors - the law of the internet is that search boxes on web sites are worse than useless. A search for a street address on the main maps page only reinforces this. If we can organize the wiki in to facilitate useful search functions that can be integrated into editors, that would solve most of the issues. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
