A thesaurus didn't throw up anything compelling. Instead I became convinced that the best subtag is actually "merchant". shop=merchant merchant = timber|building-supplies|agricultural|garden|... I realise that "merchant" is a less familiar word in some parts of the world, but the values should make it obvious. I suppose that "distributer" might be an alternative but I don't think it is the same. Craig's shop=industrial_supplies also seems to be to be valueable and to capture something a bit different, so I suggest that also be introduced. I guess there is some risk of overlap, but I don't see why would be a problem. shop=industrial_supplies industrial_supplies = chemical|construction|metal|... Reactions? Should I (or someone else) put something on the wiki? At least if we have reached a consensus... ael PS. Yes I suppose one could argue that every shop is a merchant, and it should be the main tag with shop as a subtag, but we have to live with the status quo. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
