I strongly disagree. "shop=kiosk" is a very strange kind of tag. It says all about design of a shop, but says nothing about the goods that sold in the shop. We (here in Russia) have many different kinds of kiosks. There are kiosks selling only ice-cream, selling only fruits, and selling only flowers. There are press kiosks, that sell newspapers, magazines, popular pocket-books, city maps and some stationary (and sometimes tiny toys). And there are kiosks (they fit best to the shop=kiosk tag) selling snacks, cigarettes, sweets, juices and beer, but they never sell newspapers; and selling wines and vodka in a kiosk is prohibited, so you never find that kind of beverages in a kiosk. So there is no typical assortment of goods sold in kiosks. It would be better to tag kiosks as ordinary shop (shop=convenience, shop=news_agent, shop=greengrocer or even shop=general) with addition of "building=kiosk". Sometimes "man_made=kiosk" is good variant too. We have many greengrocer kiosks that are not buildings. They consist of wooden frame covered with tent and have shelves for fruits and window. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
