Usually the "url" tag is used for an organization's website. For example, many musems, libraries, restaurants, etc. have an official website. That's what the website (or url) tag is for (I think "website" is actually preferred but url is just as good). I'd generally not use a Google+ page for a site, just like I wouldn't use a Facebook page, or a MySpace page, or a Twitter account, unless that was the only site that exists, and is curated by the organization itself. Does Tokorozawa control that Google+ site? Doesn't the city have its own website, like http://www.city.tokorozawa.saitama.jp/ ? In this case, of a prefecture, I'd suggest using the wikipedia tag, and putting in en:Tokorozawa,_Saitama (obviously change the wikipedia link to the relevant one in Japanese). > 2) And also, if that shop has other evaluation sites like the Michelin, > tabelog and more. > How to divide those information? Those generally aren't linked to. If we did, we'd be inundated with links for every site in the world who does reviews for nearly every POI on the map. - Serge _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
