Please keep in mind that this is your personal definition - and perhaps the definition of the people in your field. But that's not necessarily the definition of the average English speaker. For example, Wikipedia calls the following museums all art galleries in their first line: * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barber_Institute_of_Fine_Arts * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tate_Modern * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Portrait_Gallery,_London I don't think either fit your definition. You could say Wikipedia is wrong here, but I think it does show that English speakers use the term 'art gallery' in this sense of the word too. Are you British yourself, by the way? > For actual (contemporary) art galleries we should introduce > amenity=art_gallery or something similar. I don't think this would help, for example Birmigham has the 'Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery' which is certainly not an art gallery in your sense of the word. -- Matthijs _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
