Hi,

I was trying to make this tag rendering on default map:

https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/pull/2673

but it looks there are more fundamental problems with place=square. The wiki definition is too vague, citing just the names in different languages and referring to Wikipedia, and it looks it would be useful to write more about tagging complex squares:

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:place%3Dsquare

My initial proposition is to get away with languages and Wikipedia link and define it this way:

"The place=square is an open space common in urban centers, like cities or towns. Typically this is a named pedestrian area surrounded by buildings, but there are also complex cases with multiple disconnected pedestrian areas, grass, parks, streets junctions with different names (including the streets named after the square or without such name), etc.".
