While Tagging Pachinko parlors in Japan, I came across a wiki documentation
conflict.
2 different tags say that they are the proper ones to use when tagging pachinko
parlors:
Amenity=gambling wiki page says:
> A place for gambling, not being a bookmaker, lottery shop, casino, or adult
> gaming centre. Games that are covered by this definition include bingo and
> pachinko.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dgambling
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity=gambling>
Amenity=adult_gaming_centre says:
> This tag is used for venues with gambling machines, such as slot machines.
> Examples: • Pachinko Parlors (Japan)
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dadult_gaming_centre
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:leisure=adult_gaming_centre>
Can someone who knows better clean up this mess?
IMO, a bingo hall and Pachinko parlor are totally different. “Adult Gaming
Center” seems to be the correct tag.
A Pachinko machine is basically a slot machine. But Amenity=gambling might be
the de-facto in-use tag already. I don’t know.
Also, how do you specify which games are offered? gambling=pachinko is in the
wiki, but what about adult_gaming_centre? is gambling=* the default way to
define what games are offered at such facilities? that seems to be vague or
missing.
gambling=pachinko has 560 uses (all in Japan)

there are several times more pachinko parlors in Japan, but many have been
mapped with this tag.
