Hi, I find it odd that you state source:website but don't proved the website in the website tag. Why not?

PS: I see the website of the business as the virtual front and consider the information public as any sign etc on the actual shop. So Yes I do this also all the time. (Individual POIs, not mass import)

This particular change caused me to reconsider how appropriate it is
as it was all sourced from the website so I used source=website which,
when viewed superficially, appears to contradict guidelines for where
to source map data.

Andrew: It is nice to know that this is generally considered OK for
individual facts.

Adrian: As part of manually adding these facts I check that the
address I'm adding is for this physical location, ie at least the
street adjoins the business being tagged.

Might be issues where contact address (e.g. head office) being copied is different to physical location on map.

This has come up a few times on the mailing lists, and the advise
usually
given is it's okay to source a few facts here and there like the
address or
contact number, but just don't start taking a whole database of venues
and
copy that database.

Is it acceptable to copy a street address (and other contact details)
from a business's webpage?

For example in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/72452124 (what
changed is easier to see at
https://osmlab.github.io/osm-deep-history/#/way/705884944 ) I added
the
street address as listed on their website.

If this isn't acceptable, what is an acceptable way of getting an
address if it is not obvious during a site survey?

Regards,
Kim
