Of course my thoughts are with the victims, but adding it to the map is not the way, just because it is not something that belongs in a GIS. Besides, all that attention is exactly what those filthy terrorists want! > By all means, do not tell anybody else that the OSM community until a > decision is made by Monday. > > And please everybody, say something else that just noes and tell us what > you think about the Wikipedia link.

We don't add tags to the Bristish Parliament for the Gunpowder Treason page, or to some random grass field for the Waterloo Battle, or such things. If a monument is erected for these attacks, you can map the monument and add the monument's Wikipedia page and Wikidata item to the monument's OSM object. The Wikidata item should link to both the item for the events and all involved locations. Wikipedia and Wikidata tags should point to the item about the object itself, and nothing else. > > There may even be terrorists here for all we know. > > > > If this were to appear in the press like you suggest, I would feel ashamed > > and have the feeling that we are using the events for our own cause, which > > too many people are already doing. > I don't feel like that at all. There is no boasting. > Would you suppress humanitarian tagging about which there is much boasting? Humanitarian tagging is actually helping the victims. We can tell the world that we are doing this because some people will say, "Hey, I can actually help this way instead of changing my profile picture", and that will make the next crisis response even better. > Cheers > > André. > > > > Regards > > Ruben > > > > > > Saturday 14 November 2015 17:14:57, André Pirard: > >> Hi, > >> > >> OpenstreetMap often extends friendliness by humanitarian tagging. > >> In this case of desolation, there is little to tag.
