I just checked, and I touched 5 objects in the Nottingham area:

shop=funeral_director to shop=funeral_directors
shop=video to shop=music for HMV
shop=hearing_aid to shop=hearing_aids
shop=chocolatier to shop=confectionery (Thorntons)
shop=car_repair;car_parts to shop=car_repair

Could you indicate how these changes relate to the Nottingham tagging scheme? Were all old tags seen as correct by your scheme?

My objection was never focussed on the specific changes you made in the Nottingham area. I did have serious concerns about changes you made in other places, already explained in my earlier messages. But most importantly, I objected to the fact you were making a series of mechanical edits without discussing it first. Your edits were in my view controversial, changing the shop and name tags as added by mappers on the ground. There is consensus that these sort of changes must always be discussed first.

There is no 'Nottingham tagging scheme' as such. My concern is shop categories shown on OSM Nottingham, and other such sites, can easily be wiped out by merging shop tags together. Your changes altering shop=tyre to shop=car_repair, suggested to me you might go on and remove other tags as well.
