Hi Dmitry

I did a quick sruvey of some fast food restuarants the local Ikea,  I know
they all have leisure=playground outside and inside, non of these were
mapped.

So why haven't we mapped them as leisure=playground?

Care needs to be taken with this statement, and an understanding of local usage.

Gate is a common part of street names in parts of England which fell under the 
Danelaw.

Gate in these towns and cities is often derived from the Norse word Gatta, 
meaning street. The best known examples of streets called gate exist in York, 
although examples also exist in my home city, Leicester.

Playground equipement is very different for outside playgrounds and
indoor facilities. Your kids will never watch tv at regular
leisure=playground, while amenity=kids_area may have not only tvs not other
expensive equipment. We cannot map equipment, this is insane to maintain,
but we can classify between leisure=playground and kids_area=*.

just because of access=customers.

We have all the tools already without the need for a new tag, and
definitely these shopping centre playgrounds should not be tagged
as kindergarten, the latter is a more institutional amenity.

I know this tag has been at times contentious in the past, due to cultural
and linguistic issues, but some people at least are starting to use
amenity=childcare. According to
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dchildcare, it's for a
place where amenity=kindergarten doesn't seem appropriate, for example
because there's no educational component. I think staffed child care at

Most likely because you have no idea what objects will be mapped with new
tag kids_area=*. Well please show, show me these tags then:

playground=pcroom
playground=tv
playground=activitytable
playground=activitytable
playground=globe
playground=blackboard
playground=mat


Go on. Map them. You can map playground=pencil (not pencils)  I dare you.
But leave kids_area=* tag alone. kids_area=* is not about access, it is
clearly separable from leisure=playground by it's equipement.

If you cannot separate more advanced playgrounds for kids with tvs,

No, because the official name is just Zwettl. But in most cases when you
talk about Bezirk Zwettl (district of Zwettl), you say Bezirk Zwettl, in
order to make it clear that you are not talking about the city of Zwettl.

No. There are plenty of these bogus titles for each city.

never set actually foot compared to the simple version. I have also
tried in the past to convince mappers by sending them messages, to not
use the prefix in order to avoid sprawl, but they have demonstrated
themselves patient and insistent ;-)


I know, that what makes it so frustrating. It's a few dozen people

play room

play room is word by word google translation, it's netter then playground

I don't see a need for a new key here.
The properties can be easily modelled with sub-tagging of playground:

leisure=playground
playground:supervised=yes/no
playground:outdoor=yes/no
playground:indoor=yes/no


I agree in general, but the main issue with tagging like this is that I 
bet most data consumers will just look for leisure=playground and that's 
it.

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - admin_title=*

2014-12-17 Thread Colin Smale
 

In the UK designation= is in wide usage for this. I don't know if it
is typically a UK thing (it wouldn't surprise me) but local governments
sometimes have the right to change their style - for example a civil
parish can choose autonomously to call itself a community council. It
can also choose to call itself a town council although I suspect this
needs cooperation from its parent authority. And a council can become a
city council basically only through a central decision. Some
districts (admin_level=8) have the status of borough. All this
doesn't change the legal powers and responsibilities of the council,
it's all about what they are called. There's a lot of snobism involved
as well... 

I have tried to summarise a tagging scheme for UK local authorities
here: 

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Csmale/ukboundaries 

It is not official in any way, they are only my own notes at present -
based on current usage and my thoughts to keep my work on these
boundaries consistent. 

I expect the system in Germany is a bit less variable, although the
different Länder seem to have very different local government
structures.

Re: [Tagging] Dispute with user over changing wiki page

2014-12-17 Thread Frederik Ramm
Hi,

On 11/08/2014 04:47 PM, Pee Wee wrote:
 We are writing to you for advice on what steps we should or could take

[...]

After some consideration I have today asked user ulamm to refrain from
making any edits to wiki pages unless he has first proposed the edit on
the matching talk page and found broad support.

Any edit activity not conforming to this rule will lead to an account ban.

Data Working Group does not usually get involved in wiki edit wars but
in this case the wiki edit war has a direct connection to disputed edits
going on in our database, and this has been going on for quite some time
and several time-consuming attempts at talking reason into people,
including personal telephone calls, have failed.

This rule will remain in force until 31st January 2015, after which
normal editing may resume, but as soon as there's any complaint I will
extend this rule until 2016.

I will also (try to) revert all of ulamm's disputed edits on the Wiki.

A more detailed message, in German, is here:

[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - amenity=public_bookcase

2014-12-17 Thread Guillaume Pratte
Hello,

I would like to propose a feature for public bookcases, also known as Little 
Free Libraries in the US, and widely popular in Germany:

Here is the talk page for discussion and comments:

Re: [Tagging] Mapping of kids areas

2014-12-17 Thread johnw
usually, the purpose of visiting a playground is to, um, visit the playground. 

The purpose of a play area is (AFIK) a place to deposit the kids while (one of) 
the adults do something else, or as a amenity to a more serious or boring place 
place where the kids can have their attention taken away. 

I know there is a place like this in large facilities that have groups of 
parents who need to park or placate a kid for a while (while adults rest or 
eat), so knowing where the amenity is sounds good. Some of them are supervised 
by the employees, so the parents can shop (like ikea does), though I don’t know 
if that’s considered daycare or babysitting or whatever. 

And whoever suggested the kindergarten tag, I hope they were being sarcastic. 


If there was a new amenity tag, and the data customers ignored it, we wouldn’t 
be losing any kindergartens or playgrounds, so that’s a good thing, right? I 
don’t want playgrounds or kindergartens popping up in what turns out to be a 
corner of the mall filled with bright vinyl cubes and a loop of Pokemon playing 
on a TV.

 I don't see a need for a new key here.
 The properties can be easily modelled with sub-tagging of playground:
 
 leisure=playground
 playground:supervised=yes/no
 playground:outdoor=yes/no
 playground:indoor=yes/no
 
 I agree in general, but the main issue with tagging like this is that I bet 
 most data consumers will just look for leisure=playground and that's it.
