Sorry, I was wrong with the specific example dog. Though I have to say, that cat is unclear weather your are talking about the species house cat or the genus cat, the same with horses as the Mongolian horse and the domestic wild horse are different species. The dictionary should not mention a single species but show the differences. Still the main point remains as there are already established tags why not using them and if there is a problem with latin names you can still use language code as subkey (e.g. species:ru=*) Please, do not get me wrong. We had a similar discussion with plants (e.g. trees) two years ago and I just wanted to get it right from the beginning, this time. fly ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - Voting - Animal_breeding
Voting is pointless and gives tags an air or importance they do not deserve - there are *no* approved tags, just tags people use. Discussing and documenting tags is good, but voting is just daft, especially when the quorum is just 15 out of about 15000 regular mappers. If you like the tag and find it useful, use it.

Do you think I should create a definitive wiki page assuming the proposal is approved, although we have only 11 votes in total? I think you can treat it as approved. The requirement is has found enough support - the 8 unanimous votes or 15 votes with majority approval are explicitly only there as a rough example, not a strict rule themselves. In my opinion, relatively decent participation (11 votes) with only one opponent, whose argument has even been taken into account and who is unresponsive now, can clearly be considered enough support. It doesn't make any sense to insist that you should find 4 more persons who oppose your proposal before it can be considered approved... if you end voting now it means that your proposal is rejected for absence of interest (must have at least 15 votes). The rules are not as strict as you suggest here. Tobias ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - Voting - Animal_breeding
Martin and Chris opinions are opposite but both true. I thought voting could be a chance to put attention on the proposal, but it seems that few people care about it. On the other hand that proposal doesn't conflict with other tags, so I could simply create a wiki page to document it and bypass voting as Chris suggests. So what should I do, extend voting or not?

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - Voting - Animal_breeding
What your are talking about are genus not species see: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:genus http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:species You can specify a single species or many species together. Species is not intended to be in scientific language but in common language, for simplicity. The tag is consistent with animal_shelter and animal_boarding where in species you could specify dog or mammal or little_mammal or pet or sea_bird or sea_turtle: so a scientific classification is not appropriate here, and would discourage the common mapper. Landuse=grass seems to be to general better use meadow. Yes, landuse=grass is general for grass area for example in a dog or cat breeding. If the grass area is used to feed animals, landuse=meadow or better landuse=farmland should be used, but probably it would be outside the breeding facility itself. However, ok, I will put a link to landuse=meadow or landuse=farmland too. Thank you for your comments.
