[Talk-ca] Future Shop and Target
http://www.thestar.com/business/2015/04/06/future-shop-stores-re-open-under-best-buy-name.html The Future Shop stores that have reopened still have Future Shop signage but Best Buy signage will replace it soon and the employees have Best Buy uniforms. The map in this article is based on OSM, but the overlay is proprietary so don't copy from it. Also does anyone mind if I change all the Targets in Canada to shop=vacant once they all fully close on April 12? If there is a good reason not to then I won't do this, but it seems silly to have a whole bunch of outdated data in OSM. ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
Re: [Talk-ca] Future Shop
The former Future Shops that reopened on April 4 are open again. Oddly enough they still have Future Shop signage though the employees' uniforms say Best Buy and it appears that the Future Shop signage will be replaced with Best Buy signage in the next few months. I think it makes sense to use name=Best Buy and old_name=Future Shop for these. ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
[Talk-ca] Future Shop
Future Shop has closed all 131 stores in Canada and will replace 65 of them with Best Buy stores while closing the remainder. I have created a wiki page https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Future_Shop to keep track of them. Please help change Future Shops to shop=vacant, add any Future Shops (with shop=vacant) that exist but are missing from OSM, change them to Best Buys if they become Best Buys, change them to something else if they get replaced with something else, and update the wiki. Thanks. ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
