I've edited it a bit:
An art museum is an institution which shows artworks so that the public
can see them. The artworks are usually by established artists. Shows are
developed with a concept by curators. Artworks are from the museums

Browsing in the wiki I can see where all the confusion comes from.
Basically the wiki is saying that anything showing art is a gallery,
while the word museum is reserved for science and history.
Obviously that's not the case and should be fixed.

I know a few examples, but I don't think it's as common as art shops
disguising themselves as gallery (see the picture in the wiki for
shop=art, is is calling itself gallery but it clearly isn't)
An example for a gallery with the workd museum in it would be the DAM
Digital Art Museum in Berlin

Note that the wiki currently states: 'Note that art galleries very
often have the word "museum" in the name. Despite this, if they are
primarily displaying art, they should probably take the tag
tourism=gallery'.

Thanks Max - that sounds clear and objective to me, and from an informed
source.
Why don't we just copy this text to the wiki so (with a bit of luck)
newly tagged museums/galleries/shops will follow this pattern. Then we
can discuss the relative merits of a wholesale retagging of the "legacy"

No, that's not the difference.
A museum is an institution which shows art works so that the public can
see them. The art works are usually by established artists. Shows are
curated thematically by curators.
A gallery is showing art to the public. There is the possibility of
purchase, but it is on

Sorry, but a gallery is not a museum
Just because there are fewer 'gallery' than museum doesn't make it
incorrect.
Just because galleries may be incorrectly tagged a 'museum' doesn't make
them incorrect.
