Dear all,
As already discussed, "place of mourning" seems to be a less bad label
than "chapel of rest".
Therefore please comment on the following new proposal:
Place of mourning: a room or building where families and friends can
come and view someone who has died, before their funeral
Prop
OK, so I haven't really done all the counting, but my impression is that
amenity=place_of_mourning has quite some fans while most of the others
are at least able to swallow it.
Unless anyone explains me that I got that wrong, I think I'll move the
proposal there then.

Thanks for all the interventions.
To avoid that the discussion becomes inconclusive again, could everybody
rate the following "favourable", "acceptable" or "unfavourable"?
amenity=mourning
amenity=place_of_mourning
amenity=mourning_room
amenity=viewing_arrangements
amenity=deceased_viewing

Dear all,
As there have been no more comments for some time on this proposal, I've
set it to voting. Please have a look and vote:

I have suspended the voting, because there - finally - is a real
discussion.

"In any case, the proposer seems to feel that chapel of rest
should be used only for dedicated buildings and a different
tag should be added to indicate a funeral director's with a
viewing room."
The proposer feels that a subtag should be used for a funeral director's
with a viewing room. But the
"Wake rooms" was at one time my favorite, but then I was told that some
people might associate "wake" with a particular denomination as well.
I'm not a native speaker either, so I can't judge.
Something with "viewing" might be nice as well; "funeral viewing room"

Dear all,
As already mentioned, another ripple effect of my first proposal has
materialised, the need to be able to properly tag chapels of rest as
well.

Hello,
The ripple effect of my proposal for amenity=funeral_hall continues.
Now, it appears that we might need a tag for chapels-of-rest, if we want
to avoid confusion.
Alas, "chapel" will be opposed by some for being religiously connotated.
"Funeral home" or "funeral parlor" will end up bei

I'm completely open to suggestions in this regard. I took the key I've
already seen used by some, but if someone comes up with a better idea,
great.

I'm not familiar with such privately owned cemeteries, so others may be
better placed.
Here are my thoughts from what you write:
If there is a crematorium, as I already wrote, I think it's pointless to
add such a new tag, because a room like that would probably go with any
crematorium anyhow
Not important at all. I just think that if it is ancillary to the
business of selling coffins, transporting corpses, preparing them for
burial, doing paperwork in relation to that etc. (what the French call a
"funérarium"), then it doesn't deserve a tag distinct from the funeral
directors tag (
I could imagine rare cases of a privately run cemetery not linked to any
religion or belief/life stance and where there is such a building. But
typically, they would be public. That being said, all cemeteries I know
personally are run either by a government entity or a religious
denomination; o
If there is a crematorium, I agree that it should take precedence, and I
can't imagine a crematorium without such a room. However, more often

Funeral directors are a business, this is a public facility (generally)
on a cemetery. A mortuary is for storing corpses, that's often
associated to this kind of ceremonial place, but not necessarily.
