Nodes are a problem.
Contiguous buildings are solvable, but it requires turning buildings into

Thanks for all comments! For now I created

to document complexity discovered during this discussion.
This way we can avoid remaking entire discussion next time and problem is at
least documented.

Sorry, Martin, but what do you do, if you have a big multi-storey building
and all you have is the door bell on the street level? Not map it?
The Tuebingen example illustrates the problem. The relation has two nodes
in a multipolygon as outer? That is not kosher either.

This is the case with the University of Edinburgh. Well, it
Padua, Italy, where I live, has a big university spread all over the place.
This includes smaller sections being in apartments in buildings that are
mainly used residentially.
With other words "pieces" of the University come in all sizes and shapes,
from what would be a typical campus to single apa

One problem with multipolygon relation is that by definition you can't

+1 for the common multipolygon relation, not type=site.

You also have the problem of different Schools sharing the same building.
With the Uni I'm familiar with, in one case you have the Clinical Sciences
building 1, which holds 3 lecture theatres, plus the School of Nursing &
the School of Pharmacy.
It's currently mapped as "G16 - Clinical Science 1"

I don’t see how site relations would solve the different levels of structure in
different countries/un
Apart from technicalities, there is another problem. Universities in
different countries are subdivide in dìfferent ways: faculties,
departments, institutes, colleges. Except for campus-type universities they
are often distributed over an entire city.
I have not looked into this in detail, but this
Each country (and maybe university) have different subdivision, and
sometimes even inside one university there are multiple different
subdivision co-existing : for example in Belgium i know at least a few
universities that use two separate division at the same time :

But in British English it more normally refers to a division of a

Some chairs of faculties have separate locations, too.

Universities may have faculties, that often deserved to be mapped separately.
For example university may take a large area, possibly disjointed area across
the city
but Faculty of dentistry, Faculty of forestry, Faculty of mathematics etc may be
possible to be mapped as an area/node.
