I recently mapped a couple of Police Memorial Trust memorials, for example:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/1478159796
with Tag:historic=memorial.
I included the text on each memorial, tagged "text". Would that be
better tagged "inscription", or with some other tag?
I've used "commemoration" on a couple of memorial benches in my
village, e.g. http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/1419167468, but
now you mention it, "inscription" sounds more generic, as there might
be inscribed public objects that aren't commemorative.
I've certainly used "inscription" when mapping Swedish rune stones ...
so it certainly has flexibility!
