Re: shop=vacant. This is a popular alternative tag, but removes the
previous usage from the latest version. I found knowing this helpful
when a new shop replaces it - "There's a new café opening in what used
to be the flower shop"
How is the name tag dealt with if disused: isn't used?
Tony.
If the shops are closed tagging them as such improves the quality of the
database. If they are bought out lock, stock & barrel a mass swap over
edit can be easily executed.

I think this is all premature. The shops still have the branding, they
could be taken over by a new company operating as Thomas Cook. I Think
that nothing should be done until there is greater clarity.

Thanks, I have used once shop=vacant before, now that you mention it.
Will read up on the wiki to see the different intended uses for them.
The old_name is an interesting option.

I'm a fan of shop=vacant, old_name=Thomas Cook myself
You could argue for not:name=Thomas Cook maybe

I changed the three shops in N.I to disused;shop=travel-agent
since I wasn't sure what the best practice was in this case.
Not all of them had the wiki links etc. Any advice on a better
way?
