Keep in mind that the whole idea of the "abandoned:" prefix is programs should only find them if they were explicitly designed to do so. For example, if you tag an abandoned gas station as amenity=fuel abandoned=yes, any software that doesn't know about abandoned= will think it's a working gas station, it will appear in searches, apps will tell drivers that there is a gas station nearby, etc. It's better to tag it as abandoned:amenity=fuel so that any existing software will take it as an unknown tag and ignore it. If any software wants to show abandoned gas stations in a different way, eg. as a reference point, it can have an explicit rule for the tag. But I'm not sure about building. An abandoned restaurant is not a restaurant anymore (in the sense that you can't eat there), but an abandoned building is still a building, so maybe building=yes abandoned=yes does fit... Or maybe the map should render abandoned:building. -- Nicolás _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
