sounds like there are several different kinds of shops being discussed
- old old “markets”, from before there were super markets or convenience shops.
- import/foreign foods shops catering to a local minority population or special
cultural interest
- “markets” in developing countries.

You know, some people have advocated for a tag or, more properly, a set of
tags that can enumerate the items sold by a given shop. The tag set uses
the key "sells:*=yes/no. So if a given shop sells Korean food, one could
tag it as shop=food (or shop=convenience or grocery, or general) and
sells:kor

Why not map traffic signs the way enforcement devices are currently mapped
in relations? That's more foolproof than relying on nodes having nonextant
direction, especially when most traffic signs aren't even members of ways.

How about the existing tagging scheme for traffic signs on nodes,

To sum it up:

You can tag the doggy bins like so:

Why is shop=convenience not a proper tag for "the only retail building

introduce a subtype with convenience=*.

Bkill, you added fire_hydrant:opening to wiki page [0], but you should have
discussed it here and/or in discussion page before.
We did many efforts to widely discuss fire hydrant extensions [1] and finally
approve them: you should at least discuss your proposal with people who spent
so much time
for this reason the solution of tag the traffic signs ON the way it's the
best way to do it. Traffic signs are relative to their ways (because if the
way does not exist the existance of traffic sign is non-sense). Ways have
direction, also their nodes can have this reference.
Relations are complex

Prefabrication often ease the move of such buildings but it's not mandatory.

Hi all,
Game and toy libraries don't fit in any feature type.
They can be but are not necessarily:

- child care facilities
- social faciilties
- toy stores

- probably other things
So I think they should have their own feature type and tag.

I am not saying these cases are impossible, only that they have to be
accommodated, preferably as uniformly as possible. It is not intended as
criticism, but as a critical test of fitness for purpose. If the tagging
scheme can't handle these real-world situations, it's not ready for

Do note that fire hydrant plates depict opening direction, so if we
would need to store direction to close, a mapper would yet again need
to do mental work, that is not error prone and confusing.
