But that's not interesting what is needed is how to help people tag, and how to share tagging experiences between users. The most used ones are the least interesting. >>> 2. wiki-search >> >> Due to the wiki being used for everything this is very ineffective at >> times, do a search for lawyer... > > is an exception, there are not many exceptions though, and as soon as > a key:layer-page pops up, (e.g. set up by those who write continuously > about this lack in this list), it will be solved. Care to expand on what you mean? The wiki search sucks when you want to find out if someone else has documented a tag that describes what you want to do. But this is also because people have too little time (or will) to consolidate pages into one, and the people that do this come off like megalomaniacs. There is a need for personal documentation of tags, easy way to say what this tag means for you. IMO We are severely limited by English, what is easy to describe in Swedish for me, might be hard for me to do in German, Spanish or English. -- /emj _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
