As I wrote on the wiki, we have separate amenity values for bar, pub and nightclub instead of amenity=drinking_establishment; we have shop values for butcher, baker and grocer instead of a generic shop=food followed by a sub-tag to define the type of food. There is no rule that says, because art galleries are often considered a sort of museum, we must relegate "art gallery" to a sub-type of culture=museum. There is no problem with culture=museum, and since a great many art galleries don't describe themselves as museums it would be worse to make everyone use culture=museum plus some sub-tags. well, not sure for nightclub if it is well placed in culture.

What do the others think? > Well pubs and bars do probably belong in amenity. Nightclubs are comparatively unimportant places where we go to dance and listen to music, which fits my definition of culture! Regards, Tom -- http://tom.acrewoods.net http://twitter.com/tom_chance
