I'm mapping in Thailand where the majority of temples sit inside a compound, typically enclosed by walls, inside of which are the main temple and any number of buildings. Monks' residences, guest facilities, food shops, all are enclosed by the walls. The enclosures are fairly obvious in the Bing aerial imaging and mappers frequently enclose the whole thing and then tag it. We seldom try to sketch the temple outline because the imagery here is not always clear enough. And there are so many of them, I often simply place a node on the main building and tag that.
Based on my reading of the discussion on this list about landuse=religious, those enclosed areas fit that intended use perfectly. I have not started tagging anything as yet because I'm not sure it will make it through the rigorous discussions that ensued concerning its use.
