My hunch about few mapper was due to the spelling looking wrong to me, and the many variations. Thanks for checking. >> I also think that e-cigarette would be better than e_cigarette, as the >> - does not represent a space, and "e-cigarette" is a regular English >> word, used for instance in newspapers. > > No doubt about the spelling but still prefer a tag without abbreviation > and advertising background. So call it by proper name. In my case > electronic_cigarette=yes. I always spelled it "ecigarette" in my mind, but what do I know ? Googling and duckducking show all 3 variations to be fairly common. But they're all kind of slang/marketing terms (like "e-cig"), so I think that electronic_cigarette is a better fit for osm. FWIW, that's what wikipedia uses too. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
