Good point, thanks! For reference, here are the links: Poland: http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?way=25439265#map=18/50.07478/19.95037 β cemetery=sector, name=xx France: http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?way=13859706#map=18/48.86089/2.39262 β name="Division xx" Italy: http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?way=10045286#map=19/44.43158/8.94833 β cemetery=sector, name="Campo xx", ref=xx Looks like 1) people really prefer to use "name" instead of or together with "ref"βand I can well understand them, since "ref" is not displayed. 2) cemetery=sector is used in some places but not everywhere. While landuse=cemetery is used >200k times, cemetery=sector is only used 2.5k times. Could someone explain to me how one can detect "mass retagging" please? As for proposing something new, I'll first get in touch with the author of the current proposal and see what he's up to. Will post here once I've heard from him. Cheers, Kotya
