I know there is a way to tag what the building as to
what it was
initially used for - but i don't think that is the
proper way
(afaik).
So what do you think about building=church +
amenity=museum then?
I think we need some clear, general rules. Current system is
horrible in this matter, but I'd like it to be at least a bit
coherent.
building=museum.
A museum is no more an amenity than a house is.
So why do we use building=church + amenity=place_of_worship?
If we tag the building with its function (and not the shape), we
already know that this is a place of worship.
A 'church' should be building=place_of_worship - the building where
the church congregates - if you want to be accurate about it. Quite a
few churches meet in other buildings built for other purposes.
But not all 'place_of_worship' are buildings.
A church has a particular style, as does a mosque. Both are
'place_of_worship' but the buildings are different.
If museums are not an amenity but building? Are all mappable 'museums'
buildings? I don't know.
-----------------------------
To me the confusion arises out of mapping what is on the ground (e.g.
buildings) compared to the function (e.g. 'place_of_worship').
Perhaps that should be identified on the wiki .. with a similar
prominence as the 'status' property?
---------------------------------------------
man_made=works .. makes no sense as a tag as I don't know what to expect
on the ground nor as a function. ... building=industrial is much better.
