The reality is that most mappers don't pay any attention to this group
or the "decisions" we make. It's all well and good to make careful
deliberations about this tag or that one but in the end people will do
what they want. They will continue to tag for the renderer, add tags
that make no sense or aren't orthogonal to the main tag, add
non-existent names to their favorite features (name="Dad's house") and
there's not much we can do about it.
Sixty-two votes is actually a fair showing as these things go. It's
only when you take into account that, according to Andy'e
estimate, "around 1100 individual mappers last edited a jewellery
shop" that it looks weak.
Anyway, now that the proposal has been "voted down" does that mean the
tag description will change in the Wiki?
No. There have been no vote on 'shop=jewelry'!
That will not stop someone from changing its status to 'approved'
despite there being no vote on 'shop=jewelry'.
If the same people were to vote with the same thoughts then over 60%
would reject 'shop=jewelry'!!
I know I would reject it.
Would someone care to demonstrate?

It is not surprising that only people who voted were voting.
