Yes, but the https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dhotel 
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:tourism=hotel> page says
"Set a node <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Node> or draw as an area 
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Area> along the building outline."

This is how iD interprets the tag - as a building outline.  

So if we collectively decide to change `tourism=*` tags to be property outlines 
(like hospitals and schools), 

I hope:
- somebody opens an issue on iD to let me know to change the wording of the 
preset.
- somebody creates a challenge to cleanup the existing data that is not tagged 
this way.
- somebody fixes the wiki (well somebody should do this anyway as it currently 
says 2 different things)


Thanks, Bryan
