Seems about as good as anything else. Not really leisure or
amenity because it's not for fun and it's
more of a requirement than a lifestyle choice ("I think I need to
get my boots cleansed one day this week," or
"Let's go for an afternoon of boot cleansing").
One person has commented that it really is footwear cleansing .. to
cover shoes, boots .. etc.
I used 'cleansing' rather than 'cleaning' to try and get away
from the beatification thing.
There's only one location where boot beatification could take
place. But I doubt the Pope would do it.
Perhaps you meant beautification. :)
May be at the same time a tag for boot/shoe beatification
should be created so they are distinguishable in OSM and
mappers then have the choice rather than lumping them all in
together.
Assuming you meant beautification, then I'd agree. If you
document it but nobody uses it then all you've wasted is a
few words in the wiki. If you don't document it then people WILL
abuse your cleansing tag because it's the best fit
they can find (If the boot fits, beatify it).
Yes. I really do want to avoid the misuse of the tag by those who cannot
be bothered to make a more correct tag.
The use of the term 'footwear' is too cumbersome, especially if
translated into other languages. I'd like to keep it simple.
In order to separate the two I like to distinguish them by using shoe
for the beautification/cleaning and boot for the cleansing/purging.
The boot is usually seen as the more rugged of the two and usually taken
as the thing used for bush-walking/tramping etc.
So possibly
man_made=shoe_cleaning
and
man_made=boot_cleansing
or
man_made=boot_purging
Any other ideas as to words to use?
I like that purging is a significantly different form from cleaning -
leading to more visual separation between the two tags.
