Maybe my post was confusing. I imagined that all public-facing police stations be tagged as: police=station operator=(Bundespolizei/Straż Miejska etc.) opening_hours=* ... Police barracks would then be police=barracks operator=* ... And an administrative building could be police=administration operator=* opening_hours=* ... As amenity=police is currently being used indiscriminately for almost all police-related facilities, we would have to review all police buildings manually anyways to differentiate police stations and other units. In the long run, I would therefore get rid of amenity=police altogether (and thus decongestionate the "amenity"-tag a bit). Best, Jan
