You wouldn't want disused:amenity=place_of_worship to be rendered as a place of worship but you do want disused:building=yes to be rendered. Standard carto doesn't work that way, don't know about any of the others because as soon as I realized standard carto doesn't work that way, I stopped tagging physical objects with a disused: prefix. Currently, the best you can do is use the deprecated disused=yes for physical objects to get the desired behaviour with standard carto. There is no guarantee that other renderers will honour that. There is no guarantee that standard carto will continue to honour that. Cue the endless arguments about standard carto not being the only fruit, don't tag for the renderer, etc. Because this is OSM, and rule one of OSM is that we don't do joined-up thinking. So give up any hope that we'll get an agreement with the most common renderers to have a sensible way of tagging disused buildings so that they render at all (better still would be some sort of slight difference from buildings that aren't disused, but that will probably never happen). Yes, I'm feeling cynical right now. That's because I remember the other times this has come up here. -- Paul
