The way you suggested was the correct way to tag a ruined building DOES NOT RENDER. And you never even noticed, you just made a blind assumption and told me how to do things based upon your incorrect assumption.

Explain to me the difference between building=yes + disused:amenity=place_of_worship and building=yes. Both render as buildings. Neither render as a place of worship. One has additional information that is of use to people. If you have your way, I can and WILL decide whether or not something should render as a place of worship by the presence or absence of amenity=place_of_worship and that tagging will be entirely correct and match reality on the ground. You just want me to tag in a way that loses information. I see no merit in that. > > If one renders and not the other that's a rendering bug and you can't > assume that will always be the case for all maps. > Some would regard it as a bug. From comments made by the OSM standard carto people here, I suspect they see it as a feature. -- Paul
