See comments on the last proposal: "*It is redundant. I really don't understand why we need another tag for a room or building where families and friends can come and view someone who has died before their funeral. The tag shop=funeral_directors fits perfectly the definition of this new tag proposal (please read it) I quote the definition for funeral_directors: "An event (a place) to honor the deceased for mourners are held here in conjunction with religious services which are held elsewhere". And the tag amenity=funeral_hall can be used instead, in the case that religious ceremonies (any creed) are allowed in the building. Funeral Halls in many countries (as mine [México]) help mourners with all the administrative documentation as Funeral Directors do. If we want to have a tag for every possible difference in all countries we will have a myriad of tags and a complete confussion on which tag to use.*"
*"I note that the English Wikipedia page Funeral_home directs to Funérarium in French, which is the term described in the lede. Similarly, I am also having trouble understanding where the distinction is between the two."* *"my Oxford defines "chapel of rest" as "an undertaker's mortuary, where bodies are kept before a funeral" and does not reflect on the visitation aspect at all"* You need to explain this on the new proposal page. Note that on Tag:shop=funeral_directors <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:shop%3Dfuneral_directors> it says *"an event (sometimes with the deceased's body present) to honor the deceased for mourners are held here in conjunction with religious services which are held elsewhere."* Also Tag:amenity=mortuary <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dmortuary> says "A morgue or funeral home" which might include a place for a viewing. --Jeisenbe <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Jeisenbe>(talk <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User_talk:Jeisenbe>) 20:05, 12 November 2020 (UTC) On Wed, Nov 11, 2020 at 11:08 AM <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear all, > > As already discussed, "place of mourning" seems to be a less bad label > than "chapel of rest". > > Therefore please comment on the following new proposal: > > Place of mourning: a room or building where families and friends can > come and view someone who has died, before their funeral > > Proposal page: > https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Place_of_mourning > Discussion page: > > https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Proposed_features/Place_of_mourning > > Thanks! > > Vollis > > _______________________________________________ > Tagging mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging >
