I can confirm that (in the USA, widely) we have automobile service stations (colloquially called "gas stations" or infrequently "fuel stations") which sometimes have a convenience store attached, and that yes, they certainly do sell minor automobile supplies like fuses, oil, radiator-stop-leak, replacement turn-signal bulbs, et cetera. And for convenience stores which are not "attached to" a "gas station" (service station, fuel station, petrol station...), I have certainly seem similar minor automobile supplies (fuses, oil, bulbs...) sold there, too. Though, I'd say "less often than at a convenience store 'attached to' a service station." See, this is why we have multiple tags that can associate with a single node (or polygon). If it sells "light automobile supplies" (fuses, oil, bulbs...) it should be tagged with that (or something like it), along with fuel, sandwiches, soda, candy, tobacco, perhaps beer and wine, whatever. Precision for shop=gun, shop=firearms remains elusive, though I think we all agree we want to be both encompassing and precise, which isn't always easy. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
