Will NSI handle religion and religious denomination standardization preset? #6874

Open LaoshuBaby opened 2 years ago

LaoshuBaby commented 2 years ago

Background

In OSMTW's Telegram group Supaplex and @littlebtc raise a proposal that add Taiwan local denomination to NSI, like "Tzu Chi(Q717899)", "Fo Guang Shan(Q548694)" or "True Jesus Church(Q1859)"

How to do

There are mainly four categories at present, brand/flag/operator/transit, and for example, operators/amenity/place_of_worship means a group of chain churches that are all operated by "XX Church"...

If it is religion, the path in NSI is may like (religion/denomination)/amenity/place_of_worship, and this will need to create a new catagory.

Should we introduce those kind of data to NSI? I need some suggestion from other maintainer. 😥
