<div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;">But the meaning is often country-specific: « site inscrit/site classé », for instance, are a french classification of monuments which gives specific, increasingly stronger protection for the monument and its surroundings. And what about « Musée de France »?<br><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;">Yes, using such an ID would be a bit cryptic, but given the issues I explained in my first email, I see no better solution. Or would simply FR:site_classé do the thing?<br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;">Regards.<br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;" class="protonmail_signature_block"><div class="protonmail_signature_block-user protonmail_signature_block-empty"><div><br></div></div><div class="protonmail_signature_block-proton">Sent with <a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://protonmail.com/" target="_blank">ProtonMail</a> Secure Email.</div></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;"><br></div></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div class="protonmail_quote">

I could of course create new destination:symbol=* values for such symbols, but many of them are country specific, such as the ID15/ID16 series, and creating undocumented, unilateral values disturbs me; I know that I can act so, according to the "Any tag you like principle", but I'm reluctant to do so, because I feel that undocumented/unilateral values are much less susceptible to be used/rendered, and what would be the point of using values for them to be useless?<br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;">Besides, given the descriptions of these symbols, giving them an unambiguous destination:symbol=* value would likely produce rather long values; should a destination:symbol=* key contain several semicolon-separated such values, I'm afraid to quickly reach the 255 characters limit for an OSM tag value. In such cases, is it acceptable to simply use the ref of the symbol within a country-specific namespace?<br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;">For instance, mapping the symbol visible on the signs of the right-turning road (<a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer nofollow noopener" href="https://www.mapillary.com/app/?pKey=261676592312309">https://www.mapillary.com/app/?pKey=261676592312309</a>) would give the following: destination:symbol=;;;FR:ID16a<br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;">Would this solution be acceptable/advisable? In this case, do I need to fill a Wiki proposal, or is a link to this thread acceptable to promote this possibility on the destination:symbol wiki page?<br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;">Awaiting your answers,<br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;">Regards.<br></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;" class=""><div class=""><div><br></div></div><div class="">Sent with <a rel="noreferrer nofollow noopener" href="https://protonmail.com/" target="_blank">ProtonMail</a> Secure Email.<br></div></div></div><div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14px;"><br></div></blockquote><div dir="auto"><br></div>
