<tt>Very interesting conversation!<br>
I often wonder which tag to put on certain POIs and sometimes resort to
guessing, which of course is not good. What if we use this discussion
as a basis for a wiki page for Pinoy POIs, sort of like a dictionary of
amenities, like:<br>
MMDA urinals - see toilets<br>
Toilets - amenity=toilets; fee=yes/no<br>
Newspaper stand - shop=newsagent<br>
Cockfighting arena - sport=cockfighting<br>
Multipurpose hall - building=yes; amenity=public_building<br>
etc.<br>
I would include the generic world wide ones as well, so we can use this
as a guideline for how to tag stuff when in doubt.<br>
<br>
Or is there already such a page?<br>

shop=newsagent is for newspaper stands (I think). for DVD shops, I
think that there is no tag for it. The big G has "Quiapo DVD" (somewhat
prominent when you look at it), but I think that we can't tag it since
it is somewhat illegal. Basketball courts are easy, use
sport=basketball. AFAIK, multipurpose buildings should be building=yes,
amenity=public_building. In some places, I tag cockfighting arenas as
sport=cockfighting, though a good number of people outside the
Philippines do not consider sabong as a sport (and illegal in some
places). Yellow Cab is a "pizza place", most likely to be tagged as
amenity=restaurant.<br>
<br>
Regarding MMDA's urinals, it should be amenity=toilets, fee=no (from
what I know, most, if not all of its urinals are used for free),

<div class="plainMail">(not all are distinctly ph poi's, but
for the sake of discussion, here<br>
are some POI examples i know or don't know):<br>
<br>
-Ukay-ukay / Wagwagan<br>
-Hilot (manghihilot / mangtatawas)<br>
-Daycare - is this classified as a school?<br>
-Multipurpose Hall / Barangay Covered Courts - that cannot be plainly<br>
classified as basketball court.<br>
-Store that only sells LPG tank (gasul)<br>
-Junkshop (buy and sells scrap)<br>
-Store that primarily sells reconditioned and surplus equipments (eg.
HMR)<br>
-Barangay Outpost or Police Outpost (small booth only, not barangay<br>
hall or police station)<br>
-FX Terminal (including a tag for their route destination, eg.<br>
crossing, ayala, megamall)<br>
-Newspaper stand (Tabloid / Broadsheet) - some sari-sari store sell<br>
newspaper, bulgar, taliba, most don't.<br>
-Pay Restrooms (distinction between free/public and pay restroom)<br>
-Auction houses/yard like the ones in subic (or are these just<br>
considered buildings?)<br>
-DIY shop that is specialized in electronic/speaker/radio parts, not a<br>
typical hardware (Raon-type of store, more like a radioshack<br>
equivalent, or Kuryente) - or just generalize this as "hardware shop"?<br>
-free-standing betting stations/ pagcor / lotto outlets and alikes<br>
-DVD DVD (or is this supposed to be secret) ;-)<br>
<br>
-clear and easy guideline which are considered fastfood and<br>
restaurant. as we don't want too many POI icons on the map.<br>
Eg. If you pay first (at the counter before you eat), then it's<br>
FASTFOOD (eg. mcdo, jollibee, greenwich, and those at regular food<br>
courts, including burger machine and good burger).<br>
If you eat-first-then-pay-the-bill, then we generally put it under<br>
RESTAURANT (especially if there's a waiter).<br>
<br>
except for the free-standing semi-permanent fishball/isaw/shawarma<br>
stand/kiosk (and alikes) where you eat first, then pay all the<br>
fishballs you've eaten. Is this classified as fastfood or simply<br>
"snack stand"?<br>
<br>
So is "yellow cab" or goldilocks a restaurant or a fastfood?<br>
<br>
i believe goldilocks and redribbon falls under "bakeshop"? so<br>
therefore, as long as they sell cake, even if they sell fastfood, the<br>
priority tag must be bakeshop. is this ok? that way, we use lesser and<br>
easier to identify POI icons (for use on mobile devices)<br>
