shop=charity is not what you want! Please read the wiki?
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:shop%3Dcharity

It says "selling a mixture of second hand goods, donated by the public. 
eg books, clothing, toys, furniture. May also sell some new products, eg 
confectionery, crafts."

+1 for the intention of the tag.

-------------------------------------
Trivial nit picking - this is not a rejection. Nor a compliant. Unlike 
some I would not reject a proposal due to the wording!

"/Definition: A way to tag places where prospective parents can adopt 
children"//
/
This should be the definition of what you want to tag...

Better might be: "Definition: A place where prospective parent/s may 
adopt a child or children"

And
"/Applies to///

/The proposed tag //office 
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:office>=adoption_agency 
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:office%3Dadoption_agency&action=edit&redlink=1>//would 
be used on either: /

//

  * /nodes (in which case the node should be placed near the middle of
    the building in which the adoption agency is contained)
    /

This assumes that the adoption agency occupies the whole thing. If the 
adoption agency only occupies a section of the building?

Better might be: nodes (the node should be placed in the centre of the 
area occupied by the adoption agency)

============================================== children vs adult
I think an 'adult' cannot be 'adopted' - they are legally independent - 
not subject to guardianship by parenting.  Again this is just a note - 
for information and consideration by those concerned.
