[Tagging] Difference between graffiti and mural

[António Madeira]

I'm mainly focusing on one of the "rules" of OpenStreetMap:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Good_practice#Don't_map_temporary_events_and_temporary_features

A scratching or other kind of paintings on walls or public equipments 
tend to be temporary. A notable graffiti tends to:
- originate from a recognizable artist
- have considerable proportions
- be legally authorized by local authorities
- (thus) last longer and are more easily verifiable

Of course, that doesn't mean that "minor" graffiti can not and should 
not be mapped. The question is: is it relevant?

Regards,
António.
