Hi,

I'm presently looking at the improving/adding features to the mapping of 
Sydney's Botanic Gardens/Domain as I'am spending some time inside the 
State Library do other research, lunch in the park (if sunny). As part 
of that I came across

The ANZAC memorial - Hyde Park, Sydney is tagged as

amenity=public_building
building=yes
name=ANZAC Memorial

I think it should be

historic=monument
tourism=attraction
building=yes
name=ANZAC Memorial

--------------------
For reference/comparision the Australian War Memorial, Canberra is 
tagged (neglecting the name etc.)

on the building;

historic=memorial
tourism=attraction
building=yes

and on a node(yes a separate node inside the building);

historic=memorial
tourism=museum

I think here the 'memorial' should be changed to 'monument' to reflect 
the size at least (as per the wiki, memorials being smaller, say the 
size of a statue, monuments being larger, say the size of a small 
building). And the node could be removed? (Or is there a reason for a 
separate node?) Thus tagging the building as

historic=monument
tourism=museum
building=yes


Thoughs?
