[talk-au] Social Media sites

[Mateusz Konieczny]

Both facebook and contact:facebookare specifically for facebook so 
I see little reason to migrate betweenthem.

And when someone (sadly) decidesto use Facebook profile as their website- then website tag seems perfectly fineto use

Whilst I have not checked every facebook link I have corrected a few that were failing where I could confirm the business details. I cant imagine why anyone would place a read only facebook site into OSM but again, if I found one, then I would attempt to contact the owners for a correction.

>> Hi Folks,
>>
>>
>>  
>>
>>
>> I am in the process of cleaning up social media entries in Australia. This involves changing keys such as
>>
>>
>>  
>>
>>
>> facebook= >> https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:facebook
>>
>>
>> instragram=
>>
>>
>> youtube=
>>
>>
>> twitter= >> https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:twitter
>>
>>
>>  
>>
>>
>> to the corresponding preferred contact tag
>>
>>
>>  
>>
>>
>> contact:facebook=
>>
>>
>> contact:instagram=
>>
>>
>> contact:youtube=
>>
>>
>> contact:twitter=
>>
>>
>>  
>>
>>
>> These are the easy ones but there are hundreds of website= entries that also have a facebook (or other social media) url.  I have done all the nodes/relations and am now slowly working through the ways. I have also requested that this gets validated in the ID Editor - >> https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues/8328

>>
>> Is there any chance that someone familiar with the Australian Tagging Guidelines wiki pages could please add a section asking folks to use the appropriate contact keys for all social media. This will help with keeping things up to date in the future. >> https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_Tagging_Guidelines
>>
>>
>>  
>>
>>
>> I am aware of the ongoing issue with phone, email and website in relation to the contact key and wont be touching them.
