a machine selling tickets for parking payment:notes=yes
What does payment:notes=yes mean? That you can buy the parking tickets without having any coins with you? Logictheo 12:21, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
- note = bank note, paper money. Yes. --Lulu-Ann 22:49, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
I like the payment:*=* tags, except that the singular form (i.e. coin instead of coins) seems more consistent with other tagging. I'd also like to use the value "surcharge" instead of just "yes" when there is an additional charge for that particular payment mode (e.g. payment:credit_card=surcharge would be a common tag on some brands of fuel stations in the US).-- AM909 23:51, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Icon for telephone_vouchers vending machines?
Hi, is it possible to use the british top up symbol for the telephone_vouchers vending machines? Actually I don't know where else I should place this request. I talk about this symbol [here] cu AssetBurned 16:25, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
- The question is never "is it possible?". Of course it is. The question is: "Is it legal?". --Lulu-Ann 11:52, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
- hm I guess if someone create a similar logo it would be. AssetBurned 16:43, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
selling point for dog-excrement-bags combined with waste basket for those bags
Any ideas how I can tag the combination of a box with dog excrement bags in it and a basket for the full bags below it? That combination is quite common, at least where I live. Both have amenity as key, so I cannot add both to the same node. --holgermappt 21:40, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
- Our excrement bag dispensers have waste bins, too - Are there any without? Lulu-Ann
- Yes, in Switzerland there are both types: bag dispensers with excrement waste bins (not suitable for other waste) and small, tiny bag dispensers on a pole without any waste bins. Example products: http://www.robidog.ch/de/Produkte/index.php (page in german but pictures are self-explanatory). I would definitely like some sort of excrement_bags:waste_basket:yes (or a simple waste_basket:yes if other trash can be put there too). --Marc 15:39, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
machine where kids can buy sweets
Would you tag these with vending=sweets;toys or only vending=sweets? --Gkai 16:39, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
- I think I'll change the vending machines I added to vending:sweets=yes and vending:toys=yes. --Gkai 18:26, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
bigger vendings?
There are fuel stations "open" 24/7 and car washes where's no personnel and where you can pay only with electronic cash. How should they be tagged? Atm I made one node for the fuel station and one for the vending machine, but I think this nodes should be merged. -- Malenki 22:55, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
proposal for vending_machine=syringes
what about vending machines for syringes? On vending machines like that you can recycle your used syringes and get new sterile syringes for low costs. Kerosin 17:17, 13 October 2010 (BST)
I´ve tagged this one 
793241707 and similar ones like this:
amenity = vending_machine operator = Fixpunkt payment:coins = yes vending:ascorbic_acid = yes vending:condoms = yes vending:syringes = yes

Misspelled tag values
What's with “news_papers” and “SIM-cards?” It's called a newspaper and a SIM card, so the values should be newspapers and SIM_cards. I'm updating the page.
Is there any way to gauge how messed up this is in the database? Do renderers use these values? —Mzajac 17:58, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
- taginfo for vending. People are actually using news_papers somewhat consistently (which is surprising, because mappers usually don't even apply those conventions consistently that actually make sense). This is probably partly due to the fact that there is a JOSM preset for these values. Changing the page won't do much good unless you manage to get that preset changed, too. --Tordanik 18:13, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
- Ugh, thanks. Is there a master list of keys & values somewhere for mass-proofreading before submitting a bug report? —Mzajac 22:42, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
- What we really need IMHO is an agreement "always use singular" for OSM in general. Lulu-Ann
