Proposal

There are an increasing number of radio and television studios, both public service and independent production companies. Some are open to the public for various events and tours. Most cities in the UK and many large towns will have a studio, at least for radio. This tag could apply to a music recording studio too.

Discussion

I would not consider this to be an amenity. Maybe a building? --Hawke 19:17, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

the fact it's a building is irrelevant, that's just a container to house it in. a studio could be in a military bunker (sure someone does, can't remember who), or an underground bank vault (see aphex twin). if it is in a building, i think that should be tagged separately. maybe we need another top-level tag, for less important facilities (a recording studio isn't really on the same importance level as a hospital, or lawyer's office)?

I think amenity is appropriate - it is a place that people visit to do something (e.g. make a recording or programme). It is also a building, so are many amenities. Chillly 22:35, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Maybe we could include newspaper publishers in this proposal. Perhaps amenity=media, type=audio|video|print? --Michael gd 19:31, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

i see what you're getting at, and i do like the idea of an elegant set of tags which that would generally fit with, but it isn't exactly right. a studio is not necessarily media (as in newspapers/tv). it can be recording voice overs for educational/training videos, pre-recorded automated announcements for train stations/airports, and a range of other things.

I think studios are different from newspapers. There are sometimes events at studios and people visit studios to make a recording or programme. Newspapers offices are really just that - offices. Chillly 22:35, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
