That doesn't quite make sense to me. In my opinion, these are not only of value for mappers, but also for users, consumers, lawyers, programmers, or others. The "note" tags can provide detail information for a varying audience. Even though mappers primarily intended this for other mappers, the information can be useful to everyone. E.g. details for a "surface=ground". Or the "source" tag; I think that is even less interesting for most mappers, but more for some users or consumers. I wouldn't make this fixed assignment. I would understand if these were referred to as a kind of meta-tag or an information layer. @Zimtschnecke --Chris2map (talk) 19:06, 16 June 2026 (UTC)
- Hm. I get where you are coming from. Maybe calling this "mapper-only" is too strict then.
- Imho, at least for
note, this is technically still correct. A note is "non-obvious information about an element, the author's intent when creating it, or hints for further improvement". This is for mappers, and while some specialist users may want that information, like lawyers, a non-technical user (a casual map viewer) should not be shown this information. There is a clear separation todescription. Zimtschnecke (talk) 03:49, 17 June 2026 (UTC)- "meta-tag" could work. Or how about "editorial"? Zimtschnecke (talk) 03:56, 17 June 2026 (UTC)
