OSM Tag History

Complex symbols can not be defined with osmc:symbol=* expressions.

Upload the symbol to this wiki and add a reference to the OSM object.

Usage

Add the filename of symbols. File can be in the OSM wiki or Wikimedia Commons.

Do not add the complete address.

Example for Jacobs pilgrimage ways:

wiki:symbol=Symbol_Jakobsweg.svg

... to reference the following image:

located at File:Symbol_Jakobsweg.svg

If the file is stored in the OSM wiki please add {{Used outside the Wiki|description= <some link> }} to the file description. This will help wiki editors when reviewing and categorising files. It will also add the file to Category:File used outside the wiki and thus help you find files that are uploaded already.

Tools
