changing products by day

how to deal with markets that change products by day?

exemple : if on a same space there is only grocery on wednesday but grocery and variety on saturday? 2 points with specific opening hours? Benoitdd (talk) 08:53, 24 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

I'm still drafting the proposal, so it's still not officially "live" :) Nonetheless, all comments are accepted. As I wrote yesterday:

Some marketplaces host different markets on different days of the week, different seasons, or even daytimes. For example, a grocery market can be held in the morning, and a food market in the evening, on the same stalls. Those situations are out of scope of this proposal, which only defines a single "dominant" type; use variety as a fallback.

As the saying goes, "hard cases make bad law". I consider adding a paragraph or two clarifying terminology, i.e. a "marketplace" (place) can be a venue of different "markets" (events) or even other types of events (festivals, gatherings, ...) Duja (talk) 13:36, 24 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
