In otherwise covered locations
- Added because of an idea in the discussion.
In the case that a vending machine is inside of an otherwise covered location, like a subway station or a pub, we could add a tag to that location like:
vending_machine=condoms
In that case it would not make sense to give more information as this could lead to problems of assignment of that data as the user might mix them up with the location itself.
- I think we can fix that by putting the vending machine in a separate node and add an: Indoor=yes --Lulu-Ann 17:37, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
