Validate social media tags #121

This could also apply to lots of social media accounts facebook= could all be changed to contact:'socialmediaaccounttype'= |
Related to openstreetmap/iD#3915 and openstreetmap/iD#7566. |
The two issues above are more related to phone, email and website - I think folks adding their social media accounts is a different issue. For instance what tagging would you use to add all four social media accounts PLUS a website? |
No argument there. I was just trying to provide context for the part about changing |
If this goes ahead, I request that the solution is to add the contact tag without removing the website tag. |
There are two parts to this issue. One is converting The second part, key renaming from The website=* tag should NOT be removed just because it's a social media site. There is also the question of how it gets represented. If the website is http://twitter.com/realPizzaShop, should contact:twitter have that whole URL or @realPizzaShop? I don't think iD should make that decision, and website=http://twitter.com/realPizzaShop is still correct tagging by itself. |
What about cases where main website of restaurant is a facebook page? In such sad cases |
The question for me is 'how do we know if this is the main website' for the business? I suspect many folks just add the facebook site as website as that is where they have seen mention of the business, without looking any further. I also think the insistence to tag to website as the primary web reference is close to tagging for a renderer. But in usual OSM fashion I will go with the flow and duplicate the facebook tag to website if its the only URL mentioned. |
On the wiki talk page, it's now been pointed out that: Note also that in the OSM spirit, feel free to not touch the website tag and let someone else worry about it :-) |
I'm hesitating a bit, because https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:facebook is not yet marked as a deprecated tag, and there is still quite significant number of objects tagged with it. 🤔 |

The consensus seems to be that any listings using website=xxx.facebook,xxx should instead use contact:facebook. Likewise facebook= should also be changed to contact:facebook=
Perhaps this could be added to the validation
