Fix duplication of Western Union and add brand:wikidata, brand:wikipedia #2136
Conversation
Is it certain that amenity=bank is always preferred over amenity=money_transfer, for all countries? For example in Africa? |
I think, that Western union is money transfer firm, but I didn't find Quote from Wikipedia
|
Yeah, this is kind of the same discussion that we had in #1943 about WU @matkoniecz However I think there will be places where it only allows money transfer. That's their main buisness, afterall. But maybe this is close enough to a bank? |
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dmoney_transfer is also documented, with Western Union as an example. |
I think that we may need to keep both entries - Wester Union as a bank and as a money transfer. |
But there is match between them. They aren't different organisations. |
Different faces of the same organization can need different modeling though. In the US, Western Union usually is available at a service counter in a different business and doesn't really exist as an independent location/business. |
Tesco operates fuel station and supermarkets. They share the same brand but are otherwise tagged differently. There is no reason to tag Western Union as a bank in places where it is not one (not, I am not 100% sure whatever amenity=money_transfer should be promoted, but at least it is used). |
This is what I did in b3507c7.. We can just include both. |
