Also note that I choose the 3 questions instead of trying to cover the full tag for a few reasons: a) these are likely the most common things one can awnser |
Are you sure? Because for most objects I would have no idea at all, especially from outside. |
In our local area this has window stickers for places that actually support them. For things like community houses I guess this is indeed difficult. For stores we have window stickers here in a few places. Similar to the ones shown in the wiki. |

what about ones that have no stickers? should all be tagged with (note, I am unfamiliar with topic but that seems an obvious problem to me) |
The way I understand the wiki for the key is that no sticker would not result in Also note that
Hm, I am not sure if that is a thing for StreetComplete to solve, as the key itself already faces this issue. I personally would say this is a society issue and not an Openstreetmap issue. As it would be advertising something that is not true. So while I do get that this is indeed causing bad data, I don't think you can do something about that. As even if you ask an employee, they likely would reply with what the sticker implies. While not keeping the promise would only be noticeable if you witness this. At which point you would then likely anyway have to fix the tag outside of streetcomplete, tag it as I think this would be better discussed on the wiki page, as this also affects the key itself and would be nice to be solved there instead of in an implementation of the key. |
I would vouch for using K |
While that data would be useful, the questions Is place XY primarily for LGBTQ+ people? and Is place XY only for LGBTQ+ people? ( But additionally, the issue with a sticker on the shopfront door like this For reasons I do not want to explain here, I do think that recording the information to which milieu = political group / ethnicity / tribe / subculture / ... a business affiliates itself with is actively harmful and dangerous, so I will not support this. The LGBTQ+ milieu is probably the least political and thus least controversial in most places but hence the information value of such a sticker is really low. And in places where it is controversial, see the paragraph above. The issue of the tag design of |
As the contributor of the images of the stickers on the wiki, I'll chime in. There was some usage of Thus, the tag Also, map.qiekub.org seems dormant. It hasn't updated the dataset in months. EDIT TO ADD: Google Maps has tags like this (Identifies as Women-owned, ...Black-owned, LGBTQ+ friendly), but these are self-tagged by establishments. The former are not tags in OSM (at least not widely-used). You could say they're a form of advertising, too. |
And I think this is a big mistake. But then again, Google is driven by business interests and I guess they see it as enabling the business owner to put a virtual sticker on their shop door and don't see the potential social ramifications of this. I wrote that I don't want to get into explaining why this is bad, but just two examples/points:

More general and also applicable here: My vision is that StreetComplete should be designed in way so that any systematic/large scale issues and damage is caused only by users deliberately answering incorrectly. And small mistakes can happen with any editor. And I am not expecting that this quest can be designed in way that avoid this (I was unsure initially, but it seems that it was clearly confirmed that this is too tricky to handle this in SC as a quest). |
General
Affected tag(s) to be modified/added: Key:lgbtq
Question asked: Is place XY LGBTQ+ friendly and/or Is place XY primary for LGBTQ+ people? and/or Is place XY only for LGBTQ+ people?
(It might make sense to combine them and have it as an option to choose from. Also note that the key itself also supports more than this. But I believe these are the most important ones and fit the StreetComplete style.)

Ideas for implementation
Element selection:
This would be relevant mainly for companies and community centers (
amenity=community_centre
).While community centers are simple to select, the companies half is actually a slight issue as it is quite a few things. The tag makes mainly sense in my opinion though for companies specifically doing services like styling (hair stylists, tattoo shops, dressing stores and similar.) as well as health care related buildings. This is due to the fact that here is a major exposure to possible judgment against LGBTQ people compared to other less direct things like a restaurant for example where the focus is on eating instead of choosing clothes or having a medical check of any kind where the service is close to a person.
Noteworthy is https://map.qiekub.org/ also choose to also include other things as well. However, I think these may lead to bloat in this case as there it is a fairly generic tag while on the above-mentioned ones there is a chance that LGBTQ people may get directly judged due to the things they are doing in those places. While yes, the judgment certainly also happens at other places, it is usually a less personal environment there. So I would argue that it makes sense in streetcomplete to only have a quest for the important places.
Metadata needed:
Not aware. This is a key that is per store/place (places, as for example communities)
