Hi, why have you deleted the node 33428536? Why do you think it is nonsense? It did contain useful information, albeit maybe with undocumented tags. Do you know the proper tags? Then you should have corrected them.

you could take social_facility=shelter https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:social_facility if this fits to the node. In that given form it was tagged clearly discriminatory. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrimination_against_the_homeless

Well, that is a general wiki page, not OSM wiki. So have you notified the author of the node so he can improve his tagging? Also the changeset comment you provided is nonsense in itself. The node was not nonsense, just wrongly tagged in your opinion. Please use proper changeset comments and do not delete people's valid nodes without notice.

Comment from jlcod
I intentionally posted the general wikipedia link here. In my opinion the tags on this node were intentionally discriminatory. I don't see any reason to have this in the database. The changeset comment described what I did, I deleted a node that I found nonsense. But you are right, I could have informed the author of the node or could have left a changeset comment on the author's changeset.

hi there. i am an author of the node in question. this is by no means a social_facility, just a "cozy" place where homeless people often hang out or spend a night. you can smell urine mixed with alcohol and toluene here. i guess other maps do not find it important to mark such areas, i don't think it's a "nonsense" to have them though.

Comment from jlcod
so you seriously chose danger=homeless:shelter because it smells bad?
Nope, then it was correct to delete it. I see no reason to have it here. -
Comment from Jose Riha
nope, i chose this tag because i find this place unsafe for anyone (including me) especially at night. you could get hurt very easily. can you accept a fact that people regularly drunk or drugged can be dangerous to its surrounding?

Comment from jlcod
we should discuss this in some forum or mailing list with more osm members.
- should these things be in the database
- if yes, are these tags suitable
- which tags would be better -

Hi jlcod. If something has no sense for you it doesn't mean it has no sense for everyone. There are thousands of orphaned and untagged nodes in the OSM you could have started with ;)
