New quest: Add Facebook pages for shops and amenities like bars or banks

Open DnaVenom88 opened this issue 7 months ago • 4 comments

Affected tag to be modified/added: contact:facebook Question asked: Does this shop have a Facebook page?

Most of the shops don't have a website, but it's way easier that they have a Facebook page: almost all the shops in my city and nearby cities have a FB page.

The quest has been rejected by the developer of Street Complete but I think it would be an extra for SCEE. It would avoid manually add the tag contact:facebook by making it a quicker option

but it is harder to add during survey than while on a proper PC

it is one of rare cases where Maproulette actually fits

Is there a reason why existing SCEE website Quest doesn't suffice then?

I.e. you can use it to tag website=https://www.facebook.com/whatever (in fact, some 43k+ uses of website tag are exactly such links to facebook)

Separate contact:facebook quest would mainly be useful only when a shop has both facebook and a non-facebook webpage, and you wished to specify both, so separate quest for Facebook (or Instagram which seems more popular around here, for example) would be convenient.

And any data consumer which supports contact:facebook would more than likely support website leading to facebook too...
