Separate Cincinnati chili from chili con carne?

[oxguy3]

Currently, Skyline Chili (skylinechili-96af40) and Gold Star Chili (goldstarchili-4d2ff4) both include the tag cuisine=chili. However, according to OSM Wiki, this tag is supposed to be used for chili con carne. Skyline and Gold Star are Cincinnati chili restaurants, not chili con carne restaurants, so it seems like this tag is incorrect. (If you're not familiar, Cincinnati chili is a spiced sauce of Greek origin and has very little in common with chili con carne besides the name). My opinion is that these restaurants should be changed to a new tag: cuisine=cincinnati_chili.

However, I checked overpass-turbo for all cuisine=chili entities, and most of them are Cincinnati chili restaurants. Out of 186 results, maybe 1 or 2 dozen of them serve chili con carne; the rest are Cincinnati chili restaurants. So I wonder if the tagging scheme needs to be reconsidered. My opinion is that we should start using cuisine=chili_con_carne and cuisine=cincinnati_chili, and cuisine=chili should be considered a deprecated tag.

I'm fairly new to OSM, so please let me know if there's somewhere else I should be starting this discussion or some other way I ought to go about this. Thanks!

Both cuisine=chili_con_carne and cuisine=cincinnati_chili would be completely new key-value pairs according to taginfo, so the best place to start this discussion is probably https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Key:cuisine.

Consider instead starting a discussion on the forum for more visibility.
