How to tag "admotion bikes"?

See https://twitter.com/rad_ts/status/1300713087981551616. The idea seems to be to have a bike that reminds the city to improve the infrastructure, so that ghost_bikes are not needed anymore. What would be a good tagging for this? --Tordans (talk) 20:33, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

advertising=sculpture + message=opinion + description=* + inscription=* + operator=* + start_date=2020-09-01 would be part of my solution :) --Supaplex030 (talk) 20:53, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

Should this use subject=* instead of name=*?

A few minutes ago, I found a subject=* key. Currently, this page recommends using name=* on ghost bikes to name the memorialized person. Should we continue to use name=*, or slowly begin using subject=* instead (or use them both in combination, somehow?) The memorial:subject=* tag exists, but is a duplicate of subject=*. There is a relevant proposal. UsefulRabbit (talk) 05:42, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

Are these memorials having names (which are also name the memorialized person) or are they nameless/name very rarely matches memorialized person? Mateusz Konieczny (talk) 09:07, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
subject=* is the semantically correct tag to use here. The bicycle in itself doesn't have a name, except maybe "ghost bike in remembrence of <xyz>". MapComplete.org/ghostbikes writes into the 'subject' tag but still renders 'name' as it is widely used (292 ghost bikes with name=* vs a mere 35 with subject=*. I've checked a few of the once with a subject, and all of those which I haphazardly checked were made by MapComplete. Maybe we should do a mechanical edit? --Pietervdvn (talk) 16:19, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
