I need some help @openstreetmap.

UPDATE: Thanks for all the help!

What do I do, if a business has closed down, and then a new business has taken over the same place?

Do I mark the previous business as “does not exist” and add the new one, or do I edit the existing one?

    @danish @openstreetmap Edit the existing one to preserve object history. Good practice ist to change shop=something to disused:shop=something. This way the object can be re-tagged again as shop=somethingnew if it re-opens. If it just re-opens just skip the disused step.
