@pr3d @organicmaps The contact: prefix makes a lot of sense to me, but unless one of the tagging schemes officially becomes the correct one, the second best thing for data consumers is to use the more popular one.
@pr3d I'm pretty sure both apps use both prefixed and non-prefixed tags (coded the support into maps.me/omaps myself).
I prefer non-prefixed, but that's a matter of taste, really. To me, pro-contact arguments work well on social networks, but `phone` and `website` tags are established and good enough.
Note that regardless of the setting, social network tags use `contact:*` prefixes anyway. I think I consulted taginfo when doing that.
