Status: de facto

A community, from the latin cum munus, is here a group of persons, larger than a family, sharing several part of their life among work, meal, dwelling, gouvernance, ownership, faith, prayer

So we map the place where the community members share their life, are gathered : the main common building.

Remember that, in a monastery for example, the place of worship is not the whole building, but the church or the temple that must be mapped independently. So it is a mistake to put the amenity=place_of_worship tag on the whole monastery (even if the monks may pray everywhere) or the =* tag on the sole place_of_worship(in this last case, a operator=* would be more appropriate). There is often confusions.

And. off course, we map actual communities, not historial or closed communities.

Associated tags

:gender=male/female/both
the gender of the members, not necessary in communities with no segregation (international, baptists...).
=*
the name of the community in the given language
=abbey/monastery/convent/priory/friary...
the kind of community: a small community os sisters, a Jesuits community in a school is not an abbey.
=novitiate/study_house/government...
a specific role of this place in the religious order


Intentional communities


Various communities

Maybe there is a room for denomination=sufi communities, according to Talk:Key:denomination#Denominations_in_Islam

Specific communities in network

Communautés de l'Arche (de Lanza del Vasto)
Communautés de l'Arche (de Jean Vanier)
Communauté Emmaüs

Anabaptist communities

Bruderhof Communities
=Bruderhof + religion=christian + denomination=baptist + =Q992197
Amish
=Amish + religion=christian + denomination=anabaptist
Hutterite
=Hutterite + religion=christian + denomination=anabaptist + :wikidata=Q258344
Hutterite communities have been tagged without a capital (upper case first character) hutterite (as shown in the tagInfo table below) and should be changed to Hutterite.


Monasteries, Christian or not

Orthodox monasteries

Mapping monasteries

Monasteries, when complex, can be mapped as Relation:site with

The relation can include :

  • the main buildings where the community lives with building=monastery (barns and other buildings are not to be in the relation),
  • the monastic enclosure (with landuse=religious)....
  • the whole perimeter mapped with Role Perimeter. Note that car parks, for instance, may be parts of the monastery, and included in the perimeter, but the landuse=religious is not convenient there.
  • the church, temple or what so ever, must be mapped on it own with amenity=place of worship, building=church/chapel or building:part=church/chapel, having the usual tags (service time=*...) and can be a member of the relation with Role Place of worship.

Christian religious Orders and communities

Why do we use abbreviations?

The French Prémontrés are call in Belgium (French speaking people) Norbertains (They make famous beer...). The OFM are said Friars minor, Frères mineurs but also, in France, by many, Franciscains, when the capuchins are said Capucins or Frères mineurs capucins, and the Conventuels, Frères mineurs conventuels officialy. And what about the famous Cordeliers or Récolets, Grey Friars?.. And they both call the Frères mineurs, frère mineurs franciscains.

Between the Cistercians and Trapists, who knows the difference?

But I use abbreviations for world wide congregations, not for Nation wide congregations.

The table below would help you to find your way where, as often said: God himself does not knows the number of congregation of women.

The other tags

  • =male/female/both
  • =abbey/monastery/convent/priory/friary
  • =noviciate/study_house/...
  • =*

Name of the congregations in different languages

To add the name of the congregation in your language, you should use subtags:

  • =*
  • =Cistercans
  • =Zisterzienser

In this way =* is reserved for the abbrevation.
