Following the Event that came from this past in Berlin I had an Idea for a New Category and as it apparently does not exist, I ask the community to see what they think about it.
On November 9, 1989, the Berlin Wall began to be destroyed by German youth. Now in 2019, Germany is celebrating the 30th anniversary of the fall of this wall, which is now found all over the world. Let's show the world where we can find them
Below are some examples of this around the world
In Belgium
In New-York
In Brasil
In South-Afrika
In South-Korea
In Australia
As you can see, they can be found on all five continents
What do you think about it?The group has already been created too, and enroulement is open

Finally! A comment from the continent:
As said, there are other categories Another remark, it is too restrictive ("too British") if you open your category to other monuments/buildings that have the same usefulness/function ("used as the temporary resting place for a casket or corpse awaiting burial") So I would say Yes (Because at that moment it becomes Worldwide) In France: Depositoire, in Spain: El depositario
Though I'm using the name Lychgates, the items mentioned above are the type of thing I'd like to include, as they serve the same function. Until now I didn't even know any of the names used in various languages for such structures.
Don't see why we shouldn't be including such things as they are simply an interpretation of the lychgate.
Another Continental comment indicates prevalence on the Continent:
Ticks all the boxes, thank you for new submission, good work! They are not rare in central Europe. Often can be found as entrances to old cemeteries.
Here's a Depositoire in Carmes cemetery in Clermont-Ferrand, France, built in 1877:
Here's another Depositoire, this one on this side of the pond. We discovered it in the cemetery of Eglise Notre-Dame du Mont-Carmel in PEI.
This is a bit of the text which we included with it:
In 1928, the Parish of Mont-Carmel asked Cagetain Arsenault if he would construct a small brick chapel above Father Pierre Paul Arsenault's grave. It would be a tribute to his memory, and its purpose would be to provide a safe and sacred space for those who died during the winter months and were awaiting burial in the spring.
Keith
Thank you for considering my point, and agreeing to include it in the categories.
As I said, I'm going to change my vote.This is what was promised and this is what must be delivered

I only want to emphasise the link between what is inside the roundabout and the activities or history of the city inside the ring roads.
According to me it's the only interest of this idea, but so far i just convinced myself....
Ok, I quite agree on a project in this direction
But how could we associate that in a Categorie Name ?
Here 2 example in Belgium
Herstal associate Herstal (B) with 2 old manufactorys of Moto FN & motos Saroléa
In Charleroi (B) Spirou cradle of Spirou editions (comic strip) -

then buckle up and let the proposal run its course.
Vous êtes insultant,
vous êtes débité car votre Catégorie n'est pas passé ????
Mettez-la en sourdine, surtout que vous ne respectez pas la bien séance (de soumettre à la discussion la création d’une catégorie)
Bien à vousAuf Wiedersehen,
If you do not understand, translate yourself

You don't agree because you are blinded by the shiny gold thing that is a new category, and how absolutely cool it would be to run that category....
First off all I am not blinded for absolutely create this catégorie, The proof is that I try to respect the "conveniences"(Not like the last 2 PeerReview). Create a group, submit the idea (which here meaculpa had already been created by *Team Krombaer*) in the forum
Concerning "Redundant", I can agree with YOUR point of view if Redundant means "in excess" but if you mean "superfluous" than No, clarification please
But I also believe (my impression) that you do not understand that for 10 years in Europe "Roundabout Arts" has become an entire Artistic movement just like Abstract, Figuratif, Invander art ...and much more.
You can see all this information in all the links of my previous post, But i am sorry there not in English

I thought we had discussed this exhaustively several times over the years on the forum, and the consensus was that the roundabout arts are 100% redundant with all the existing art categories, and therefore can all be waymarked there.
I can understand this, but not agree with this
In Europe it's a spécial catégorie in Art
In French ==> Art giratoire ==> More info here Fondateur de l'art dit "giratoire" ; Unesco ; Le Parisien
In German ==>Kunst im Kreisverkehr ==> More info here Link 1 ; de.Wiki
In Holland ==> Rotondekunst ==> nl.wiki
In Italy ==> LE ROTATORIE DELL’ARTE
In Spain ==> rotondas y el arte ==> arte urbanoI even found that in America there also gave a name ==> ROUNDABOUT ART ==> Roundabout-Art
Why not create a categorie

Attention please dear Forum readers:
My Idea 'Roundabout Traffics' is now copy and paste by Mr. Michaelfiles. Hope, he has little more agreements ...
Hi,
To point out, actually I did not do it on purpose, when I created the group "Public art sculpture at a roundabout" and put a post on the forum that Alfouine pointed out to me that it existed another groupUm es deutlich zu machen, ich habe es eigentlich nicht absichtlich gemacht, als ich die Gruppe "Public Art Sculpture at a roundabout" kreiert habe und einen Beitrag im Forum gepostet habe, darauf hat mich dan Alfouine hingewiesen dass ein anderer groupe existierte

Ok, Let's continue the discussion on the other forum
Roundabout traffic / KreisverkehreThx

I didn't see that there was already an open discussion
But here I have created a group with the same Theme
Public art sculpture at a roundabout
Sorry *Team Krombaer* for creating the group that will create the category -
Hi everybody,
I just created a new group : Public art sculpture at a roundabout Group
In order to maybe create a new category
This category serves to show and demonstrate that art can embellish roundabouts in the world. More and more roundabouts are being created around the world, and to make them more attractive, public authorities are calling on artists to make them less ugly
What do you think about
Here are some examples in the world : ImageBest Regard

Very good! Did you really think, the restrictions would have a chance in the poll? All Yea votes were from members that are not very active in the community or totally inexperienced.
I do not know, but Yves and I we may have a vision of the game a little different than some
We are not one of those who absolutely want to create WMs in the maximun category, but if that's what the majority wants then I bow-

You can reevaluate the waymark, they do not need to resubmit it, except if they deleted it
Here is, I have Rereview all the WM from Brussel
Send Mail to elyob and the restrictions are removed
-
It's done, the votes are over, and unfortunately I have to bow
75% vote to remove the restrictions, so I will delete them
Now, give me time to warn those who posted WMs and because of restrictions have been refused that they can resubmit them
Only then I delete the restriction -

From what I saw of the investigation: 9 officers and members participated, and the vote was 7-2 to REMOVE RESTRICTIONS. Was this the final total?
Still a little patience the vote ends at 18h00 Central European Time (CET)
I just sent the Mail back to the active members to remind them of the deadline -

You have exactly the same message if you send it only to officers, but i never received it and i want to vote, is it possible to forward this message to me, please

I expected a category officer or the group of officers would review my waymark submission and then approve or deny that waymark based on the category description including restrictions and other criteria. That is the usual process. Instead of reviewing my latest submission, you yourself denied my waymark without review.
Instead of reviewing my submission as a group, you sent mail to all members. I did NOT recieve that mail. I was one of the first waymarkers to join your group.
I think I am done with this category.
Elyob, i didn't know if you understand Ducht
When you go to the link ==> New Foundlanders ...... opgetrokken als gedenkteken aan de Newfoundlandse soldaten die op 19 oktober 1918 als eerste de Leie over staken. =>erected as a memorial to the Newfoundland soldiers who were the first to cross the Leie on 19 October 1918 <== WAR ==> Declined

The proof that it was added (or added back) AFTER Peer Review is in your own words:
“On 3/1/2018 at 7:06 AM, Michaelfiles said:
If I understand correctly you claim that I Mens, So understand that I'm upset
I think it's you who do not understand exactly what's going on
In fact the problem is precisely when people began to publish WM ( a week ago), and that some are seen refused on Brussels and in Brugge they realized that he had a restriction
As proof even Elyop confirms that it existed beforeOn 03/03/2018 at 3:35 AM, elyob said:So far, one-third of the submitted registry-listed sites have been rejected as waymarks because of the restrictions.
Those restrictions were included in the early drafts of the category description. See this thread back on February 1st.
and Please re-read your own comment of 2/2/2018 on my post 1/2/2018 where I present my first draft
You never say it's over the restriction who are well in the draft but we have discussion over language and font
Sorry if I got back enough, but I never would have thought that this restriction could hit so many people and it's just that after we react and that takes me to a dictator
It seems to me that, it's logic as when the category is published, we respect the instructions that have been established and that we respect them.

Posted
Thx for all this information, i will try to delete everything also
And i have found another Catégorie : Gifts from Other Countries
But this is once again, in my opinion, that the organization of the Categories is to be reviewed
Because these certain Category names are too vague or not precise enough
Here, why not keep a name related to the description of the category which seems more explicit to me : "uprisings against the communist"
