Missing Categories

[Già]

Hi, I remember there was a huge list of categories when Google Map Maker was online.

I read that now it is integrated in Maps, but the list is very poor.

There was specific categories like "War Memorial", but now I can't find neither "Monument" category, so... I have to select "Museum" when I create the monument?

Hi @Già

You can add this place in using Historical landmark or Historical Place Museum category.

Thanks, at least is something

There's quite a bit of mystery surrounding map edits since the untimely demise of map maker. Someone posted a list of categories recently, but I don't know if it's official. Strikes me as odd that google rolled map editing into local guides, offers a mapping badge and then provides so little editing direction. To my way of thinking you shouldn't have to play detective to figure out how to properly ID a statue.

I'm always posting this category list, that comes from an official Knowledge Base, but is mainly targeted for Google MyBusiness, so maybe could be not useful in this case 😉
