Community collaboration to improve business categories

There is difficulty in searching the appropriate categories for some businesses for several reasons:

 

  • The differences of terms used for businesses in different countries that have the same language
  • Some categories have specific subcategories that do not fit all spectra
  • There are categories not found


I therefore believe that it is important to collaborate in the classification systems to establish more common terms and to expand the necessary categories.

That's one of the reason why we have idea exchange, @JoseLuisRG , so we can also suggest categories to be added, or modified for specific languages

Thanks for your answer @ErmesT, yes is a good alternative, but for make standar terms, I prefer to create a group work for every language, and with diferent nacionalities.

I think is better conform differents sub groups to work together.

I perfectly understand what you mean, @JoseLuisRG , however, while Google is happy to check (and use, when possible) our proposal, I think your suggestion will be extremely difficult to be implemented, because we are all volunteer.
