22006: the tag man_made=campanile documented in the wiki but is used only 130 times.

The normal tagging for a campanile is man_made=tower + tower:type= bell_tower should be covered by the same pictogram. (it's "official" and used more then 5000 times). The pictogram is misleading, as a campanile is much higher than the bell-frame shown in the pictogram (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_tower; https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campanile)

Cambiare icona shop=pet - Change shop=pet icon

non mi piace tanto l'icona per shop=pet, solo il gatto è un po limitante, almeno un cagnolino a fianco... (e/o un pesciolino o serpentello) dato che si vendono un po' tutti gli animali e non solo gatti...

I don't like the shop=pet icon, showing only the cat is restricting, maybe you can add a dog near it... (and/or a fish or a snake) because a shop usually sell different types of animals and not only cats...
