I'm looking for a very long and sufficiently detailed list of every possible type of facility that exists in the world today, or perhaps is likely to exist in the future. For example, the list would include "cinema", different kinds of cinemas, various "restaurant" types, "apartment"s and a rough set of those, "park", "ice cream factory", "stock trading company offices", "video game studio", "bank desk", "computer server farm", "llama wool farm", "aquarium", "public greenhouse", etc.- I have a project of mine in which I am creating city. But whether it would be a game, novel, physical model, 3D city model, or a movie, isn't important. For this, it would be very useful to have such a list of all sorts of facilities I'd need to put in my city.
- Is this something that even belongs on Codidact? If it does, what is the best way to collect and present the contents of the list? A question may be discoverable, but having many different answers seems unproductive. Limiting the question to a single answer could work. Would an article be appropriate? Is content added by suggesting edits? How do we quality-assure it? Do we require sources for everything? How do we maintain a source list? Again, is this appropriate for Codidact, or am I better off looking for a more traditional wiki for it? Maybe Wikipedia already has such a list?
- This can really be of use outside of just "world-building", though. It's more or less similar to asking "what are the different kinds of facilities that exist in the world today?"
