How do I make an office appear on OpenCycleMap?

The local representation of the German Cyclists' Association has an entry on OpenStreetMap and has tools and an air pump for cyclists on site.
We would like the association to appear on OpenCycleMap as well. For this purpose, both service:bicycle:pump=yes and service:bicycle:repair=yes have been set for the node.
It's been more than a week since the according changes were made - unfortunately I still can't see the location in OpenCycleMap. Any ideas what to do?

Some maps only update once a month, as I understand it. You have to wait for them to update, or maybe contact OpenCycleMap and ask them to update early, but I don't know what the chances of them doing it are.

@oliver @openstreetmap In addition to an update frequency of weekly at best, I have no idea if those #OpenStreetMap tags are actually used by #OpenCycleMap compared with more explicit ones. Best ask @gravitystorm himself (creator of OCM)

Could you have a look into node #1199240513 why it's not on OpenCycleMap, @gravitystorm? 🤔 👆

@oliver What do you expect to see - a tourist information office icon, or a bike repair station icon?

We show amenity=bicycle_repair_station but we don't currently show other features (e.g. tourism=information) with service:bicycle:* tags.

@gravitystorm I was hoping to see a bike repair station since I wasn't aware that other amenities with service:bicycle-stuff are not supposed to be displayed.
Thanks for the reply!

You are supposed to have a separate entry for the bicycle repair stand and the office. One could move leaving the other behind.

With https://mapcomplete.org/cyclofix.html?z=18.4&lat=51.34379511912127&lon=12.369132296106727, it should be easy to add them.
