Hello aude, I think an alternative style would be great so we could discuss about it and than be able to vote which style is better for us in combination with the Wikipedia-overlay and the style of our vector-skin. On the other side it has also some advantages to use the standard OSM-style so it makes no different for the user which website he use.
Maps with highlighted buildings for tourism attraction sounds interesting but I wouldn't disable the other buildings.

Hello, can one part of the performance problem be, that default style is rendering e.g. buildings in z=12? Ok, I can see extrem large buildings like the terminal from airport Berlin-Tempelhof in this zoom-level but the most buildings have subpixel dimensions. So perhaps somebody is interested in style optimisation. Especially with a view to what Wikipedia really needs, so IMO we could live without "amenity=recycling"...Yes, we need a modified OSM style that's suited more for Wikipedia. I'm working on styles that do things like render buildings=yes + tourism=attraction at lower-medium zoom levels, but render all buildings when zooming in more.
Also, we are using OSM style from some months ago. It's rendering things like parking in a non-ideal way, but has been improved some in the OSM style since. Is this something that I could help with?

PS - I'm really happy to see OSM in German Wikipedia and willing to put more time in to help (if needed) with getting it into English Wikipedia as a gadget, to start with.
