I'm not against mapping informal places, but they should be well known for such activities.<br>

These typically have<br /> no lifeguard or facilities. An example deep-content site for these<br /> types of holes is:<br /> <a href="http://www.iforgotthename.com">http://www.iforgotthename.com</a>/<br /> <br /> <br /> In OSM is it best to create an area and tag<br /> sport=swimming/name=xxxx/access=/fee=no?<br /> <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:sport%3Dswimming">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:sport%3Dswimming</a><br /> <br /> <br /></blockquote>Forgetting the tagging for a moment, is it not irresponsible to be<br />mapping and thus being seen as encouraging such activities?<br /><br />Every year when there is hot weather there are warnings not to swim in<br />lakes and rivers, and these are inevitably followed by
reports in the<br />media of a tragic loss of life. <br /><br />The last thing OSM needs is to be seen as contributing to such<br />tragedies.<br /><br />Phil (trigpoint)<br /><br /><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #729fcf; padding-left: 1ex;"> <br /> ---<br /> Separately: there are quite a number of communities mapping geographic<br /> data, like<br /> the swimming hole site, that could but don't use OSM.
