<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Don't like that idea... The 'voting'
needs to be yes/no otherwise it is too much of a judgement call
that will not make sense to most. <br>
<br>
If something is rejected.. then if someone cares enough they can
simply make a wiki page .. just as if they had never had a vote on
the feature. <br>
<br>
The true assessment of a tag is ...<br>
the number of times it is used (relative to the perceived
occurance of the feature)<br>
if it is rendered (even if only on one map)<br>
<br>
New mappers will simply look for a tag.. if they find two or more
things that may suit they will probably chose the best fit (I
hope). <br>

in Australia and another in Africa, and then there are mazes .. at
least two ways for them too]<br>

<div dir="ltr">One more idea: why do we need a binary outcome of
the voting? Something like endorsement=
positive/neutral/negative (the current approve, abstain, reject)
as an indicator tells much more (together with tag use).
Examples:<br>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Endorsement=50/0/2 - very good, important tag (much
involvement) - go on and use</li>
<li>Endorsement=10/0/1 - good tag, of interest to a small
group - go on and use</li>
<li>Endorsement=35/4/28 - not a very good tag, but about an
important topic - nothing better possible?</li>
<li>Endorsement = 4/0/3 - not a very good tag, but few
people care - use as you see fit</li>

<div dir="ltr">Will it be clear for new mappers what the
difference is between published and documented (i.e.
someone created a wiki page that describes a tag without
voting or one that didn't collect enough votes)? Wouldn't
endorsed be better?<br>
