amenity=bicycle_repair_station and
service:bycicle:repair=yes are<br>
rather self-explanatory and well defined as far as I can
tell.<br>
Abandoning a tag because some large contributor misuses it
isn't going<br>
to improve the state of the database. Contact the
ill-advised<br>
contributors to make them understand the issue and fix
objects which<br>
got the wrong tag, but don't move a well-established tag
to a new name<br>
just to make cleaning up easyer.<br>

<div>If it were just one or two, I'd agree. <br>
</div>
<div>The problem is more distributed, and concentrated in
non-English areas of mapping.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Note that I "invented" this tag in the first place, so
feel a responsibility to fix it.<br>

<div>I've left a number of notes or changeset comments and
just feel it's playing whack-a-mole. <br>

Is theOSMwiki page for amenity=bicycle_repair_station available in
'their' language? <br>
I note that basic pages are done for German, Russian and Japanese
... <br>
<br>
No matter what new name is chosen .. there will still be misuse of
it. <br>
I'm presently trying to resolve the basketball, volleyball and
netball confusion ... as in these can be easily confused by armchair
mappers. But I think that I must accept that there will be errors. <br>
