is that it is not just one or two, there is a <br>

who on <br>
the wiki consider it their mission to educate mappers on correct
use of <br>
tags (based on certain ideas regarding key semantics or data
model <br>
ideas in general) rather than documenting their actual use. The

uselessness of many tag pages on the wiki - <br>

are good <br>
examples here - is largely due to that. They are filled with

looking for substantial information on tag use with nothing but

confusion.<br>

<p>In general, on spotting the problem on wiki the best way to
deal with it is to edit it</p>
<p>(it generally takes less time than complaining).<br>

And results in edit wars.<br>
I have amended your edit on landuse... and in landcover<br>
I do not like the change the meaning of land use as defined on its
wiki page. So I have tried to moderate that. <br>
<br>
I hope I have been even handed .. but I have my bias too!!!<br>
<br>
Would someone like to read them and see what you think? Preferable
someone with less passion than I (and possibly some others). <br>
