This also brings up the question: is it appropriate to edit pages like<br>
this to mention the more common tags at the top, e.g. natural=dune,<br>
natural=sand? Often other editors are unhappy when I add something<br>
like "Consider using the more common tags natural=dune or<br>
natural=sand" - but if anyone can create a Tag: or Key: page, it seems<br>
important that similar and synonymous tags are mentioned at the top.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Even though it may trigger an edit war by this user like this one, go for it. </div><div><br></div><div>-- <br></div><div>Paul</div><div><br></div></div></div>
