<div dir="auto">amenity=fountain is the tag for the object

<p>The request is for a fountain of utilitarian purpose, not
historic, artistic or cultural. <br>

<p>I use amenity=fountain for fountains that are not for drinking,
but for decoration. <br>

<p>This might range from the usual fountain that you'll find
in lots of city centers, up to large fountains like the
Trevi Fountain in Rome that can act as a landmark and is
also a <tt dir="ltr"

<p>The water of those fountains is often not suitable for

<p>I don't think amenity=fountain is suitable at all for
drinking fountains. <br>

<br>
amenity=drinking_water is used for;<br>
<br>
streams that people drink from<br>
<br>
wells that people drink from<br>
<br>
taps that people drink from<br>
<br>
blubbers that people drink from<br>
<br>
fountains that people drink from<br>
<br>
<br>
As such it is very non descriptive! More of a property
key like <br>
drinking_water=yes.<br>
<br>
<br>
Some alternatives?<br>
<br>
man_made=drinking _fountain. Not popular for some,
warning I made it.<br>
