Exactly my point.<br>
That's why I say the wiki is too ambiguous and restrictive.<br>
<br>
A practical example (more simple, but still historic and cultural
one):<br>
<a href="https://www.diariocoimbra.pt/files/news/5d8411800e7e4.png" target="_blank">https://www.diariocoimbra.pt/files/news/5d8411800e7e4.png</a><br>
<br>
If I map this with amenity=drinking_water any Portuguese who uses
OSM for searching waypoints is going to search for "fountain", not
"drinking_water". But if I'm a newbie, I go to the
amenity=fountain's wiki and I read "The water of those fountains is
often not suitable for drinking" and I only see examples of
decorative fountains there. <br>
That's the main issue I'm struggling with. <br>
<br>
But I agree with the amenity=fountain + drinking_water=yes for these
cases, adding the historic and heritage tags wherever possible.<br>

<div>How could we deny there is cultural or historic background
for this fountain?</div>

<div>A purely utilitarian purpose water source in the city would
