<p>IMHO, the problem is using <a
href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Key:mtb:scale:imba"
target="_blank">mtb:scale:imba</a> in place of mtb:scale for
normal trails which I suspect the intent of the original wording
was to avoid that happening.</p>

<div dir="ltr">I've been using mtb:scale:imba on any kind of trail
where signage at the site notes an IMBA rating, in this way it's
verifiable based on the sign. I don't know what "bikepark" and
"north shore" mean here but while some of these trails which
have an IMBA rating can be consider together as part of a
collection of trails and that collection does have a name
sperate to the individual tracks (which I guess is what bikepark
means) others which do have signposted IMBA ratings are
standalone and not part of a named collection of trails.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So if it has an official or signposted IMBA rating, it
should be tagged regardless of the trail being "natural" or
with "artificial obstacles" and regardless if it's part of a
mountain bike "park" or not.</div>

Especially for North Shore. It is adapted to mtb
trails with artificial obstacles. For "natural"
trails it is advised to use the
mtb:scale/mtb:uphill:scale." - linked to <a

<div>Can other mappers who use this tag frequently
confirm whether it is limited to specifically
designed and built bike trails, like those found
in "bikeparks"?</div>
