The "voting" in wiki is totally non representative therefore it<br>
means absolutely nothing (or as we can see are damaging).<br>
Especially when we take into account that these proposals there<br>
created by people with 0 experience in fields that matter.<br>
<br>
It is very sad and disturbing to see that OpenStreetMap fails to<br>
implement at least one of the safeguards against incompetent and<br>
destructive actions:<br>
a) require at least minimal experience<br>
b) provide hard limits on when some tagging can be changed or not<br>
<br>
This leads to a classic situation of *** with a grenade decimating<br>
perfectly working parts of the system and there is no way to prevent<br>
that.<br>
Like "deprecate 100000's of usages of landuse=reservoir, deprecate<br>
100000's of usage of waterway=riverbank, deprecate 100000's of usages<br>
of landuse=forest", what is next? highway=*?<br>
