<br>
I propose a tag for holy wells, one of the reasons being that my local<br>
council wants them mapped and I've been trying to convince them to use<br>
OSM for a while. Also, because it would entice rural mappers to get<br>
started and because they play a role in tourism (if you count pilgrimage<br>
as tourism).<br>

<br>
I'm especially interested in other religions' perspective, but I don't<br>
know if this phenomenon exists outside Christianity and Paganism.<br>
