<p>Luckily for you that you're not a data consumer because otherwise
you would want the OSM community to actually listen to us which
they don't do at all sadly :(<br>
</p>
<p>We have two options:<br>
1. If we find a way to distinguish between url=*, website=*,
webpage=* which is also reasonable understandable to newbies, then
it can be an improvement. But as I followed the discussion here I
doubt that we find a good definition for each of them.<br>
2. We deprecate url, website, webpage in favor of website or url
or webpage and do an automatic edit to change all occurrences of
the deprecated ones to the approved one. But we don't touch all
the tags for the social media websites because they are special
websites and handled differently by most applications.<br>
