<p>Good morning everyone!</p>
<p>Whilst looking at an old railway line around my place I searched
the wiki for "heritage railway", stumbled upon
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:railway%3Dpreserved">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:railway%3Dpreserved</a>, more
specifically the "Alternatived to railway=preserved" section. That
section talks about railway:preserved=yes being the favourable way
to tag heritage railways, so that OpenRailwayMap gets their
rendering fine.</p>
<p>The sections says this: "As of mid-2019, <span
style="text-decoration: none; color: rgb(6, 69, 173);
background: none;">railway</span>=<a class="mw-selflink
selflink" style="text-decoration: inherit; color: inherit;
background: none; cursor: pointer; font-weight: bold;">preserved</a> is
still twice as common as <span style="text-decoration: none;
color: rgb(6, 69, 173); background: none;">railway:preserved</span>=*,
but the latter tag is increasing faster." - well now in 2021
railway:preserved=yes overtook railway=preserved (~9k vs. ~8k
usages) and I was wondering whether it would be in order to
re-word that section to be a little more direct about
railway:preserved being the favourite way of tagging heritage
railways.</p>
<p>Thanks for your input!</p>
