Most of them are implicit, but some are definitely explicit eg. <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?oldid=1551112#Discouraged_tags">office=goverment</a> ; <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Water_details#Deprecation">water=*</a> ; <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/hazard#Features.2FPages_affected">hazard=*</a>.<br></div><div>Therefore I don't see anything stopping us to vote an explicit depreciation.</div><div>As the proposal process is to "vote on a standard way to tag map features", it should also be used to vote on a standard way NOT to tag features.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Also, if we want to properly deprecate some useless tags, I believe that we should agree over its deprecation first.</div><div>For the users of the data (renders, editors, routers and more), it's a clear sign to stop using the deprecated tag.</div><div>For the community, it's a green light for a smooth transition of tag.</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">Le mer. 5 janv. 2022 à 20:58, Simon Poole <<a href="mailto:simon@poole.ch" target="_blank">simon@poole.ch</a>> a écrit :<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

<p>I don't believe there is any consensus on a procedure for
deprecating tags, if that is even a thing.<br>
