<div>1. The deprecation definition is currently formalized and <a
href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Deprecated_features"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">well described</a>:
"A deprecated tag or deprecated feature is tagging that is
recommended by OpenStreetMap community consensus for removal
and replacement with other tagging."</div>
<div>Therefore I don't understand when you say that "it's not a
formal concept".<br>
</div>
<div>I don't aim to change that definition at all. My only
proposal is to better define the reasons behind a deprecation.</div>

<p>Anybody can add literally anything to the wiki, doing so doesn't
make a concept formalized, a consensus or anything. You can argue
that stuff on the wiki that has weathered well over the years does
have some kind of standing, but given that essentially all wiki
changes are stealthy and fly under the radar, the time to achieve
such status needs to be a bit more than just a couple of months
back.<br>
