<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Some very good tips there RichardF.<br><br>><br>>Don't be fooled by the siren voices of the wiki. What's in the database<br>>is valid because it's formed by consensus.<br>
><br><br></div>To come to the defence of the wiki (yes, there's a lot wrong with it, but there are also some good people putting in a lot of effort), it's worth pointing out that what's in the database is also affected by what tags the major editors expose/have pre-sets for, and also what gets rendered on the main map style (tagging for the render).<br>
<br></div>I suppose my point is that the only true consensus is when documentation, mapping tools, data in OSM, and the renderer all align. And as you pointed out so eloquently the best way to do this is by having a healthy community that talk and listen. :-)<br>
