+1 Most the roads around me, or places that I've visited, that
are good dirt or gravel are not 'track'. IMHO a track is a poorly
maintained 2 track or jeep road. <br>

<div dir="ltr">So, I realize that "any dirt or gravel road"
is the most broad interpretation of highway=track, but if
you follow the ref, it's taken directly from the West
Virginia wiki page which discusses road classification in
that state. I took that at face value that WV mappers
actually have that interpretation. Since I haven't
exhaustively looked at all of the state wiki pages, I
don't know if that's a unique interpretation or is an
interpretation that is representative of a broader subset
of US mappers. The goal of writing that section in the
wiki is to document how we actually map in the absence of
any prescriptive guidance from community consensus.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>However, dear US mappers, if we as a community feel
that this interpretation sourced from WV's page is
overbroad and not an appropriate usage in the US, it is
entirely within our power to form a consensus otherwise
and document that instead.</div>

<div>I have lived in a number of US states. I agree that
definition is overly broad. For example, close friends live in
a rural area with a dirt road leading to their property. It is
well maintained and definitely not a track.</div>
