no the suggestion is that instead of historic=ruins one should say
    historic=fort, ruins=yes

at Historic under ruins it says
     A replacement proposal can be found at Proposed_features/ruins
for ruins of historic buildings. E.g. historic=castle, ruins=yes

Since I have done some, and will likely do  more,  mapping in historic forts
[ http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Bill%20Ricker/diary/8633 , which
is not a ruins but nicely preserved ],
this tagging controversy is of interest to me, as is your fort. Where
is this fort with a well of ghee ?
