I think there is a different problem, as the user who removed the item 
from the map-features list did this with an other intention. Following 
his user page [1] he's no friend of the proposal process and his main 
problem was the small number of uses of this tag [2].

I can follow this argumentation but it makes it hard to have two sets of 
rules to follow when creating tag-pages in the wiki.

I contacted him and we'll what will be the result of this discussion.

Some people like this, some like that. In this discussion it seems that 
telling the Thread-OP to come to the ML would not have made it easier to 
talk to him, so it was best to come with him and discuss it there.

There still should be one common channel to send important notifications 
to both discussion lists, but that should not be discussed on this list.
