[Tagging] propose/help to rename a key -

Hi Peter,

protect_class doesn´t exist anywhere. It should be an OSM-own tag.


but I made a decision for "protect_type" because it implies less any 
quality rating than "_class" and its shorter.
it should have its "valence" in combination with protected_area.

than I will update the wiki-page ...

like:
----------------------------------------------
- instead protect_id the key protect_type

and start the follwoing external ID-keys with a "ref:"

ref:NLWKN=NSG LÜ 259
ref:EUR27=3170
ref:BAYER=UZT 56 HH
_Question_ ist, if names-syntax above is usefull, because its barely 
significant, better:
ref:iucn_levle=4
ref:protection_code_NLWKN=NSG LÜ 259
ref:habitat_code_EUR27=3170
ref:hecl_code_BAYER=UZT 56 HH
----------------------------------------------

oh ... I thought, most of mapper would not realise this "backend-action" 
and would be a kind of happy ... but yes, your right.
