"Where traffic_calming is not a pedestrian crossing then
highway=traffic_calming is the prefered way of tagging."

The wiki doesn't mention this and most mappers seem not
to know that, not even in the UK. The vast majority of 
traffic calmings is NOT tagged highway=traffic_calming.

What am I getting wrong here? Did someone remove the 
preferred way of tagging from the wiki and nobody noticed
it for years?

Most traffic calming features are not pedestrian crossings.

Where traffic_calming is not a pedestrian crossing then
highway=traffic_calming is the prefered way of tagging.
