I disagree with this. The wiki is guidance for what is considered,
especially for newbies, to be the correct way to tag. I confess this is
subjective & open to (very long ) discussions, but to believe a tag is
correct just because it's in the majority is incorrect.
As an example I give water=river/canal/stream which is now preferred
over waterway=riverbank, even though there are fewer occurrences at this
point in time.
