I’m all for tagging details, and if someone wants to add man_made or other tags to an amenity=drinking_water he should do it, but I don’t want to require it. (We’re using “fountain=<type>” around here to tag subtypes of drinking fountains)

amenity=drinking_water works for me, and it is widely in use, to discourage its use in the wiki you would need more than a discussion of a handful of people on this list.

cheers,
