I have mentioned this many times in different situations before: The 
purpose of the tag documentation on the wiki is to document actual use 
of tags.  This derives from 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Any_tags_you_like.  If the wiki is 
no good you should look at how the tag is actually used and improve the 
documentation based on that.  Even if the wiki seems to consistently 
describe the meaning of a tag that is not necessarily the actual 
meaning of this tag.
