Hi,
I have made some changes and advanced
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/livestock_dip
to status proposed.
2 Problems I have with it ..
Type of dip
Rather than use livestock_dip
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:livestock_dip&action=edit&redlink=1>=immersion/sprinkler
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:livestock_dip%3Dimmersion/sprinkler&action=edit&redlink=1>,
it might be best to use dip
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:dip&action=edit&redlink=1>=immersion/spray
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:dip%3Dimmersion/spray&action=edit&redlink=1>?
This stays away from the animal, concentrating on the 'dip' and
identifies the process rather than the equipment.
Conflicting access tags
access <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:access>=private
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:access%3Dprivate> with horse
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:horse>=yes
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:horse%3Dyes&action=edit&redlink=1>
says, for OSM, it is private access but public for horses ... for us
humans it is private for the use of horses.
A way around that is to not use horse=yes but something like
animal/livestock=horse.
I prefer animal, as that can be used for pets, zoos etc, livestock is
restrictive.
Livestock is used some 3,000 times .. no documentation that I could see,
but it looks consistant.
Animal is used some 10,000 time .. poorly documented and used not only
to specify the animal but facilities like school, wellness, swimming ..
a very confused key!
I think the key animal needs a good clean!
