So how do we go with creating a page for a tag that is "in use" but has
apparently never been discussed?

Last week, I asked about a Christmas shop, thinking about tagging it as
shop=party, but it was pointed out that shop=christmas has actually been
used 14 times, but apparently has never been discussed anywhere?

Does that make it "in use" / "de facto"?

Am I OK to just create a page for shop=christmas, so other people know it
exists, or should it go through the full RFC / voting procedure to be
"approved"?

Thanks

Graeme
