[Tagging] The saga of landuse=reservoir vs water=reservoir

[Joseph Eisenberg]

Using terms such as "on a rampage" and "gods know where else he is
buldozzing" is inappropriate and does not contribute to this discussion.
Such rhetoric will not convince other mappers to use a certain tagging
method. This language does not promote an open and welcoming community. It
does not demonstrate an attempt to assume goodwill.

In this cross-cultural environment where many are writing in a language
which is not their primary means of communication and where we all live in
different places with different cultural values, it is very important that
we attribute good intentions to others.

If there are any problems with the ideas or words of another person, please
criticize the misinformation, but do not personally attack anyone or
suggest that another mapper had bad intent. Ad hominem arguments are not
persuasive nor effective.
