[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Proposal of electricity=* and electricity:origin

[Lukas Richert]

(Fixed subject line for RFC)
> Hello all,
>
> after the comments on the confusing nature of the word 'source' in my 
> original proposal of 'electricity:source', I have now changed the name 
> to 'electricity:origin' as suggested on the discussion page. 
> Furthermore, I would like to revive and extend the proposal of the key 
> 'electricity' as this previously conflicted with parts of the 
> electricity:source proposal and was not consistent.
>
> Both proposal pages:
>
> [1] https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/electricity
>
> [2] 
> https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Proposed_features/electricity:source
>
> The idea now is to allow for the tagging of buildings or amenities 
> that have electricity. The rationale is described in more detail at 
> [1]. Tags such as access, fee, schedule and origin can then narrow 
> down the availability to the public and the question of financial or 
> direct origin of the electricity.
>
> This is distinct from the drafted tag power_supply as it is used to 
> describe the type of sockets used at a specific outlet. The values for 
> that tag are still currently under discussion.
>
> I would also not tag this as a subset of power=* as this maps the 
> facilities and features that relate to the generation and distribution 
> of electrical power and should not be used to map the consumers of 
> electricity.
>
> I am eager to hear the feedback to the revised proposals!

> Best regards,
