this is in a group with natural=mud, orthogonal to most of the natural tags
which define features (a "ground" isn't a feature, is it?) Possible
alternative: surface=bare_ground

possible alternative: a relation with type=group that combines individual
trees

no idea, maybe subtype of landuse=residential?

not a landuse in my understanding

sounds like an administrative entity, boundary=administrative, admin_level=*

no idea, I guess I would suggest to not use this tag

possibly valid as a subtype of a wall, referring to the kind of
construction and material?

no idea, seems too generic to get an idea what it is about. What about
specifying the kind of facility and verifying that the grounds are marked
with landuse=railway?



entrance=shop

should be discouraged. "entrance" is about the kind of entrance, "shop"
seems to refer to where the entrance leads

Thank you for researching the field of undocumented tags.
