If there is an approved proposal that introduces tag
electricity=yes with definition
"There is electricity available, either continuously or on a set schedule, see schedule <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/electricity#Schedule>."
and no explicit restriction limiting its use, then people sooner or later
will use it on nearly every single building in say Paris or Kraków despite that it provides
basically no info
natural=tree was intended for lone or significant trees, now in some places
every single tree was mapped (sometimes imported)

I have already said that I agree with you and will add that language into the final wiki page, although I personally think that it is a given that one shouldn't tag things when there is a clear default. Abstain from the vote if you must - I asked often enough if there were any other small fixes that need doing, but I strongly object to the word > encouraging> in your text. Encouraging would be if I explicitly asked people to tag this on every public amenity, which I don't.
