You probably mean "not approved through proposal process".

It was definitely reviewed, during including in editor presets,
by OSM Wiki editors, by people who included it in the rendering.

Many popular tags in OSM are not approved but clearly dominant and preferable.

In case that there was some doubt - it my opinion it is preferable to
not use man_made=well tag, to document this preference and to
retag existing values to more standard value
