That says:

" An individual washing machine which is available for public use. It's
almost always a part of a laundry room. You should tag the laundry area
with shop <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:shop>=laundry
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:shop%3Dlaundry>, and you can
optionally tag the individual washing machines with amenity
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:amenity>=washing_machine"

In camping grounds / caravan parks, I've seen washing machines sitting
outside the toilet block, under cover, but not in a room as such. I have
sometimes tagged these as shop=laundry, but am now wondering if that tag
should really be included, or if the washing-machine tag would be
sufficient by itself?

& use of these machines is for people staying at the park i.e. customers.
Does that make them "available for public use"?

Thanks

Graeme
