Hello,

That page says "This would apply to c. 113 000 features".  For the 
avoidance of doubt, are you suggesting (after the acceptance of this 
proposal) that people would "just start using the new values", or are 
you planning a series of edits following 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct , or 
do you believe that acceptance of 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Key:archaeological_site 
implies acceptance of a change to OSM data as well?

The reason that I'm asking is as can be seen from 
https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/site_type#projects I'm currently 
using that tag to control display of features (actual example code at 
https://github.com/SomeoneElseOSM/SomeoneElse-style/blob/master/style.lua#L5622 
for info) and it'd be good to know when I need to change that to say 
something else.

Best Regards,

Andy
