In the wiki EN:Key:caravans can mean either a camping trailer
or a motorhome.
But in German, DE:Key:caravans only means a camping trailer (de:
wohnwagen)
The result is that there are 222 objects tagged with:
tourism=caravan_site
caravans=no
Some even with:
tourism=caravan_site
capacity:caravans=48
caravans=no
Some of them in other countries than Germany.
I find this very confusing.
Wikipedia agrees with the Germans on the caravans key.
And on the wiki for Key:access, "caravan" is listen under Non-motorized
vehicles.
But then "tourism=caravan_site" makes little sense for motorhome sites
(de: stellplatz). "motorhome_site" or "rv_site" would have been better.
I guess it would work to tag motorhome stopovers, that does not
accomodate trailers with:
tourism=caravan_site
caravans=no
motorhome=yes
Can we at least agree on whether caravans include motor_homes and make
the English and German wiki agree on that?
