[Tagging] [RFC] Feature Proposal - Wave Lounger

[Mateusz Konieczny]

Why not subtag for 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dlounger
?

amenity=lounger lounger=wave
amenity=lounger lounger=wave_lounger

seems better to me as someone can map lounger without classifying
it subtype (and we may have ideas to map more lounger classes in
future)

And mentioning how to distinguish amenity=lounger from
amenity=wave_lounger would be useful in either case

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

"Generalisation should be up to the cartographers and not the mappers."

1) it depends on generalization type, some generalisation
is unavoidable at time of mapping and makes sense
Any classification of real objects (tagging objects in OSM)
already is some generalization

2) It is not changing that 

(A) cascading tagging
( amenity=general_class general_class=detail )

(B) using properties 
( amenity=general_class property=value )

is very often better
than (C) direct superdetailed classification
- amenity=super_detailed_subtype_a
- amenity=super_detailed_subtype_b
- amenity=super_detailed_subtype_c
- amenity=super_detailed_subtype_d
- amenity=super_detailed_subtype_e

amenity=wave_lounger sounds to me like using natural=oak
rather then natural=tree + separate property for mapping that
it is an oak ( say, taxon:en=oak )

or historic=memorial_bench instead of historic=memorial memorial=bench
or historic=blue_plaque instead of historic=memorial memorial=blue_plaque
or... (see other values at 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:historic=memorial?uselang=en#Tags_to_use_in_combination )
