 I'm not 100% sure what you mean by "how I'm mapping into the OSM tag
schema" but for street lamps I was placing nodes and using the tag
"highway"="street_lamp" which is how the wiki says to tag them.
As for dealing with conflicts, I used overpass turbo to query all the
existing street lamps and made sure to do my test uploads in suburbs that
didn't already have any street lamps in them. I'm not really sure how I'd
merge with any existing street lamps at the moment.
Hopefully this goes to the mailing list. I don't really know what I'm doing.
