HI Bob,

man_made=storage_tank
content=water

Yet another curly question.

Dotted around bits of Qld there are droving stock route watering places. 
These seem to be paid for by Qld State Govt and provided by the local council. They consist of a couple of water tanks, some troughs and a holding yard. They seem to have the project name of "Queensland Stock Route Water Facility" with a common site signage (stockman on horse with sunset behind) and from nearest road direction finger sign.

Each site/sign is appended with the local name/use. eg "Chippaway Night Yard"

I was just going to add as an area;
amenity=watering_place
name=(site if known)
Operator=Queensland Stock Route Water Facility

plus any service road access using the same operator+name.,

but wonder if tanks or other info is needed.

I note;

Doesn't have many Qld ones.

Tnx
