[talk-au] Splitting Ways for small roundabout traffic islands

Hello,

Quick question, as I'm not sure that there is an established consensus 
in Australia for this.

Where a way leading to a roundabout has a small traffic island, what is 
the preferred way to map? I have seen both the "traffic island as a 
node" approach (because they aren't really separate carriageways) and 
the "splitting ways" approach (because physical separation and more 
"detailed).

Specific examples: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/121203404/history 
or https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/603989993

Is there a preferred approach, or does it not really matter? If 
splitting ways, are u-turns restrictions required?
