Hi

There are ~260 of closed ways with the tag 'building:levels=elevator'.

This tag should have numbers as the value not text, the number being the 
number of levels.

See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building:levels.


These object all are associated with railway stations around Sydney and 
appear to have been added by members of TfNSW team. I have left a 
message on one of their members changeset but have had no reply.

There are no other uses of this tag elsewhere in the world.


My thoughts are to change the tag to 'description=elevator shell' as 
these look to be the walls around the outside of the moving elevator 
that is presently mapped as a node in these cases.


Examples

Way 993829900 https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/993829900

Way 996164524 https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/996164524


Any thoughts?
