[OSM-talk-be] Mapping Party: infrastructure for the homeless

[Marc Gemis]

I wouldn't touch the page unless you want the wiki-police at your
front door. :-)
You can use any proposal, actually any tag, but it's best to document
it. Since it is documented, I would just leave it as it is.
The heritage tag is already for years in this state and no one
bothers. When it's a good, popular tag it might be "promoted" to in
use without voting.

The only "correct" way is to do a RFC (to be announced on tagging
mailing list), then open voting (again announce on tagging) and wait
for the results (2-3 weeks usually).
M!dgard  has some first hand experience with the process.

Many smaller tags do not follow this process. I see new building
values popping up all the time (building=service, anyone heard about
that one before ?) They just get added to the main wiki page.

It's up to you how much effort you want to put in it. I think you can
better spend your time making a webpage (umap or other) that shows
those places.

just my .5 cent on the approval process
