[Talk-us] Is it useful to record whatever land use is limited by Massachusetts Article 97?

[Mateusz Konieczny]

I got some very useful feedback and I updated 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:massgis:ARTICLE97

"massgis:ARTICLE97=1 tag is considered as useful, while tag itself is unfortunate

massgis:ARTICLE97=0, massgis:ARTICLE97=9 are useful primarily as indicator of
poor quality of data concerning nature reserves."
