[Talk-us] Usage of highway=track in the United States (rjgambrel)

[Bob Gambrel]

I have not tried to follow all of the discussion of this topic and was very
glad to see the wiki produced. When I next run into a "to track or not to
track" situation, I will be looking at the wiki. All of the discussion here
will have been forgotten.

I only have one major objection to the wiki as written (and read by me on
2/24/2021 at 12:37 PM Central time).

Refer to:


   - For any dirt or gravel road[2]
   <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dtrack#cite_note-2>


I believe this bullet should be dropped. In almost any "real" road in
Minnesota that I have driven on, the other highway classifications almost
always apply. I know this does not say for "all dirt or gravel road".

The other bullets in the list and the main international wiki criteria are
much more appropriate. If I were to read this bullet in the future (having
forgotten the nuances debated here) I would be confused.

All above IMHO.
