[Talk-us] Mass-replace outdated water=salt

Tue Nov 9 21:14:40 UTC 2021

Hi,

More than 10 years ago, the "Water details" proposal was accepted. It 
included the now well-known tag "salt=yes/no".

Up to the proposal, the tag "water=salt" was mostly used for salt 
waters. Since its deprecation, the usage has been not really been added 
anywhere and is very slowly getting removed. Currently, it's mostly 
still present in some areas of the USA.

Since "salt=yes" is now far more popular, I suggest ending this all with 
an automated edit, retagging all "water=salt" to "salt=yes". What do you 
think?

Thank you - Emil
