[OSM-talk] Use of area/relation icons on boundaries

Hello,

I've been working to improve various pages on the Wiki.  I've encountered
inconsistencies in how the "area" and "relation" icons are used in the wiki
documentation of boundary relations.  It's not clear which of the two icons
should be used when describing tags that may be applied to boundaries (as
opposed to mere multipolygons).  Various pages across the wiki are using
the icons inconsistently, and having consistent pictoral representations
are useful in providing clear documentation and intent to the community.

I wrote up a more detailed description of the problem on Talk:Wiki and
would appreciate community input on which convention should be used:
