[Tagging] Waterway length

[Eugene Podshivalov]

Hi all,
The relation:waterway wiki page
 recommends using
"distance" tag for "the total length of river in km". Was there any
discussion of this choice?
It seems a bit incorrect and confusing, because "distance" is more suitable
for routes as discribed on its proper page
. The existing "length"
tag would fit better, woudn't it?

Cheers,
Eugene

maybe it's a good idea to write a small-summary-only post
to check if there is a consensus on this, because there are probably 
many participants who have dropped out given the number of emails that 
the subject has generated

How to we proceed with this topic? Should a proposal be created or the wiki
pages can be updated straight away by someone or myself based on this
discussion?

Cheers,
Eugene
