Thanks for your guessing what Simon means. Thanks for watching on us,
constable.
To be sure to write an understandable message, the topic of this thread
has been removed again.

IMHO, it's perfectly a matter of the Tagging list to make an index of
the most useful tagging documents they wrote.
The general public has absolutely no notion of what tags exist nor what
what they could request for the OSM elements of their concern and they
could find that in that list.
That list could be pointed to by the Notes page

("Do s: Use this feature to
report an error ... or to give some additional information", making a
map omission less fuzzy and subtle
)
which could be pointed to by the OSM.org Help page if it had not been
refused .

André.

What Simon probably means is that this topic does not belong on the tagging
mailing list.
It belongs on the general talk mailing list IMHO.

Are you sure that this is information helping the owner/runner/... of
some feature, let us say a shop, to tell a mapper which available tags
he would like to see, like I explained?

It seems that there is no such information and that doesn't help the
public composing Notes to improve their elements.

*you* are perfectly off topic.
You seem to confuse the mappers and the public.
And, btw the correct, fully meaningful quote is
