household appliances are not (only) scrap metal but contain typically a fair 
amount of other substances that require special taking care of.

I work in recycling society and there is 2 differents flux

domestic packaging "metal, plastic, carton, paper, glass" and other
(scrap_metal, concrate, green, produit chimique, oil,...).

this is 2 differents waste collection types and sites collection are
differents.

metal is for me a material. scrap_metal is for an object we need transform
to give them a second life.

recycling:metal_packaging ?
If we go to that you use also carton_packaging, glass_packaging,
metal_packaging, wood_packaging, paper_packaging, plastic_packaging

how is this usage currently tagged ?
if it's with recycling:metal and if it's common, then we have to change
the wiki documentation to describe the actual usage (currently the wiki
informs that recycling:metal is about scrap metal).
but given the ambiguity of recycling:metal, I think it's better to
depreciate it in favor of a few precise values (scrap_metal, domestic
packaging, etc.).

Domestic refuse metals like metal packaging from consumer products (think
like, food and beverage cans), something that you can typically drop off at
your average grocery store parking lot recycling center.  As opposed to
scrap metal, which is pretty much everything from car hulks to household

It depends on the context I suspect.  If we're describing bins at the 
local tip, then the terms may well be pretty much synonymous. If you 
move a bit further up the value chain though there's definitely a 
difference - a company that is a steel stockholder may well be involved 
with recycling metals but will probably bristle at being described as a 
"scrap metal merchant"!


Any attempt to deprecate values is probably a bad idea.  If you look at 
https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=recycling etc. you can see 
that there's quite a lot of overlap between values, but I wouldn't worry 
about it.


Best Regards,

Andy

I can't see a difference between recycling:scrap_metal and
recycling:metal. If a distinction was intended, then a more clear tag
should have been chosen (e.g. recycling:iron or
recycling:magnetic_metal). Actually i would have preferred
recycling:metal (the additional scrap_ is unnecessary), but as
recycling:scrap_metal has been used nine times more often, it seems
sensible to deprecate it instead.

As for more specific metal recycling: some recycling containers for
tin and aluminum cans also accept small metal items like screws, nails
or chains. Maybe it makes sense to tag this. But how? Using
recycling:scrap_metal (or recycling:metal) would likely make people
wrongly assume that they can also dispose of larger pieces of metal
there (e.g. pots, pans, metal shelves or bicycle frames). What about
recycling:small_metal_items?

By the way, am i right that recycling:cans is for both tin and
aluminium cans (and thus implies recycling:aluminium)? Or is it only
for tin cans?

Wishing everyone a happy new year!

Best regards

Markus

then my suggestion would be the deprecation of scrap_metal in favor of metal. I 
could imagine though that the term scrap metal was introduced to distinguish it 
from other kinds of metal collection, like e.g. aluminum cans or aluminum foil
so for me it seems plausible to have different tags for metal recycling, 
generally.

the wiki describe recycling:metal as "ll sorts of metal – possible

the wiki doesn't describe recycling:scrap_metal

does this seem coherent as depreciation?
if yes, the new value should be documented :)
