For good reasons, there is community reluctance and opposition to mapping
non-existing features.  Proposals
come and go, and few people who map those features ever come back to clean
up later.  These features are also
hard to verify.

 By and large OSM maps things that are physically present.

 Once probable becomes under construction, there are tags for that:

Can I get some advice on marking features as probable? Nothing pops up for me

What do you mean probable ?

If something is on the ground then it is there .. not probably there.

If you think something might be there, from say a satellite view,  go and see 
(called a survey) - you don't need a GPS .. just a visually survey would do.

If you cannot go and see ... mark the node with a fixme= tag .. say 
fixme=probably bus stop  for example...

Does that answer your question?
