The current tagging of man_made=water_well + pump=no/manual/powered is
currently used by the HDM style, featured as the "Humanitarian" map layer
on Openstreetmap.org, to determine what sort of icon should be shown for a
water well. Examples:
On the Talk page, the proposal author has now ignored two different
requests to change the new pump=values to a different key like
pump_mechanism, which would allow the continued use of pump=manual and
pump=powered.
The author claims: "I find current tagging meaningless (with all due
respect to

Yes, that's what I thought
We call them stone walls, but every so often a pedantist comes along and
reminds us that they're actually stone fences.

Looking at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cairn it seems that it is
something more purposefully constructed than
"pile of unwanted stones kept in one place"
Create area and mark as surface=stone ?
man_made=pile_of_stones ?

I was having similar thoughts just a couple of days ago, about what to call
a pile of rocks that a farmer has cleared from, then piled up in, a field?
natural=bare_rock says it's exposed bedrock
=scree has fallen from an adjacent rockface
=shingle is on a beach or river bed
=stone is for large
There is also an undocumented surface=stone, which I tend to thing is
identical to bare_rock. Though I could see "rock" meaning a rougher
surface than stone/bare_rock.

these seem both explicit and ok, although bare rock is a bit redundant
and rock alone has 5 times the usage:

It seems that we have no good value to mark surface of path of rocky paths.
surface=gravel fits for surface of small rocks (almost always man made, though
especially in mountains some may be of a natural origin)
surface=fine_gravel fits for small gravel
surface=unhewn_cobblestone =sett
You stated how you would tag that, which I'd summarize as

Ok, so apparently there is no consensus on that if there are
Dear Mateusz,
Proposal goes through different stages and I was proposing simpler driver=*
instead of mechanical_driver. Comments have been made about the possible
confusion with human drivers driving cars.
I am not a fan of deprecating
pump=manual and replacing it with nearly impossible to remember and less clear
mechanical_driver=manual
Also, this proposal deprecates pump=powered without providing replacement
Now to tag this info one is supposed to select value from
reciprocating_solenoid

that's not the meaning of "lanes", lanes=0 would mean that there are no
traffic lanes. (this is what

really? And if vehicles would be parking on both
In most if not all of the United States, the cars *would* be parked
illegally: most places have a law stating that you can't park on the
side of the road if doing so would obstruct traffic. For example, from
the Spokane Municipal Code:
> It is unlawful for any person to park, or leave parked, a
I would describe https://westnordost.de/misc/2or1lanes.jpg as road
with
- one lane driveable by full-size vehicles
- one parking lane
And tag it as:
lanes=1
parking:lane:both=parallel (judging from what is visible about left side)
