I have introduced the bubbler tag because internet search suggested it was
a suitable term, and it works well in the sense that you can imagine what
it is about just by looking at the tag "fountain=bubbler".
In general, I suggest you take out your phone and make a picture of the
drinking fountains

these tags are misleading, you are not describing drinking water, hence it is
not a suitable approach IMHO.

I think the above should depreciate amenity=drinking_water as it is
more generic.
I do like this approach, however it forces people to actually describe
several features when entering data in the database rather than just
writing "here you can drink".

Yes, I agree with Mateusz: I would find deprecation of amenity=drinking_water
to be highly problematic. It is a very long-established tag.

everybody can write everything in the wiki, but man_made=drinking_fountain is a
low usage tag and drinking_fountain=yes is virtually unused (10 times
globally), whoever wrote this didn’t research actual usage. Where is it written?

I would be interested to learn how you would call them, if "fountain" is
not the correct term. Also I would like to add another example and ask
whether that's a fountain for you:

(don't let the name irritate you, just by looking at the thing).

so basically you call a "fountain" what we call in German a "Fontaine", or
"Springbrunnen", and what could be more specifically called a "waterspout
fountain" in English, i.e. a structure where water is blasted into the air,
and have no word for all the sculptural fountains that don't jet water in
Thank you, I will close this long thread.
It makes no sense to keep talking about all these things here when the
purpose was just the deprecation of man_made=drinking_fountain.
I'll open a new thread in which I'll try to write my ideas about all
this in more detail in order to have a more in

Wondering if one solution for continually running "fountain" vs a start /
