I think German would be better as a default tagging language, it's
perfect with its word combinations :)
I like the original proposal, but not so much the
reverse_vending_machine phrase. Did you make that up or is it used
somewhere? I'd like something like refund_machine.
I know several shops that have employees that take your bottles and
give you a cupon. That could be service:refund=yes plus all the other
tags.
Unfortunately I did not make this up :) In the OP I provided two links,
one to the English Wikipedia article and one to Wiki Commons with
pictures of different styles of RVMs. I, too, would feel more
comfortable with the term "refund". However, I do not know how
widespread the term "reverse vending machine" is. On the other hand, in
the wiki we would describe it both ways, just to make sure everyone
finds it, and knows what is meant.
Just for clarity: If there would be a common term, like in German, how
would we denote the other options mentioned in the OP, such as operator,
operator limitation, limit to marked refundable items? The latter was
the reason why I thought the commonly used tags for recycling (e.g.
glass bottle, plastic bottle) are not a good idea, because the
refundable items are a subset of those. It would be nice *not* to mix
those up, just to make the automatic data retrieval and querying easier.
(Although I don't know how that would look like, this is an intuition.)
