It seems that Pieren and I agree on most points. @François Maybe drinkable water is a very special case... but here service/use is much more important than object/feature. The ability to find this water on a map or from any data consumer is useful. It can even be essential to many people from hikers and bikers to inhabitants and humanitarian NGO where water is in short supply.
Also consider the possibility of a open data import of geolocalised water points. We should import them for added value even if the supporting physical man_made=* is unknown. You must tag what you know and what is useful. man_made=water_[object] is useful. amenity=drinking_water/non_drinking_water is useful. Let's tag one or the other and both when we can. For me there is no conflict or hierarchy between these two keys. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
