To me that's a (partially) waymarked trail and is absolutely fine. > Or signposted QR codes?

I'm assuming you're talking about a lone QRcode somewhere (at the trailhead ?) and not a QRcode printed beside each waymarks or designed to be itself a recognizable waymark (in which case the fact that there is a QRcode is secondary). Otherwise, it depends. Is it really a QRcode standing there without human-readable (and osm-worthy) context ? What prompted you to scan it, potentially following a malware link ? Does the QR encode a url or an actual gpx/geojson/etc file ? IMHO a standalone QRcode pointing to a url is not mapworthy. Especially in today's world where it is so easy to print one and stick it somewhere, it has no more authority than a spray-painted graffiti. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
