I have been tagging a big bunch of natural=river_terrace in eastern Senegal. The features that I have been tagging are ridges that follow the course of a river in rocky terrain - not quite a canyon, but more abrupt than a valley... I could have tagged them as natural=ridge but I stumbled upon natural=river_terrace and since they are dependent features of the river I thought it would be more appropriate and http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural%3Driver_terrace seems to agree. Anyway, I tagged natural=river_terrace on open ways - the same way it is normally done for natural=ridge. The JOSM Validator doesn't like that: "natural type river_terrace - Unclosed way". But then, the http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural%3Driver_terrace proposal mentions that natural=river_terrace should not be used on areas - only on ways.So, which is right ? Open way, closed way or both ?And should natural=river_terrace even exist or should it be natural=ridge + ridge=river_terrace ?
