https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Proposed_features/Water_details&oldid=633881#Deprecation ""Deprecates" means "is equivalent for all purposes to". For example, landuse <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:landuse>=reservoir <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:landuse%3Dreservoir> should be rendered exactly like natural <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:natural>=water <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural%3Dwater> + water <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:water>=reservoir. There are too many uses of the current tagging scheme, and we don't want massive retagging and edit wars." So it was titled as deprecation, redefined deprecation to mean something else and claimed that retagging is not wanted.
