no, I see the wall behind the trough with the water spout as part of the fountain, it is a rock carved decorated wall. Or do you believe it is there just for coincidence?

I don't think the wall is so important frankly, but let's assume we agree on that.

This fountain has the wall and thus is decorative and is amenity=fountain.

This other fountain doesn't have such wall, thus it is not decorative and it cannot be tagged as amenity=fountain (assuming we disregard the recreational utility mentioned in the wiki).

The shape and use of these two fountains looks the same to me.

Why would you tag them as different features?

I'm not necessarily saying they need to be tagged as amenity=fountain, but I would expect their main tagging to be the same and maybe differ in some secondary parameter.
