There were 4, tagged as dinosaur trackway or dinosaur footprints or
similar. Obviously, even though dinosaurs were quite big, I can't see
them on satellite view, so I just changed the key to description and
added geological=palaeontological_site.

Do you have a feeling how many "archeologic" sites in OSM are in
reality palaeontological? I fear this is a frequent error, but
difficult to spot.

    Hello all,

    I'm doing a huge tidy-up amongst the values for "site_type",
    documented
    in a diary post:
    https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/b-unicycling/diary/400151

    I've come across a few dinosaur footprints, but that is not
    archaeology,
    because archaeology is about man made structures. Is there a way to
    implement a warning into the editors not to combine
    "archaeological_site" with dinosaurs? I will replace the few I found
    with geological=palaeontological_site
    
(https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:geological%3Dpalaeontological_site).

    Maybe this is the wrong mailing list for it...

    Anne
