I refer to the Rhiw Valley Light Railway:

This is a private 15" gauge railway which holds regular open days for the public:

 http://rvlr.co.uk/

It is currently tagged as railway=miniature. But the OSM wiki says 15" gauge railways should be called instead "minimum-gauge railways", although there doesn't seem to be any such tag available:

 https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:railway=miniature

Wikipedia suggests that a "miniature railway" is one using rideable *models* of real railways, which is not the case for the RVLR:

 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum-gauge_railway

Should I change the tag to railway=minimum_gauge, bearing in mind this is not a common usage in the UK?

Thanks.

Martin.
