I noticed that some islands within Pymatuning Reservoir ttps://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=12/41.6074/-80.5203 , a large reservoir that cuts across the Ohio and Pennsylvania borders for 8 miles, weren't visible on the main map layer and was going to trace them.
The islands were tagged natural=land, what I recall was an outdated tagging scheme. The water is consists of multiple adjacent closed ways tagged 'natural=water' I wasn't sure whether natural=coastline was the correct current tagging for them, so I checked the wiki page and noticed that for waterways and bodies of water (that aren't the ocean), to use a multipolygon relation with tagging the islands as 'inner' My hunch is that if I create the multipolygon relation across multiple states, some state extracts [OHIO, PA] may not contain any of the reservoir if I were to create one multipolygon relation for all of the Reservoir. Is this correct? What's the recommended course of action to satisfy consumers of OSM data and mappers?
