The gluten_free key is controversial because there are many users who support a different key. It is hardly used because it only has 53 uses. The stats for diet:gluten_free did not play any role for my argument. > You can't play the numbers game only when it suits you and stay believable. To me, proposals do matter (so diet:vegetarian from your examples would not be judged purely based on usage stats). I just don't consider it a requirement for considering a tag established. The proposal process is simply one of several valid approaches. As for gluten_free, why I'm even looking at the numbers here is because there has to be some proper reason for giving a key its own Key:* page. And gluten_free does not have an approved proposal, major tool support or anything like that, so the only thing left would be impressive taginfo stats - but it doesn't have much to offer in that department either. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
