Hi,

noticed that there is

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:maxspeed%3D20&redirect=no

and a few more speeds - does it make any sense to have such
pages around?

If you take a look at the "what links here" link from the wiki you'll
see what they are used for. In this case almost all pages about Kosmos
rules, but also some other.
The thing is that if you add something as a tag in wikipedia
({{tag|maxspeed|15}}), you'll automatically get a link to a wiki page
for that tag. And since it is pretty senseless to have a seperate page
for every different speed limit, they are redirected to a general page
about the maxspeed tag.

I would leave them in.

For the wiki, you should use the tag template like {{tag|maxspeed||20}}
ie 2 | vertical bars after the key. Then it doesn't create a link to the value.

But there's nothing wrong with redirect pages on the wiki anyway. It helps people find the correct page, and avoids creating duplicates.
