Some years ago, the default action to automatically watch a wiki page when you modified it, was activated, and since then I'm monitoring changes to the pages I care about. Since this setting was introduced/changed, more eyes are on the pages (but it isn't helping for problematic new pages, naturally, I guess there are similar streams for new pages, and I hope some people are having an eye on these, but I'm not sure). > It might be helpful to agree that Tag: and Key: pages on the > Openstreetmap wiki should document "de facto", actual mapping practice > rather than what a particular person thinks should be done - this > being reserved for Proposal pages. > yes, although it is hard to tell, often, because when you go checking some instances, ideally you need to know the "thing" that is represented, so everybody will have a very limited view of very few examples she personally knows. And it is also clear that there will always be some outliers. When you discover them, you can either change the docs to include them, or you can remap them to more appropriate tags ;-) If we go always with the first solution, we will end up in the long run with all tags meaning everything (or nothing) ;-).
