I was searching for a tag for billboard and I don't see any tag for

move these tags below?
int_name -> name:international
nat_name -> name:national
reg_name -> name:regional
loc_name -> name:local
old_name -> name:old
alt_name -> name:alt or name:alternative
official_name -> name:official
But th

Hi, I just saw this[1] edit and I wonder is this tag established? I
also don't like value of this tag, imo too long which may cause
misspellings.

Hi,
I'm wondering how to tag sedimentation tank at a sewage treatment. I'm
thinking about 'landuse=reservoir' + 'man_made=sedimentation_tank'.
Here's a photo of sedimentation tanks:

Although voting should be ended last year ;) most of votes were added
after vote end. So I think it's finally time to end the voting: I'll
close it after weekend. If someone want to vote, please do it asap.
