That is an interesting case!
Looking at mapillary, it looks like part of it is paved. I'm not sure
whether that makes it a footway or not, but it looks incredibly dangerous
to cross there:

if you are having trouble where people are “fixing” your mapping, then draw a
way with no highway=* tag
(as barrier=fence) and add
the crossing=no tag to the road itself.

Hey Markus,
This is a very good example that I somehow forgot to add to any of my
replies / the wiki. Thank you for reminding me!
There are certainly many crossings that have pedestrian signals but are
tagged with the flavor du jour of crossing=marked because the latter can be
mapped from aerial

Unfortunately, people will draw the crossing if there isn't negative
information there saying to stop doing that, e.g. crossing=no. I'd add
crossing=no to that particular place in addition to your recommendations.

or some other indication that this is a commonly used crossing point.

+1, I would also suggest for fences and walls to tag the height.

Draw the fence.

if you do not draw the ways for people to cross, then they don’t exist, right?

Hi Nick, hi everyone,
I welcome these proposals (crossing=marked, crossing:signals=* and
footway=island) [1] to bring order to the pedestrian crossing tagging.
Thank you, Nick, for your efforts so far!
I have two questions, not about the proposals themselves, but about
pedestrian crossing tagging
