Eric, I don't think the previous discussion is quite as inconclusive as your evaluation. While it is true that there is not widespread agreement on where the natural=coatline ways should transect a river mouth or river estuary, there is nearly universal agreement that marginal seas, including bays

You cannot point to other area that may, in fact, be improperly mapped as an example when they are like that because locals have been shouted down for doing it correctly. The fact that this keeps coming back up literally means that there is not universal agreement that "marginal seas", whatever

My understanding about this is that there is a difference between British English usage and American usage - especially in the western USA. The English seem to have an idea that "rock" is for mostly solid, immobile "bedrock", while a "stone" is a mobile, separate piece of mineral which you might p

Boardwalk isn't really a good surface value as boardwalks can be made up of a variety of materials not only wood. We do have bridge=boardwalk but that always feels award when the boardwalk is only elevating 10cm off the ground. On Sun, 22 Nov 2020 at 10:22, Mateusz Konieczny via Tagging < tagging

Joseph, It's true proposed tagging deprecates the current pump=* definition according to rationale and wishes to use the pump word in a more appropriate way. However, it would be ok to define mechanical_driver=powered for situations when mappers aren't able to determine a more precise value. That

To me, boardwalk describes the design & appearance rather than the surface construction: An elevated walkway. Although I do admit that's mostly influenced by The Drifters song. DaveF On 21/11/2020 23:20, Mateusz Konieczny via Tagging wrote: Is there some value in surface=boardwalk tag? It se
