I sometimes tag a type with it. In my area there are many individual fountains (usually older ones) but also a lot of the same in ~3 different types. E.g. in your link http://www.roninrome.com/living-in-italy/water-water-everywhere the first pictures are type=nasone (or maybe type=it:nasone). Another criterion might be if you have to keep pushing a button, or there is continuous flow or there is a tap you can open. If you are doing an import you should check beforehand if there is already a drinking water fountain in OSM mapped to avoid duplicates. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
