Actually I believe wadis should be tagged as waterway=wadi while washes could get waterway=wash (don't know or care because there aren't any around here). We don't call buddhist temples churches, why should we call washes wadi? A wadi is a particular kind of intermittent watercourse and not a universal word for any similar kind. cheers Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
