Sorry all. I'm on Thailand time and had to sleep. The highway=traffic_calming key is found on the top level highway page here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:highway. On that page a link to the types of traffic_calming device appears: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:traffic_calming.
I assume they are to be used together. As I said earlier, one could make an argument for skipping the highway=traffic_calming key but as it stands now, I think the two go together.
