As far as I can see the change you are referring to is

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key%3Aaccess&type=revision&diff=1440112&oldid=1439975

before that, "access=designated" wasn't even on the "Key:access" page,
and Verdy_p added it there:

''(disapproved)'' A preferred or designated route for the class of
traffic specified by the tag key, such as {{tag|foot|designated}}. Using
this value with the plain access key, {{tag|access|designated}}, has no
meaning, and should '''not''' be used. ''(see [[#Transport mode
restrictions]])''

This is obviously incorrect change, as this page is about all access keys, not single "access" tag.
The notation he used suggests that the value "designated" is deprecated.
The wording is inconvenient, the strike-through font for designated is misleading.

On https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:access%3Ddesignated, Verdy_p
added a banner saying "NOTE! The exact key/value combination
access=designated should never appear on an object. The value
*=designated must be used with a specific mode of transport. Examples:
bicycle=designated or foot=designated." - he made this change without
any change comment.

The user rafmar (you?) seems to have assumed that Verdy_p wanted to
discourage the use of all "designated" values, but to be fair to
Verdy_p, the banner explicitly says you SHOULD use the "designated"
value, just not with the "access" key.

I'm pretty sure he wanted discouraged only "access=designated", not foot=designated or bicycle=designated, but he failed. Unfortunately, this wiki article is for all *=designated tags, as the foot/bicycle/horse tag pages redirect to that page. Some changes are necessary, but not that kind.

BUT in this particular case, rafmar's complaint seems to be unfounded
and based on a misunderstanding.

Imagine, you are beginner and want to find if it is ok to use foot=designated tag. What wiki page says so now?
