Hi,
I just mapped my third tank in about a month and I'm still wondering why it isn't 
documented in the Wiki alongside historic=aircraft, historic=locomotive etc. There's 
quite a few of them mapped already, according to Taginfo. One could argue that tanks are 
more often than not parts of war memorials (like here: 
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ad/Starovi%C4%8Dky-pam%C3%A1tn%C3%ADktankov%C3%A9bitvy-1.JPG/1067px-Starovi%C4%8Dky-pam%C3%A1tn%C3%ADktankov%C3%A9bitvy-1.JPG)
 so they don't have to be mapped as stand-alone objects, but this is not always the case 
(today, I mapped a tank that's an open air museum exhibit, the other day I saw one 
serving as a mascot of a military school). Is it perhaps because the word 
"tank" can also mean a container for liquids? Maybe we should use something 
like historic=armoured_vehicle?
Regards,


Humm to be more universal?

historic=military_vehicle

military_vehicle=tank, armoured_personal_carrier, radio_vehicle, radar_vehicle, mobile_rocket_launcher, *
