In order to avoid repeating ourselves again in a year: should I add a

discouraged?
Thanks, I support this idea. If the discussion comes around, it means
that the wiki needs some work.
I’m all for tagging details, and if someone wants to add man_made or other tags to an
amenity=drinking_water he should do it, but I don’t want to require it. (We’re using
“fountain=<type>” around here to tag subtypes of drinking fountains)
amenity=drinking_water works for me, and it is widely in use, to discourage its
use in the wiki you would need more than a discussion of a handful of people on
this list.
This list is meant exactly for discussing such things - if not here,
then where?
Discouraging will not make it disappear over night (or even a year!), so
I feel safe about it.
It's important to add typical examples with
man_made=water_tap/water_well/* + drinking_water=yes/potable/* as
preferable solutions and check again after some time how is it going. In
the worst case the transition will stop at some point (probably taps,
wells and pumps are the majority of such sources), but we will have more
specific tagging in many cases by then, so it would be still a positive
change.
