Both are largely the demesne of the mapper Lutz because the tags were defined by them for use on their historic place project: http://gk.historic.place/ I'm not saying Lutz is the ultimate arbiter of those tags, because OSM is anarchic and nobody controls anything. However, the historic place project is the only carto I know of where those tags are rendered. You are free to add any site_type you wish, even without prior discussion here, but if you want the tags to be rendered anywhere it's best to get in touch with Lutz and discuss it with them.
