"General waste container (black bags) (don't use this if the waste is not recycled, use a tag like amenity=waste_disposal or amenity=waste_basket instead)" https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:recycling
Namespacing put aside, could you please help me understand the semantics of this value? Waste in this context should me something other than the dozens of listed other categories. What I think they had in mind was a "mixed" compartment that will get manually selected later on at a recycling centre. However, it is a misnomer in this case, so the term "mixed" or "post_selected" would be much better for this meaning. And I see that there is demand to map those recycling containers that have a non-recycling bin built into it as well, I see that around here often too. There's the well established bin=yes, although if we read it out of context, "bin" on a container could have vague meanings, though this might be nitpicking. Hence a term like "waste" or "waste_basket" would serve a better purpose if we do have an option to decide this. If not, we must highlight on the wiki page that mappers should use bin=* together with recycling=* and that recycling:waste=* (and recycling=*waste*) should be deprecated to avoid confusion, proposing a new value for post-selected compartments. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
