Is it now unavoidable that the info box content on tag definition pages in the 
wiki comes from the database? Is there consensus that the higher complexity to 
edit it is less important than the features we gain from it?

E.g. here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dbridge

I find it unfortunate that the edits to the tag db don’t show up in the page 
history for the tag definition page, so changes to these are much harder to 
spot and history becomes much more complex because you have to look at several 
sources (first of all you would have to be aware that there is a database from 
where this comes, then you must find it and get the history from there). 

I believe this is incapacitating the wider community and creating a context 
where it becomes almost impossible for an ordinary mapper to make even a small 
modification to these parts in the wiki.
