Hi there.
In Portugal and most Mediterranean countries, there are literally
thousands of fountains that are not decorative like those examples at
the bottom of the wiki page:

I'm talking about fountains that exist in every small village or even at
the side of the road, like these:

What's the best way of tagging these fountains? They're not decorative,
they're utilitarian architectonic structures made to deliver drinking
water.
amenity=fountain doesn't seem to fit here, neither
amenity=drinking_water.
amenity=drinking_water is used for;
streams that people drink from
wells that people drink from
taps that people drink from
blubbers that people drink from
fountains that people drink from
As such it is very non descriptive! More of a property key like
drinking_water=yes.
Some alternatives?
man_made=drinking _fountain. Not popular for some, warning I made it.

I know that we can use fountain=* in both tags, but which one?
Regards.
