Thank you Martin, I will make some limited changes, which I believe are consistent with the recent discussions, to make it clearer that a fountain - which deserves that name - can also have a utilitarian function of delivering drinking water. I will also add a couple more photos of historic fountains which serve potable water.
After making these changes, I will send out a summary note to this list just to be on the safe side. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dfountain Best regards, Stuart On Tue, 4 Feb 2020 at 14:02, Martin Koppenhoefer <dieterdre...@gmail.com> wrote: > Am Di., 4.
