I just wanted to emphasise that this proposal isn't really about
whether to tag qanats - it's about whether to tag them with
man_made=qanat or waterway=canal+canal=qanat.
There's already 1000 tagged, and they're very patchy geographically.
It's quite likely there's upwards of 100,000
It would be great to be able to formally deprecate man_made=qanat
before it becomes de facto.
Hopefully we can get enough interest in this issue for the vote to be
convincing.
The issue with waterway=qanat could be that it is only applicable to
those structures that still carry water, while many of them will not
be in a working state, or maybe I’m misguided?
I could imagine using historic=aqueduct with a subtag aqueduct=qanat
for all of them, and add the waterway tag to distinguish working from
nonworking?
The use of the lifecycle prefixes should be used.
disused:*=* for things that can easily be put back into use.
abandoned:*=* for things that require a lot of work and $ to be put back
into use
and so on.
disused:waterway=canal+canal=qanat ???
