Hello, I already have a diary entry for this issue, but I think it would be better discussing it here.
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/giggls/diary/394619#comment48493 The problem is, that real-world usage of the capacity tag on camp-istes is currently inconsistent and thus mostly useless. While the wiki clearly states that capacity means people a lot of mappers seem to think that the number of camp-pitches is meant. The problem is, that both numbers seem to make sense on different types of camp-sites. While the (maximum) Number of people is interesting on group-only, scout and backcountry sites, there is no such thing on camping/caravaning sites at all. In the latter case we are typically talking about the maximum number of tents and caravans while the number of people using the site is usually not limited. As a response to my diary Entry Lyx suggestest two new tags: We already have "maxtents" and we could simply add "maxcaravans" and "maxvisitors" deprecating capacity in case of camp-sites. Similar in spirit would be deprecating "maxtents" unsing "capacity:tents", "capacity:caravans" and "capacity:visitors" in future. What do you think?
