For example other power network tagging where no such proposal happened or happened at a different time? It seems dubious to attribute that change solely to this deprecation. More likely seems that whatever reason caused greater interest resulted in the increased mapping activity and tagging proposals. Not that tagging proposals resulted in greater activity. Is it possible that change in tag use was result of imports? > > * In 2018, replacement of voltage-high/voltage-low by > voltage:primary/voltage:secondary > Respectively 6200 + 4600 in 8 years (1350/year) versus 110000+95000 in 5 > years (41k/year) => x30 > https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/voltage%3Aprimary#chronology has clear sign of import/bot edits no idea why you would attribute that to tagging proposal > > * In 2021, replacement of tower:type=branch by line_management=branch or > split or cross > Respectively 3600 in 7 years (515/year) versus 22030 in 2 years (11k/year) => > x21 > here using tower:type was a clear mistake, so making tagging this detail more acceptable could have a good effects.
