If people in one country have mistagged things, then I think it's ok to fix that. I don't think it's ok to ask the rest of the world to change to accomodate our mistagging. The notion of what leisure=park means (that many "state parks" aren't included) has been clear to me for years, from reading the wiki when I joined OSM. But I'm not really clear on the total statistics of use of leisure=park in the US and not in the US. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
