Hi Christian,
This is more or less man_made, like the ponds inside habitation walls.
Went back to https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:water.
I propose that we follow the suggestion to use the tag combination
natural=water
water=pond.
Pierre

Should we tag the ponds with "landuse=pond" or with "natural=water" and
"water=pond"? For me it looks like the ponds are more natural than man_made...
Or does anyone find some good guideline to distinguish man made ponds?
