This, as with much of the wiki, is badly worded. People get very precise. eg using the word 'always', when writing about general descriptions. They get fixated about their interpretation & forget there are alternatives. I know, I've done ti myself. The writer was assuming that the linear barrier (fence) would have a node barrier (gate) in it at the point where is crosses another way. As this post proves, it's not the case. It should read something like: "When a linear barrier intersects a way, tag this node with the appropriate node barrier tag if it differs from the linear tag." Note I changed crossing to intersecting as two ways crossing each other don't have to have the same elevation. eg an electricity cable between pylons can cross over a highway. The following points about 'entrance' don't even make grammatical sense to me.
