Re: [Tagging] [OSM-talk] Should we map things that do not exist?

I agree with Mateusz Konieczny. If there is some vestige of the object remaining, then mapping it in some way seems reasonable. But, if the railway, building, highway, etc., are completely removed and there are absolutely no visible remains of what was once there, it can be removed.I don't see the

If there is any detectable sign that there was a rail there one day, surely it could be mapped - and especially so if the locals still remember and/or refer to it. If it has been completely removed, with other things built on top of it, or the area completely remodeled so that there is no trace of

I think I agree with what Kevin is saying, but I confess I'm not sure what the problem is.   In my area, even looking at a nearby big city,  most of the 'paths' are dirt trails.   There are some cycleways too.   I'm not sure anyone maps sidewalks. I think the fundamental problem is the original

Hi, Marc: What I say is that, following this thread it's not clear to many of us that we have to deprecate a tag with which we are quite happy, and that a more clear definition would suffice to go on using it. Like for example the defining characteristics suggested by Jean-Marc Liotier today:
