Amenity is the best fit for this tag. I disagree. (Usually that just means I didn't find anything better) As this tag is always going to be used within another entity I think we should rather look towards something like indoor tagging or other subtags. In addition using amenity for reception

Actually, I was not referring to a new top level tag of waste=* but to amenity=dump_point. I quoted from the previous post but that was very misleading. I wanted to avoid the proliferation of waste types that must be associated with a new tag of waste=* By more carefully defining only one tag,

Hi, We've have *:conditional=* which is useful to describe complex tagging cases, however, it is not able to cover one particular case with spatially distinct trigger. Lets look to this issue through two examples: A) There's Vantaanjoki river that goes under a motorway. Alongside the river
