Also, I was impressed with the proposed feature mentioned earlier. It is a
very complete and well done proposal

I am simply using the tag lit=yes on the playing field. I don't tag the 
poles, lights themselves at this stage.

There's also the question of sports centres, which may include a

gym/fitness centre, climbing wall etc.
If the swimming pool is in a separate part of the building, and has 
its own name etc, then it makes sense to map it separately. But what 
if it is mixed in with other facilities, and shares the same changing 
rooms?

Or a swimming pool within a hotel, or a school?


the tag sport=swimming should be used to indicate what sports a 'sports 
centre' supports. Or that a swimming_pool can be used for 'sports'.
The tag value swimming_pool does not indicatethat the sport swimming 
takes place there .. it may only be a leisure activity rather then 
competitive.


As only the swimming pool should be tagged with swimming_pool... not any 
changing rooms, showers, toilets .. that may be present and shared with 
other things. These should have their own tags.

There has been a long tradition of this mailing list (and, before it
branched off, the talk mailing list) making recommendations on tagging
schemes, so I see no reason to suddenly question this. In this case
the recommended tag is the more popular tag, but there have also been
instances were a fewer used tag was recommended.

How are lights other than street lights, such as those  used to illuminate
the playing field at stadiums, tagged?

Why not stick to the simple facts and note that "leisure=swimming_pool
is the more popular tag to use"? If you say "is discouraged" or "is
recommended" the question is always, by whom and when did they make the
decision to discourage it and did they even have a right to do so. If
you just state the facts then you avoid this problem.

[Tagging] Swimming pools

[Matthijs Melissen]

Hi all,

There are currently two tags for swimming pools in use:
* leisure=swimming_pool (511 413 occurences)
* amenity=swimming_pool (46 495 occurences)

Historically, amenity used to be the more popular tag, but usage has
shifted to leisure, with amenity now making up less than 8% of the
instances. Would it be time to mark the amenity-version as
'discouraged' on the Wiki?

In addition, it seems that the swimming pool tags are used for two
different things: the pool itself, and the entire building/area
(including showers, cafe, etc.).

Would it be useful and possible to resolve this ambiguity? We
currently have leisure=water_park, but it seems to more focussed on
recreational swimming with water slides etc. Does it make sense to use
leisure=water_park for indoor swimming pools that are focussed on
swimming lessons or speed swimming as well? If not, should we use
another tag for such facilities? Any other suggestions to resolve the
ambiguity?
