To be clear, this is a grey area that the original post was not discussing. If a route is "famous", even if it is unsigned, then I think it deserves being in OSM. That "famous" bit crosses into "local knowledge". The route has a name everyone knows and uses. It isn't a nameless trace someone mapped for their personal use. The routes I map are official routes made up mostly of cycleways, with various crossings and detours where the cycleways cannot be constructed. The official route switches from cycleways on one side of the river to the other to avoid upcoming obstacles - the rider is asked to detour onto roads, sidewalks, pedestrian crossings, and other ways that are not dedicated cycleways - "detours" that are mapped (and usually signed) as the official route. This collection of ways - cycleways, sidewalks, marked ped crosswalks, unmarked cycleway crossings, and roads make up the larger route. I am more forgiving of the idea of marking MTB trails Because MTB routes are often the only trails through an area passable to bicycles. They probably include a lot of double-track "tracks" as well. But Cycling routes through a city or region for commuting/transportation are often chosen because they are designated from the myriad of roads and ways that one *could* cycle on, but this route was selected just for them because of affordances (dedicated ways, cycle Lanes, curb cuts, etc). Mapping every loop route you enjoy cycling for excersize in the mountains is treated as one of these transportation routes - deceiving users into thinking there is a route that is good for cyclists trying to cross the mountains, when it is actually a Narrow two lane trunk road with no shoulder and no sidewalk - and loops Back to where you started. They are not cyclways for transportation. I don't want regular cycle routes used for transportation confused with random routes made by hobbyists for their weekend training. The MTB route discussed sounds like it should at least be be considered in OSM as an MTB route - but that is for route=MTB people to discuss. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

I agree. `brand` is for (e.g.) `brand=Weatherspoons`. You could use `sells:Guinness=yes` to record that something is sold. But that's not always helpful, because (e.g.) there are many pubs in England that sell Guinness and aren't “Irish pubs”, and Irish pubs which don't sell Guinness (there's one in my city like that, but they will sell you a “Black & Tan” 😡).

But this is speculation. These are not simple small side roads, these examples are large, primary traffic arteries and noone is able or willing to fix it for a decade?

Better to drop it. it's too vague/general. All the examples in this list are leisure places (Beach, lido, park) at which sunbathing is just one of many assumed activities.

That's not likely if Openstreetmap-carto is the renderer in question, because all common values of seasonal=* are treated the same as intermittent=yes. The SQL is: "CASE WHEN tags->'intermittent' IN ('yes') OR tags->'seasonal' IN ('yes', 'spring', 'summer', 'autumn', 'winter', 'wet_season', 'dry_season') THEN 'yes' ELSE 'no' END AS int_intermittent, (See https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/blob/ea73a44105ad1c3a0ebff817d4a8e9ea9233124b/project.mml#L212) That means that intermittent=yes is currently rendered the same as seasonal=yes or seasonal=wet_season and so on. - Joseph ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
Re: [Tagging] Cycling relation misuse
I compare it with the Via Francigena in Italy. That route is very well signposted, but even if it were not, you would see signs of its existence and importance in road names, milestones, names and signs of dwellings and café's along the way. There are self-registration points on the way, resting places with a pilgrim sign. And yes, all the locals know it and will point you to it. You'll get complete local history lectures with it, which I would not record in OSM though :) .

Re: [Tagging] Removal of rendering for waterway=wadi
> If it is a valley, wouldn’t there be water at some time, even if very rarely? Off the top of my head, there are at least 3 types of valleys that never contain running water: 1) Valleys in karst formations, where all surface water disappears into cracks or holes in the limestone and flows underground. There are several moderately large valleys like this near me, where there is no visible surface watercourse, even though my area receives over 200cm of rain a year. 2) Valleys in cold climates where the temperature never is above 0 degrees. There are a number of dry valleys in Antartica like this, as well as in some high-elevation Alpine areas. 3) Valleys in very dry climates, where there is never sufficient rain for surface flow of water. The deserts in southern Peru and northern Chile are like this. Many small valleys there are formed by wind or motion of fault lines or plate tectonics, not by flowing water.
