in case you want to be more explicit, maybe covered=yes/no makes some sense? Cheers, Martin ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

In this definition https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/grandstand It says a structure with seats without implying if it's a building or an open frame. Maybe the correct use could be building=grandstand and leisure=grandstand deprecating leisure=bleacher Otherwise, the warning should be removed from leisure=bleacher because it discourages to use this tag.

My view is that a grandstand is a solid building and will contain services for spectators such as toilets, fast food, bars, restaurants and changing rooms. Mostly associated with professional sport. Bleachers are open structures, usually associated with American High School and University sports. I understand that the >tag >leisure=bleachers is discouraged for not being British English. Why? As a native speaker of British English I can see nothing wrong with Bleachers, there is no word in BE to describe these as they are not suitable for a Northern European climate. I think the key difference is a building v open frame structure.

Re: [Tagging] Difference between building=grandstand and leisure=bleachers
The definition of the tag building=grandstand says that they are "usually" roofed, this implies that not always are roofed. I understand that the tag leisure=bleachers is discouraged for not being British English.
