(Apologies for cross-posting)
Hi all,
I am conducting academic research on how the OpenStreetMap vocabulary of tags
and keys evolved.
For this reason, I am analysing the OSM Wiki website
(http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Main_Page).
It would be very helpful if you could answer some of these

It's not the first time we welcome researchers on this list in such a
bad mood (not necessarily you Jonathan). It's childish. You could
start by explaining that the tagging process is complex, is not only
happening on the wiki,
There are different approaches to surveys and loosely-worded questions or
open ended questions are one legitimate approach.

1. Potlatch popularised the use of a certain set of values for the surface=
tag.
2.
