It's not just this mailing list. Go to openstreetmap.org and try to find a page in Dutch (for the Belgian community -- besides how to map a). Or even try to subscribe to this mailing list without any knowledge of English. I'm thinking of a whole category of retired people, that love to walk, bike,

Ivo, ik geef je gelijk dat we sommige mappers afschrikken door alle/veel communicatie in het Engels te doen. I'll agree that we might scare away some (potential) mappers by doing most communication in English. m On Mon, Jun 24, 2013 at 10:04 PM, Ivo De Broeck wrote: > Misschien een andere taal

For "bomputten" one could use historic=bomb_crater, but only when it has some historic value (e.g. when it's marked with an information board). I'm still under the impression that historic=battlefield is not meant for each individual bunker or bomb. The typical example in Belgium would be Waterlo

Indeed, I aggree. Dropping the amenity would probably be enough I think. If you take it a step further, I don't even see where amenity is allowed on a relation checking the wiki (bear in mind I made 2 of those myself which I'm reconsidering right now) So stricto senso, it's not allowed, furth
