https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dprotected_area I've read over both proposals, and both are getting long in the tooth. I realize that the former is slightly more commonly used, but neither have much traction for use in strangely incongruous, overlapping areas that have obscure and complicated legal status as indian nations have, though I think it's time to just go with protected_area, protect_class=24 for this. It's language neutral, culturally neutral, flexible to other protected status (not necessarily political/cultural in nature) and just all around seems like it's going to be easier to tag and for consumers to support and less culturally weird (given that some regions prefer aboriginal, others prefer indian, others feel uncomfortable with "native American" or "first Canadian", and yet more insist on using specific tribe names). Protected_area just solves a lot of the hubris and works for so many more use cases. Thoughts pro or con?
