Sigh ... .
I find it amusing..


Thirdly, dare I say this, will someone argue rubbish= indicates that
there is rubbish there, on that spot ?  preferable to say
rubbish_disposal or something similar.

There you have a very good point. And waste_disposal fits well too
Ok .. humm disposal ... could imply no recycling ... what about
waste_collection ?

That may not have been used in OSM before .. so no conflict... nice. What do you think? ... change rubbish to waste_collection?


I do believe we need a high level key for rubbish, trash, waste whatever

Hmm, rubbish_receptacle perhaps ? And definitely not
rubbish_receptacle_desk !!

:-)    That is the spirit.

At present there as a number of 'waste' values under the amenity key.
Some people say the amenity key is being over used. There are people
thinking of adding more waste values to the amenity key. So there is a
case for a high level new key for waste facilities. The number of
possible values of this is key I estimate at 27. Don't fixate on the
values of this key - the ones shown are examples only .. and would need
there own separate proposals.

Unfortunately the key waste= is already in use, so to avoid conflicts
and mistakes a new name should be used - thus 'rubbish'.

========================
Is there a better way? So far the choices look to be;

A) More values under the key amenity such as amenity=waste_dump_station?
B) More values under amenity=waste_disposal in the key waste=?
OR
C) New top level key rubbish= with new values under that?

Any other options?
And what one do you prefer? May be a why would be good.

Personally .. I don't know. I think a new top level tag would be good in
that it does separte it out from hte others and provides a clear path
for new rubbish tags. But I also acknowledge the problems/work that this
would introduce. On htewhole I'd go with the neew top level tag, I like
a good structure, but any other good ideas or arguments can easily sway
my present view.

---------------------
I'd like to leave the comments open for 3 weeks .. unless there is a
vast amount of comments made and changes/additions to the different
choices that could be made.
So possible closure on 2 march?
