access=designated wiki
Hallo,
during adiscussion within the german forum [1],I have been pointed to
the description box of the“access=designated”wikipage [2].
It reads“A way marked for a particular use.”.
I would like to change it to“A waydesignatedfor a particular use”or“A
wayintendedfor a particular use.”. Probably the latter one.
The reason is, that theword“marked”implies that a way is,well, marked
with a traffic sign or by road paintings, which is notnecessarily true.
Also the topic”generaluse case”is notthatstrictlyformulated as
the“description”boxand allows the use of“designated”inamuchwiderrange
of cases.
Are there any objections against me change that word?
For me, Yes.
If it is not marked .. than how do you (or anyone) know that it is
'designated'?
Ummm 'marked' could mean it is 'marked' on some plan or other rather
than 'marked' by a traffic sign or by road painting ... but I'd think if
it is not marked locally then the 'designation' will be ineffective.
OSM is supposed to reflect what is 'on the ground' so marked is
appropriate. Particularly by a traffic sign or by road painting.
Happy to be persuaded otherwise...
Could you provide a link to the German discussion? That may help.
