The some of the wiki pages appear to be written for the renders, while others look to be written for the mappers. This is confusing! I believe there should be two versions of the wiki pages - one for mappers who need simple descriptions of the tag/s and another for renders that give information on rendering the tag/s. So two pages - mappers version and renders version.

As a small example;
The properties page http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Properties
this list a number of what a mapper would call an object (bridge, tunnel, cutting) but a render associates with another object to render it correctly and thus calls it a property.
Thus there are two conflicting views that lead to confusion.

========================================
Note I have cross posted this to the general talk group,
but have raised it here as the tagging group has a little more knowledge of the wiki pages for tagging.
