A detailed explanation of when Nominatim uses the is_in tag was recently posted 
to the talk mailing list 
[https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2016-August/076596.html]; it 
only does so for certain objects and only when boundaries haven’t been mapped 
properly.


It may therefore be possible to add advice to the wiki saying that anyone who 
adds this tag anywhere else is wasting their time, but as with other tags you 
would want to consider other data consumers.


So, is there anyone else out there who uses the tag differently and is it safe 
to add this information to the wiki without a health warning?
