I wrote the summary of the thread I started on Talk list regarding
protected areas and nature reserves:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/kocio/diary/42861
It's sometimes hard to tell which list is proper, because both tagging
and rendering are discussed, so I guess such summary might be
interesting here. Please, read the linked entry for detailed
explanation, but in short I think we should:
1. Discourage leisure=nature_reserve and make it a subtag of
boundary=protected_area (if needed, otherwise just use a protect_class=7
or other class if known), like:
- nature_reserve=yes - 2 uses
- protected_area=nature_reserve - 22 uses
- protected_area=nature - 61 uses
2. Drop boundary=national_park, since it's easy to identify them all and
they are equivalent for boundary=protected_area + protect_class=2 anyway.
