Hi! "amenity=drinking_water works for me" it's ok for me too amenity=drinking_water it is a very good, universal, proven and needed tag. I wondered if it was possible to determine the quality of the water more accurately. It looks like with drinking_water=yes/no/boil/ ... is an indispensable tag, widely used, easy to use and used by many app.
I can not understand the introduction of the amenity=water_point tag. Was not better to add water_point=yes/.? e.g. amenity=drinking_water drinking_water=yes water_point=yes I do not understand what's different in water_point from amenity_drnking at the moment I think it's 100% synonymous. Browsing wikicommons in search of water point examples, you can clearly see that it is a synonymus/replacement for drinking water. I have the impression that this tag is used for drinking water in the Great Britain, but someone should check it out. Humans, machine, animals need clean unpolluted water. I do not know what the division is due to. If is clean water tested from amenity=water_point can not be used for watering animals or people and vice versa? How was the water source's efficiency calculated for tag amenity=water_point? If there is such a waterway=water_point tag, maybe should be a new tag created for the fuel boat service station e.g. waterway=fuel?; https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dfuel Someone can explain the reason for imports amenity=water_point https://postimg.org/image/f3607hgl1/ for example an increase in the amount of the tag amenity=drinking_water https://postimg.org/image/f3607hgl1/ you can see big differences http://taghistory.raifer.tech/. news https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/water-point-provide-safe-affordable-drinking-numerous-chayon-moitra there is more.
