It may take some time, but we are generally confident that it will all work out some day ;-) While there aren't well defined, documented tags it is clear that different, similar tags come up, and some will eventually make it, others will sooner or later be merged or tags added (when there are definitions and someone has checked on the ground that the objects fall into the category). If you want to speed up this process, you can prepare a proposal for one or more of the features we are talking here. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposal_process Cheers, Martin
