No worries.

 

For what it’s worth, I fully agree with you. Any emergency=lifeguard[_*] that’s 
not anywhere close to water is pretty much guaranteed to be a tagging error.

 

While on the topic of lifeguards, lifeguard=place on a node doesn’t really fit 
to beaches where there a lifeguard place is usually, but it can be anywhere in 
a larger section of the beach on a day by day basis, depending on the weather 
and sea conditions at that moment.

 

Do we have any tagging scheme for “an area in which it is likely for a 
lifeguard to be”? I’m not sure if simply tagging an area with 
emergency=lifeguard lifeguard=place is appropriate for that.

while some show a shape in one image, but other's, possibly during the northern 
winter, show an empty deserted beach.

 

 

I would consider lifeguard=place to be still acceptable for these if there is 
some defined time when a lifeguard is present. Maybe specified with a seasonal 
tag or opening_hours (e.g. only on weekends or something like that).

 

If it is not near water .. then how does it match the general perception of 
'lifeguard'? 

Definition of lifeguard - an expert swimmer employed to rescue bathers who get 
into difficulty at a beach or swimming pool.

 

Where did I ever say something else?

 

Apologies .. me reading things that are not there??
