*Proposal:*
I’d like to drop `covered=booth` as a suggested tag, as it’s superfluous.  If the telephone feature has `booth=yes` or `booth=K6` you know it’s a booth.  Then we’re not repurposing the `covered=*` for a thing that it doesn’t normally do in other situations and isn’t documented on the main `covered` page.

Thoughts?
Booth is a rubbish name for a tag. It is an obscure, American term. Many things could be a booth, eg a shop, or a photo booth, or a ticket booth. In UK English, it is a "telephone box". If you want to tag a telephone box, why not a tag for man_made=telephone_box?

It actually tells you what it is. You can add extra tags for the specific style or model if you care about that.
