I've updated the wiki, please have a look and let me know if you disagree.

From the definition of waterway=fairway, it can be used for the members of canoe routes as long as they are artificial and marked by buoys. I expect this to be rare though. The definition of route=canoe says it should be used only in relations, but I think it may be comparable to route=ferry, which is allowed both in relations and in ways (I believe this is to make rendering ferry routes easier). It seems that specialized maps already render route=canoe relations [2].
