I agree. The wiki is a point of entry for inexperienced contributors and
should therefore document established practices rather than serve as a
way to make marginal ideas appear established.
That said, the subjectivity of what constitutes "established practices"
guarantees controversy...

A few people continue to add unused tags and properties to feature

quite long in the meantime, you can find "proposed" values with names like
"fridge"
"stove"
"drying:room"
"dinner"
which all hardly reach a 2 digit number of usage.

For the "view" tag there isn't even a definition.
I believe treating the wiki like this will generally lead to a decline
in quality of our documentation, because immature tags are pushed that
haven't undergone any kind of peer review (aparently).
Am I the only one with these concerns?
