Yes, but a traffic light for whom? I've seen mappers who assume it means "walk"/"do not walk" lights like this: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Do_Not_Walk_sign,_Great_Neck,_New_York.jpg. I've seen mappers who assume it means there is a sign *just* to warn traffic about pedestrians, as can be found in the UK. I've seen mappers who assume it means there is a nearby traffic light that means cars sometimes stop at this location, but it doesn't say anything about having a "walk"/"do not walk" sign. The wiki only says, "Position this tag where the crossing-traffic (pedestrian, bicycles) have their own traffic lights.". Pedestrians having "their own" traffic lights would seem to imply the lights are specific to the crossing and not that cross-traffic has to stop sometimes, but it does not say which type of traffic light: cross-traffic (cars) or pedestrian traffic. I've tended to assume it's the former, but have run into many, many mappers who think it's the latter. I tend to avoid mapping it at all because I don't want to add ambiguous data to the map.
