Got an example?

I also note that the example I gave has a 'spur' and that might be a good role 
name for my 'access tack' things.

I strongly prefer to have one relation for the main route, and separate 
relations for alternatives. Put those together in a relation with roles for the 
member relations, not for individual ways. So the lowest level always contains 
only ways, the higher level contains only relations.

The ways in the main relation should form one continuous sorted (sortable) 
route, which data users can extract or link to for navigation or planner 
software.

Note that rendering routes is not that critical, but data use is increasingly 
important.

In the relation.

See https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/1388126

Here the 'normal' members are simple ways with no role, these form the route 
itself.

Those that have a relationship role of 'alternate' in this instance are 
relations themselves but the could be more simple ways.
These form alternate routes to the main route.
They could be for any number of reasons - hight tides or flooded rivers.
In this case the Hornsby original goes through a firing range, Little Wobbly is 
a cheaper alternative to a private water taxi,
the other I am not certain of, possibly an 'access tack' from a train station - 
I would have to look.

Note I am not the author here of 'alternate', but I have done some work on the 
OSM route.

It would be usefull to document the method of  including alternate, side trips 
and access tracks to these routes.

At the moment I and others are using the role 'alternate' for track alternative 
paths.

For 'side trips' (short paths to features of interest) possibly the role 
'side_trip'?

For 'access tracks' (paths from common and signed places that leas to teh main 
track) possibly the role 'access_track'?

Hello everyone,

On the discussion page of the wiki entry Hiking 
(https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Hiking#Synchronize_wiki_page_Hiking.2C_Walking_Routes.2C_route.3Dhiking_and_route.3Dfoot_on_tagging_scheme.)
 I have started a topic, but with little response so far. That's why I come 
here, before proceeding.


Currently, there are four tagging scheme tables describing how walking (or 
hiking) routes should be tagged.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Hiking
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Walking_Routes
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:route%3Dhiking
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:route%3Dfoot

Would it not be easier and more clear if we just keep one, and add a link to it 
in the others?

Last month, I already started harmonizing these four tagging scheme tables. I 
changed the order, added some missing tags, adjusted the explanation etc... In 
my view, I only had to do minor edits. For those interested, here are my edits:

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Hiking&type=revision&diff=1878387&oldid=1873054
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Walking_Routes&type=revision&diff=1881156&oldid=1879580
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag%3Aroute%3Dhiking&type=revision&diff=1878383&oldid=1853636
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag%3Aroute%3Dfoot&type=revision&diff=1878384&oldid=1853797

So these four tagging scheme tables are now almost 100% the same.


My idea was to keep the tagging scheme table on one of the wiki pages, and put 
a link to it on the three other pages. I would like to have broader support 
before going further.


Of course, we can discuss about the content of the tagging scheme. But that's 
irrelevant to my question about the organization of the wiki page.
