Hello all

I've noticed that recycling:food= has been added [1] to
amenity=recycling wiki page with the meaning "community fridge [2] to
help reduce food waste".

[1]: 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:amenity%3Drecycling&diff=1908674&oldid=1906084
[2]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community_fridge

In my opinion, it's not a good idea to tag community fridges (public
refrigerators) amenity=recycling, because containers for recycling or
reuse are only for depositing and not for picking up. What if there
are also containers where food can only be deposited, but not picked
up (similar to containers for clothing donations)? We couldn't tell
them apart any more.

As we already use amenity=public_bookcase and amenity=give_box for two
very similar facilities, it seems better to use something like
amenity=public_refrigerator or amenity=community_fridge.

What do you think?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Best regards

Markus
