However, that photo appears to be of a UK storm drain which is not a manhole by my definition (too small for entry by a person) or by the wiki's definition for Key:manhole which states "Hole with a cover that allows access to an underground service location, just large enough for a human to climb through." In my opinion we should deprecate manhole=drain except where it really is large enough for access by a person. We need a better tag. Well, two tags. One for storm drains and one for sinks that are too small to merit natural=sinkhole with any of the current sinkhole=* types. Oh, and a tag for spreads, too. -- Paul
