Sorry about that - maybe it should have been broken into 2 separate things?

Is the tag emergency=rescue_stations being proposed?

Currently the Emergency page has the heading "Other Stations" with
emergency=mountain_rescue being the only thing listed under that heading
(until recently, when you have added emergency=water_rescue_station). This
proposal will change that heading to "Rescue Stations", with various tags
to define each type of Emergency Rescue Station.

What are the tags which are proposed and what will be the definition of

The existing  emergency <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:emergency>=
mountain_rescue
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:emergency%3Dmountain_rescue> will
remain unchanged.

The existing emergency <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:emergency>=
disaster_response
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:emergency%3Ddisaster_response>
will get a better definition to cover each countries Emergency Rescue /
Civil Defence service/s

Two new tags

emergency <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:emergency>=marine_rescue
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:emergency%3Dmarine_rescue&action=edit&redlink=1>
for non-military "lifeboat" / Marine Rescue units

emergency <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:emergency>=mine_rescue
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:emergency%3Dmine_rescue&action=edit&redlink=1>
for dedicated Mine Rescue stations

I did mention that the existing Lifeguard classification could also be
moved to this area, possibly under a new emergency=water_rescue tag, but
that would probably be better done as a separate proposal.

Thanks

Graeme
