Hi Andrew, Some would say yes some would say no.
Personally I think it should be tagged as you have suggested. Just remember to add a separate way across the entrance of Botany bay as a coastline way or join the existing coastline across the entrance.

Currently it is tagged as natural=coastline. Since its name is "Botany Bay", would it be bad practice if I changed it to natural=bay? Also Botany Bay contains some small bays which are also part of Botany Bay, so would it be best to split these smaller bays (like Woolooware Bay) from the current way, then make a Botany Bay relation of the main Botany Bay body and the smaller bays? Here is an .osm save from JOSM of what I propose (I couldn't work out how to get JOSM to generate the change file without uploading it to the OSM server, as I assume that would be easier to read), http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=FPz6b5eh _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
