To avoid future misuse of the tag there needs to be 2 tags

One for cleansing - elimination of contaminates

The other for cleaning - beautification

If only one tag were made people would use it for both functions.
 I really do want to avoid the misuse of the tag by those who cannot be bothered to make a more correct tag.

In order to separate the two I like to distinguish them by using shoe for the beautification/cleaning and boot for the cleansing/purging. The boot is usually seen as the more rugged of the two and usually taken as the thing used for bush-walking/tramping etc.

So possibly

man_made=shoe_cleaning

and

man_made=boot_cleansing
or
man_made=boot_purging

Any other ideas as to words to use?
I like that purging is a significantly different form from cleaning - leading to more visual separation between the two tags.

Thanks Warin,

I read your suggestion for "man_made=boot_cleansing", I'd opt for "man_made=shoe_cleansing" since I don't wear boots but running shoes as a runner not a hiker. The QPWS web site mentions "footwear", I think shoe would be the most inclusive term.

P.S. Sorry I didn't reply on the tagging list, don't know of any way to reply to that thread without having received those emails.

    Don't know - nothing in OSM I can see.

    I'll ask on the tagging list and see what they say.

    Note .. it may well not render/show up on the maps for sometime even
    once there is a tag and there are a few 100 mapped.
