My initial instinct was to say this too. But if most of these crossing=zebra tags were added by iD users who selected "Marked Crossing" and never saw the zebra tag, then how sure are we that almost all Marked Crossings in the UK will be zebras? Perhaps a Maproulett challenge would be a better way, if aerial imagery is usually good enough to identify zebra crossings. > are you suggesting to just add crossing_ref=zebra, or to convert > crossing=zebra into highway=crossing + crossing=uncontrolled too? If edits are made, we should convert the crossing=* tag too. But we should probably decide what value that should take. iD seems to be suggesting crossing=marked rather than crossing=uncontrolled. However, the former is not documented in the wiki: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:crossing . It would also be really good if we could get the standard UK crossing types (zebra, pelican, toucan, pegasus) added to the iD presets to help UK editors add that information. Currently typing those names in iD doesn't give anything helpful (apart from zebra that returns "Marked Crossing") and there are only the marked and unmarked crossing options if you type "crossing" in.
