http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:junction%3Droundabout
User Imagic has pushed through changes despite disagreement, and another
editor blocked me from the wiki for making fixes to better match
existing tagging.
Imagic is trying to enforce conflating junction=roundabout with the
"modern roundabout", when it formerly included other traffic circles and
rotaries. This means the wiki does not agree with existing tags on many
circles. Instead of telling you to take the nth exit from the circle, a
router will give you the bloody useless "bear left, bear left, bear
left, bear right" if the junction=roundabout is removed.
I will ignore this garbage and continue to tag circles as
junction=roundabout, just as I still use highway=mini_roundabout for
circles mapped as nodes. I'll also use highway=motorway for freeways
that allow bikes and peds and highway=motorway_junction for exits from
non-motorways, even if some crusader decides to change the wiki definitions.
