For start: the best place to propose improvements to default map style is to propose it at https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto
In other places it is highly unusual that somebody involved in development map style will notice it and on issue tracker ( https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues ) proposed ideas stay under implementation or rejection so nothing is missed (though somebody still need to implement it), On Sun, 7 Jan 2018 19:58:54 +0000 Doug Hembry <doughem...@hotmail.com> wrote: > You are right that I raised the issue of the green fill for > leisure=park because it is being used for large, wild protected > lands That is clearly incorrect tagging.

Could you clarify? https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary=national%20park?uselang=en is already rendered so I am curious why people still tag for renderer and use leisure=park in places that are something completely diffferent.

Note that in my experience (limited to Europe) it is very unusual for entire park to have a single land cover (either grass or trees or anything else) and it is vastly simpler to draw park area than many landcover=* or landuse=* areas. > On the other hand, one could argue that since the natural=*, > landcover=* (and even landuse=*) tags exist, why should we be > providing another, special way of fill-coloring parks (even small > urban parks)?

Especially as this tagging is not terrible and is simpler than proposed new one and widely used. Completely broken waterway=wadi tag still haunts us (see https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/1365 ) for links to gory details. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
