I tend to disagree - the purpose, design and access aspects of a turnstile are normally very different from those of a stile. I think there is a good case for barrier=turnstile - even, if like many other barrier tags, it is not yet rendered. I do not regard a turnstile as a subtype of 'stile'.

So barrier=stile is still the most correct barrier tag, however if you want to save people from being confused you subtype, eg stile:type=turnstile _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
