Some people decided recently and alone to introduce the tag "culvert=yes" on the wiki: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:waterway http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:culvert
Question 1 : is "culvert" commonly used by native english speakers ? Is that a term mainly used by civil engineers ? Question 2 : if not, is it normal that OSM average contributor has to use these technical words just to make the civil engineers happy ? Don't we take the risk to exclude more and more average contributors by adopting such technical vocabular ? Question 3 : between tunnel, covered and culvert, how many additionnal tags are we going to create to designate the exact same thing : "the water is under the road" ? Pieren
