One that I was unsure about was the loss of the amenity tag on

(see changeset discussion there).

When tagging that I was copying and pasting from the wiki at the time (the item concerned is what Germans would call a "Robidog" I think - they're rare in my bit of the UK although dog waste bins aren't.
