Before creating a proposal

Does it already exist?

  1. Search for possible documentation on this Wiki.
    For example:
    • You want a tag for a racecourse; consider searching for "racing", "horse", etc.
    • You want a tag for a peninsula; consider searching for "headland", "point", etc.
    • You want a tag for a brewery; consider searching for "beer", "manufacturing", "alcohol", "industrial", "plant", "works", etc.

If you come across an Abandoned proposal and are interested in reviving it, see Reviving old proposals.
If you come across a previously Rejected proposal, being a rejected feature does not necessarily mean it should not be proposed again. Some proposals fail due to a poor definition, being ambiguous or lacking information to justify their significance, or becoming more significant over time and thus more map-worthy.

  1. Check Mapping issues to see a list of known issues relating to mapping and tagging standards.
  2. Search for the tag on Taginfo to see if there is any usage otherwise.
  3. Ask community members in one of the Contact channels if it exists.
  4. It might also be a good idea to send an email to the tagging mailing list, describe the feature you want to tag and see if there are tags in use but hard to find or not yet documented.
