Voting
- I oppose this proposal. -- You read it well, I'm voting no to my own proposal, because I think Proposed_features/Wilderness_hut is too close to this one and should cover the cases described on this proposal (why not an additionnal tag)

- Like capacity=4, made_of=steel, fireplace=no,drinking_water=no added to tourism=wilderness_hut sletuffe 15:25, 23 April 2012 (BST)
- I approve this proposal.--Rudolf 16:31, 20 April 2012 (BST)

- I approve this proposal. --Maxbe 18:42, 20 April 2012 (BST)
- I approve this proposal. -- Unless the "Fireplace or stove for cooking and heating" requirement in Proposed_features/Wilderness_hut is removed and relative information provided with a dedicated tag. --Kaitu 19:05, 20 April 2012 (BST)
- I approve this proposal. A generic hut with tags like cooking=yes/no, full_serviced=yes/no, shelter_only=yes/no/additional would be better, but these proposals should work, but they are restricted to later extensions. --Fabi2 19:39, 20 April 2012 (BST)
- I approve this proposal.--Kjon 12:29, 21 April 2012 (BST)
- I oppose this proposal. See comment by sletuffe. The difference to tourism=wilderness_hut is not properly specified. Alternatively, the existing amenity=shelter can be used for this, maybe together with shelter_type=bivouac. You can also specify the building type with something like building=box/hut/cabin/etc. or material=metal/stone/wood/etc. --Fkv 14:16, 22 April 2012 (BST)
- I oppose this proposal. I think the smaller shelters/huts (below alpine_hut) should be tagged as amenity=shelter and refined with attributes (a'la fireplace=yes/no), the proposed tags are neither really descriptive. --SKald 18:58, 22 April 2012 (BST)
- I oppose this proposal. Same opinion as SKald, the Biwakschachtel is a special form of a shelter with prefabricated components, there exists also small shelters made of wood/stones used in case of emergency (not restricted to the alps). --Marmoti 21:42, 22 April 2012 (BST)
- I oppose this proposal. Same reasons as above. All these difference variations of "shelter" are confusing to the mapper. Use "amemity=shelter" and add attributes to specify the details (whether it is open or fully closed, got a fireplace etc). --polderrunner 21:33, 22 April 2012 (BST)
- I oppose this proposal. Same reasons as above (just variations of "shelter", use "amemity=shelter" and add attributes to specify the details) -- Fichtennadel 07:58, 23 April 2012 (BST)
- I approve this proposal. --Extremecarver 08:04, 23 April 2012 (BST)
- I oppose this proposal. Proposed_features/Wilderness_hut is a better alternative --Jorisbens 08:23, 23 April 2012 (BST)
- I oppose this proposal., see user Fkv, SKald, Polderrunner, ... - a more general approach would be good here, like they explained. Quarksteilchen 18:03, 23 April 2012 (BST)
- I oppose this proposal., same as above. A general and meaningful tag is worth more than a thousand specialized tags, that nobody but a handful of specialists worldwide know. Lets stick to the principle: a general tag and attributes to refine it. --BorisC 23:43, 23 April 2012 (BST)
- I oppose this proposal. -- Gian Mario Navillod 11:59, 24 April 2012 (BST)
- I approve this proposal. I think that amenity=shelter shouldn't be used for wilderness buildings -- Gomatteo 12:40, 24 April 2012 (BST)
- I oppose this proposal. use amenity=wilderness_hut + hut_type=basic--Javiersanp 18:00, 29 April 2012 (BST)
- I oppose this proposal. Seem to be the same as tourism=alpine_hut--R-michael 15:58, 2 May 2012 (BST)
- I oppose this proposal. I oppose because this isn't sufficiently different from wilderness_hut. The only difference seems to be the absence of a fireplace and that's not enough to make it a separate entity. --Kfj 11:03, 4 May 2012 (BST)
