Talk:Deprecated features

what is wrong with boundary=national_park and aerialway=drag_lift? Walley 17:01, 30 August 2007 (BST)

There is nothing wrong with boundary=national_park. It is currently in use more than 750 times in Europe alone according to tagwatch. Since there is also no alternative nor a reason given for its depreciation I'll remove it from this page. --Cartinus 21:56, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

According to Proposed_features/Power_Lines#Votes_4 power=line isn't deprecated. 21:12, 12 October 2007 (BST)SaschaR

Does anyone have or remember a reason why the tag lit=* has been added to this list in July 2007? It's still in the list of Map features and I couldn't find any reasons for deprecation, not from this Wiki nor the mailing list archives. In few days I will remove it from this list unless given some reason why it should be here. Alv 18:19, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

User:Hawke today updated description of why the abutters are deprecated. Page Key:abutters is not marked as deprecated, abutters are still on the Map_Features page. I tend to follow the current tagging "best practice" - but this is very confusing to me --Dido 20:39, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

[diff from march 19, 2008] also edited by Hawke, changes deprecation of abutters=mixed to more general abutters=*

I do not recall whether it was my intention to change that. It looks like that change was mostly intended to change to using the Tag template, and that change may have been accidental. I know there has been discussion in the past of problems with abutters. But if someone wants to modify it back to abutters=mixed that's fine by me. --Hawke 22:03, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

URL vs. Website

Looking for consensus to add url=* to the list of deprecated features, per content at Key:url. --Ceyockey 03:40, 8 July 2011 (BST)

I'm ok with this Ogmios 10:50, 15 July 2011 (BST)

sorting unclear

Should this table be sorted via date or Old Key/Value? :-) --Zuse 19:28, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

OpenStreetMap does not have "deprecated features"

Errr.. Stupid question: Why does this page state that "OpenStreetMap does not have 'deprecated features'" and then go on to list them? Isn't there a better way of explaining this at the top? -- Harry Wood 11:17, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
