Proposal

Proposal to formalise the (sparsely-used) historic=time_capsule tag.

Time capsules are usually deposited in marked man-made structures, designed to preserve the capsule itself until the set or projected future opening date.

Rationale

These are verifiable objects that may have historical or research significance.

Tagging

• historic=time_capsule
• start_date=Date when the capsule was deposited (optional)
• name=Name of the capsule, if there is one (optional)
• Other descriptive tags, such as access=* material=*

Examples

A time capsule in Wales

Rendering

A pill/capsule-shaped icon
