#Make the prohibition of usage at [[:Template:Deprecated]] stronger. Currently it reads "''You are still free to continue to use or interpret this tag as you see fit since OpenStreetMap does not have “banned features”. Under no circumstances should you (semi-)automatically change “deprecated” tags to something else ''", which is very permissive, and basically reads "but you may defy community decision as you see fit if you feel strongly about it". At least for positively obsolete features, this should be omitted (and I wish we had a stronger language for deprecated ones as well).

: I'm with you that there is hardly a comprehensible and documented dealing in the wiki with both of these status. @ 1) I'd like to omit the Template:Deprecated (see [[Template_talk:Deprecated#Integration_in_main_Template:Description]]) and therefore I wouldn't create any additional exclusive template like Template:Obsolete. If we could handle the deprecated status within Template:Deprecated, we could do it the same way with status obsolete. – Additional idea: How about adding [[Template:Historic artifact start]] or something similar to tag pages with status obsolete? --[[User:Chris2map|Chris2map]] ([[User talk:Chris2map|talk]]) 15:45, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
