parking_space tagging with parking_space=disabled

Hi, I'm often tagging the individual parking_space for disabled people with the sub-tag parking_space=disabled following the suggestion on the parking_space page - in rendering example. I found it logical and it can be used for other particular parking_space like 'parent', ... It is currently used ~10K times mostly for disabled (looking at taginfo). Are you in favor of that method of tagging ? it could either be used with the access tag as proposed or without (at this moment it is mostly used without). --Anakil 13:25, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

Looks "nice" to me though I am not an expert for parking.. I have asked at Talk:Tag:amenity=parking_space#parking_space.3Ddisabled_.3F RicoZ (talk) 18:19, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

compatibility with openwheelmap

Might be useful to consider a similar rating mechanism as https://news.wheelmap.org/en/FAQ/ otherwise there will be conflicting decisions?

I am not familiar with wheelmap.org but it should be compatible.. if not let me know what should be improved. RicoZ (talk) 21:07, 22 January 2019 (UTC)
