Not just power

This term should not be marked as being exclusive to power. wiktionary:pole#Noun. Jidanni (talk) 18:41, 29 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Nevermind, values of this key associated with power=pole are proposed for deprecation at short term. See Proposed_features/Lines_management and https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/InfosReseaux/diary/391058. All the best Fanfouer (talk) 21:35, 29 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Should not be used for public transport

I saw the recent move on this page, from deprecated to de facto to reuse the key for public transport.
To me it's a poor idea for two reasons: first, it has been deprecated previously for the second reason, it involves the :type suffix. A more descriptive key should be found to serve for bus stop poles. Fanfouer (talk) 22:10, 26 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
