Deprecate

Only 400 objects after 5 years, this feature is practially unused and should be replaced by amenity=recycling+recycling_type=centre.--Jojo4u (talk) 12:33, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

I dont agree it should be deprecated. There is a distinct difference between a waste transfer station that mostly manages waste trucks weighing and dumping their contents, compared with recycling centres that are open to the public and allow people to bring stuff in their cars. Please lets keep that difference. Pmackay (talk) 17:31, 5 July 2015 (UTC)

Could you please edit the wiki accordingly?--Jojo4u (talk) 21:32, 5 July 2015 (UTC)

Have made some updates to clarify. OK to remove the Deprecate notice? Pmackay (talk) 08:31, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

Ok. One of us could reference it also from amenity=recycling.--Jojo4u (talk) 16:41, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

Something that doesn't fit here or recycling

I asked about a mid-level transfer station. Something that would be used by consumers, and would accept non-recycled trash (primarily). I was told to use this tag, but the talk above suggests this is not the appropriate tag for this need. Is there such a tag in usage somewhere ?
