I suggest to make öpnv (German for “Öffentlicher Personen-Nahverkehr”) a tag alias for public-transport. I just added the public-transport tag manually to all öpnv threads.

@mods-germany sorry to bother you, but this doesn’t seem to have been noticed/implemented by a moderator yet.
Das ist auch nicht die Aufgabe der Moderatoren.
@forums-governance can add aliases.

@forums-governance can indeed add aliases, and sorry for being slow to respond to this. When this was first raised, I was unsure about the suggestion because we don’t really have best practices for tag aliases yet.
Specifically, I’m wondering:
- How close does the meaning of tags have to be for them to be considered as aliases? These two terms are related in meaning, but aren’t synonyms.
- Do we want all tags to be used across languages, or are there uses for language-specific tags?
In the absence of clear rules, it would help to see a broader consensus for the change.
