I want to add a new type of fence for Key:fence_type

Does anyone mind if I add to the wiki “fence_type” https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:fence_type a new value “corrugated_metal”? In my environment, a lot of these fences and not enough relevant value:

You can see examples in Google Street View:

I agree we need a separate type for this kind of fencing. Almost all fences in Australia are either a sheet metal fence with various styles of corrugation or metal pool fencing type or wooden fence palings, replacing the old chain_link types that were so popular in their day.
For me it would be good to further define the fence_type and add corrugated_metal , metal_tubing and wooden_paling.
