cemetery=grave is already in use tag, you will not deprecate it by emoji poll

Would start with man_made= , following =tomb etc. But aside from how you should use the poll functionality, and this needs a proposal, I would go further to propose a man_made=cemetery feature to accompany it.
Okey, a little summary:
Meaning that in a traditional pool voting, it likely woulnât be much different.
And yeah, valid points
cemetery=graveis commonly used, so tough to make to obsolete- semantics are a problem there, but we have got many of these, so maybe we are okey there
- lack of actual
landuse=cemeteryoramenity=graveyardshouldnât be an issue
Some other ideas:
landuse=cemeteryshould be depreciated in favor oramenity=cemetery- not many people realise, but a graveyard has to be next to a church or a chapel. In that sense its a type of cemetery, so we better have
cemetery=graveyard. There are other types of cemeteries so this would be a good grouping
All this should rather be solved sooner than later, because the use of man_made=grave increases and soon we gonna have same issue as we got with amenity|landuse=graveyard|cemetery or natural=wood|landuse=forest.
Use of man_made=tomb is increasing as well, because some people refuse to us apprroved tomb=columbarium along with historic=tomb coz they donât think that itâs historic enough. Actually, very recently wiki page was edited with this idea with no actual discussion, but iâm not opposing, just pointing out that so many people do things solely on their own
And there is this amenity=crypt which gladly is only proposed and should be made obsolete, because we have got tomb=crypt already and itâs actually approved
