The reference on the wiki to the default-proposal was made in 2010 (fourteen years ago) by user @FrViPofm (the author of the default-proposal) , my first edit on this page is from 2022 (see page history) .
Just curious:
-
On what grounds do you attribute this link to me?
-
why do you think the proposal is only from 2018 instead of 2010 as mentioned here?
The proposal has been mentioned at the very start of the page for more than eleven years:
Also curious:
- why do you claim to link to the proposal to be dubious if the author has made it himself and it has been on the page for 14 years?
In the proposal access-defaults are also linked to and the default-wiki page has led to confusion that has caused the most problems with these tables:
the notion that the values here should not be tagged on the element (which for some is even today a reason to remove them from the OSM-database)
For a correct understanding of the way to interpret these tables it is crucial that it is clear that that specific notion of not-tagging (ad deleting) all the values from the tables was never a part of an accepted proposal, although some mappers treat it as such (for reasons that are beyond me), shout “that value is needless since it is default , see the default-access page”, and go on to do mass tag-deletions of valid data that often go unnoticed.
Moving this notion from the end of the introduction (where it was from 2021, fine by me) to the very bottom below all the tables where no one will read it does not do this justice, it is really a step backwards your arguments mentioned here seem -how can I put this friendly- not overly researched.
