Talk:Tag:vending=water
Change of definition
@Cz ja: You changed the wiki description from "A machine vending drinking water" to "A vending machine for filling bottles with clean water for a fee." in revision 2439412. That constitutes a considerate meaning change. Is there a discussion about this change somewhere else? Otherwise, I'd vote to revert the change. (In any case, the description on the page and in the tag details box is not inconsistent.) --Flo Edelmann (talk) 12:39, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for starting the discussion. I have found that the definition of a tag is not consistent (Referring stricte to the photo of the water vending machine). The description I have added refers to the photo and to the points that can be viewed by the overpass in Italy, for example.
A vending machine for filling bottles with clean water for a fee
A vending machine for filling bottles with clean water for a fee
In the case of complex vending machines as in the above photos and that I have seen in Italy, operating on the same principle as milk machines (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:vending%3Dmilk). The description as I added seems appropriate.
I have examples of simple vending machines located on private property designed to dispense water, e.g. in a workplace, in an office, in a shop. These simple indoor vending machines cannot be mapped as a node (they certainly shouldn't).

Of course, there could be machines selling bottled water, but then you would rather give the tag vending=bottled_water? Cz ja (talk) 21:20, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
I withdrew my change. The description I added was probably too precise. Cz ja (talk) 22:01, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
