|-
|<pre>watsan:bathroom=yes</pre>
|<pre>amenity=toilets</pre>
| This is an actual bath ... these are often offered as public services in Kibera, often with a toilet as well. amenity=toilet is not entirely correct
|-
|<pre>watsan:dumping_site=yes</pre>
|<pre>amenity=waste_disposal</pre>
| This is an waste disposal site, without proper formal structure.
|-
|<pre>watsan:pee_point=yes</pre>
|<pre>amenity=toilets</pre>
| This is not a formal toilet, but a place very commonly used for peeing
|-
|<pre>watsan:recycling=yes</pre>
|<pre>amenity=recycling</pre>
|
|-
|<pre>watsan:toilet_private=yes</pre>
|<pre>amenity=toilets</pre>
| What about using <tt>access=private</tt> or relying on <tt>operator:type=private</tt> rather than splitting these into toilet_private/toilet_public? ''yes, that change makes sense''
|-
|<pre>watsan:toilet_public=yes</pre>
|<pre>amenity=toilets</pre>
|
|-
|<pre>watsan:urban_agriculture=yes</pre>
|<pre>leisure=garden</pre>
| yes
|-
|<pre>watsan:water_private=yes</pre>
|<pre>amenity=drinking_water
man_made=water_tower
landuse=reservoir
natural=water</pre>
|<tt>amenity=drinking_water</tt> assumes water is drinkable--is this valid?
<tt>landuse=reservoir</tt> implies a large, polygonal reservoir, which seems unlikely

<tt>natural=water</tt> implies a spring or lake, which seems unlikely
|-
|<pre>watsan:water_public=yes</pre>
|<pre>amenity=drinking_water</pre>
|Around half of the features with this tag also include <tt>operator:type=private</tt>. ''it means the water is publicly accessible, but for sale by a private operator''

=== Changes ===

* Add amenity tags:
** <tt>amenity=toilets</tt> to features with
*** <tt>watsan:bathroom=yes</tt>
*** <tt>watsan:pee_point=yes</tt>
*** <tt>watsan:toilet_private=yes</tt>
*** <tt>watsan:toilet_public=yes</tt>
** <tt>amenity=waste_disposal</tt> to features with
*** <tt>watsan:dumping_site=yes</tt>

* Add <tt>operator:type=private</tt> to features with no <tt>operator:type=*</tt> tagged
** <tt>watsan:toilet_private</tt>
** <tt>watsan:water_private</tt>

* Add <tt>man_made=windmill</tt> where appropriate

* Remove <tt>watsan:toilet_public=no</tt> from features tagged <tt>watsan:toilet_private=yes</tt> and vice versa.

* Remove watsan features from ways

* Split features with multiple <tt>watsan:*=yes</tt> tags
** Except features with <tt>watsan:toilet_.*=yes</tt> and <tt>watsan:bathroom=yes</tt>

* Names
** Fixed obvious typos
** Standardize generic ones:
*** "Dumping site"
*** "Private toilets"
*** "Public toilets"
*** "Water point"
*** "Water tank"
*** "Water tap"

=== Notes ===
Is there a difference between a "water point", "water tank", and "water tap"? If so, should we tag these differently? Right now the only consistent difference seems to be in name.

-- A water tank is a reservoir, usually a large above ground container; and a water tap is a spigot connected to a line. Water point, could be either.

A few nodes with <tt>watsan:other=yes</tt> mention being start/end points of terraces. Not sure what to do with these, if anything.
