Campgrounds: missing attributes

Hi, like the passability question its risky to tag to much changable values. It consumes much space and at the end it isnt reliable. The fee will change at least every year. Im from Europe and we do have several paper guides with descriptions of campingsites all over, ranging from 0 to 5 stars. I would, practical, go for just a tag on the map with a real time and internet adress or try to convince the owner of the camp site to tag along with OSM. Hell keep the info correct. Greetz keep tagging

You can use any tags you like - you don't need to be restricted by what the wiki currently says, although of course it makes sense to co-operate with everyone else, in order that one tag is not used for two different things.

You can also use taginfo to see what combinations are used with tourism=camp_site, although as you'll see from that link people aren't tagging much else beyond name and address. There's also a mailing list about tagging - it might be helpful to discuss things there.

Generally it helps to be specific, and remember that this is a worldwide database. What might be "primitive" in one location may not be in another. Also, look at what tags are used for other features - fee, for example is already in use. Finally try and use English rather than American for tags where there's an equivalent - I'm English and have no idea what "RV=*" would mean, but I do know the difference between a camp site and a caravan site. There's probably also a tag in use somewhere describing electrical hookups - asking on the tagging list would be a good way to discuss.

Also maybe have a read of this (a personal page, but excellent advice).
