Hi I m tagging an historic rebuild trench. That gives me 2 questions. Since there using wood to prevent it from caving in, I would add that too, besides soil, dirt or earth. What to do add the key and value material - soil, wood or ad both to the value together ? Secondly a way wont except the tag historic monument, it acts like it should be a single node. How to solve it ? Greetz btw its here http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.078687&lon=5.464483&zoom=18&layers=M |

The wiki leads to barrier=ditch and taginfo leads to military=trench (I guess applying both tags is fine) and after asking a hundred of questions you should already be capable of using these two tools yourself. If your trench is made of wood you can use the material key and add material=wood. Tag the surface with the most frequent material (probably ground in your case). I can't understand your issue with the monument tag. If your editor doesn't have a monument preset for a way then just add the tag manually using the advanced tab. Yet, the monument tag is for objects built to remember and show respect to a person or group of people. Your trench wasn't built to show respect to anyone but as a fortification. Therefore this tag seems wrong. Maybe you are searching for a tag like tourism=attraction. You can still add historic=yes of course. Hi Scai, I didn’t know there was a limit, but thanks for counting anyway. I just asked it to avoid wrong tags, since I tend to be creative and already combined barrier – trench. I tried to add the monument tag but the monument tag is not congruent with a way. I guess it needs a single node and the correct description. Tourism crossed my mind, since they use the trench for reenacting as well. I stumbled over the use of the materials, ground and wood they used to build it. Greetz

Don't be too creative if there are already commonly used tags. To find commonly used tags use the wiki and taginfo. Only if both don't return a suitable tag and the forum and mailing lists also don't help then invent your own.

Perhaps a picture might help people to understand what it is you're describing here?
