Hi, I met a note to add a cliff diving spot into the DB, as far I know there aren't any attribut about this and second is it really a clever idea to add this kind of "venue"? asked 06 Nov '20, 15:45  Fabe56 edited 06 Nov '20, 17:15 |

As a rule the "sport" tag is just an attribute of an existing object and does not indicate an object itself, with other words a node with just a sport tag, is not really correct.
But there is at least one notable exception, to this sport=scuba_diving which is widely used to indicate diving sport. So a sport=cliff_diving is probably in order here too. However as a rule I would only add this in locations where there are actual facilities enabling or documenting the use, for example a platform or a sign posted location.
@SimonPoole I'm aware of this issue. There doesn't seem to be a good solution for individual spots not directly on a feature. I have thought about suggesting place=locality for named and standalone ones, however that sounds too significant. As you may know, leisure=fishing isn't really the best tag either.
I have used informal=yes where there are only folk knowledge, and sport equipment left or frequent usage, to be safe and sure.
As said, there is already an exception, cliff_diving simply needs to get the same treatment (scuba diving spots are a bit more common though :-)).
