How do you tag a gully left by what, according to the topo maps, up until a few years ago used to be a creek? The official name of the feature is Hicks Canyon Wash. It is tree-lined, has a few foot bridges, is impassable to vehicular traffic and serves as a natural boundary of an area of the city. In other words, it's a pretty significant local feature, but to tag it a stream would be a misnomer. misnomer. I know there is an intermittent=yes tag and I have, indeed, seen puddles at the bottom of the gully after major storms, but I'm not sure if renderers or anyone else would pay attention. Right now, it shows as a blue line on Mapnik map (tagged waterway=stream, intermittent=yes), but on Google Map, if that's any kind of reference, it's missing, while other streams in the area are shown - even tiny ones, as long as they are "wet". "wet". I tend to agree with Google that it should not be blue, and I also know that we don't tag for the renderer. So, what's the answer? I guess I could just delete it, but I was planning on using it in a boundary relation, because that would be a pretty accurate representation of the physical world, and that's what OSM is all about. Right?
