Good question.

footway=separate can be removed here

likely I intended to add cycleway=separate and got confused

It is a blatant import, I think that it is time to start reverting

OK, I will not do anything for at least one week

For other concerns and bonus complexity note:

- creative work is protected by default, lack of anything indicating copyright status does not mean that it is not copyrighted (Since March 1, 1989, no copyright notice has been required in USA for copyright to apply)
- in USA facts and collections of facts are not protected unless creative (database right and sweat of brow legal doctrines are not present ), so it may or may not be allowed
- copying external data into OSM database requires following osm.wiki/Import/Guidelines

"University layouts are in public domain to help people understand the locations quick and clear"

Also https://www.wcu.edu/WebFiles/CampusMap2016.pdf ? That comes from https://www.acucamps.com/ with "All Rights Reserved" in the footer?

Can you point me to some place where it was released under open license?

Note that "public domain" does not mean "useful for all" or "should be openly licensed".

It is a legal term, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_domain

Sadly, often data that should be openly licensed is not - that is why OSM was created in the first place.

In rare cases it is OK to import into OSM datasets from external sources, but only when licensing is 100% fine - OSM is not a project to explore gray areas of copyright and related laws.

Before support will be implemented some use must be present.

So if someone needs it then they need to start using it, waiting for support for not used tagging scheme is unlikely to suceed.

If you participate in some organized editing - can you forward this question to whoever organized it?

Looking at http://resultmaps.neis-one.org/osm-discussion-comments?uid=478872 they are in habit of ignoring comments and importing invalid data - see say changeset/71770041

Where is the import documentation for that edit?

108586869 over 4 years ago

Also, what is the actual source?

And where is the import documentation?

Have you surveyed both locations?

> but OSM doesn't seem to have a standardized way to record turn *permissions* as opposed to turn *restrictions*

Note - osm.wiki/Any_tags_you_like if you need it and it is mappable feel free to simply map it
