Do not remove valid water tags. iD editor is lying to you about "deprecated" features.
Reverted the change.

Wiki has always been, is now, and will probably always stay a place for OPINION, not for authoritative stuff.
Brian (ZeLonewolf) or Mateusz are lacking basic experience but baking huge amounts of pages/changes of low quality on wiki which few people actually read. Number of wikians agreeing with them is around 10 which nowhere close to hundreds of thousands of mappers USING original water schema. Therefore updates should not be done not only in Lithuania, but in ANY country UNTIL you agree with local community.

Dar sutvarkiau sugadintą Balsių mokyklos žymėjimą.

Laba diena. Nereikia klausyti iD redaktoriaus pranešimų apie „pasenusius“ („deprecated“) žymėjimus. iD yra labai prastas redaktorius (gerasis yra JOSM). Atstačiau Neries žymėjimą.

I will review other landuses tomorrow morning after our automated QA reviews it and marks objects for human review.
We generally do not use ANY of new/duplicate water=* schema as original one is enough. We try to make it extremely simple:

Hello. Please do not listen to incorrect suggestions by iD about "deprecated" tags. Reverting incorrect changes.

dviračių ir pėsčiųjų takas yra highway=path+bicycle|foot=designated, nereikia keisti į highway=cycleway
https://lt.wikibooks.org/wiki/Atviro_%C5%BEem%C4%97lapio_vadovas/Redagavimas/Dvira%C4%8Diai

Well, we (Lithuanian community) have decided on how we map foot and bicycle ways looong time ago. Maps are already created according to that. It suits our needs well, therefore I see no point in changing the rules.
I look at "path" as something not only unpaved and narrow, but also which cannot get footway or cycleway specification because it is not exclusive for pedestrians or cyclists.

Šermukšnių gatvė jei jau oficialiai turi pavadinimą, tai negali būti service. Jei ten draudžiama įvažiuoti, tai reikia dėti access=no ar motor_vehicle=no, na ar private.

combined footway and cycleway is highway=path (with foot and bicycle designated). You've changed highway to incorrect ones :-(

Do these features actually exist? As it looks like you're adding features according to outdated ortophotos. That is you're adding things which have been deleted because of construction which is going on there now.

Lets call DWG and see what they think about doing semi-automated changes of tagging when it is clearly stated in wiki as well as stated multiple times on multiple mailing lists that this SHOULD NOT BE DONE. Changeset comment is not the place to discuss the tagging schemes, currently BOTH are valid and change is PROHIBITED (I reverted your bogus changes). If you're doing such changes on a wider scale then it is definitely a work of DWG to block you and revert all your damage. Should I contact DWG or you will stop wasting my time?

I'm saying that waterway=riverbank is a perfectly working schema and changing it to a duplicate one just for the sake of changing is stupid and pointless. Better do something useful.

Google, young soldier, you will find way too many discussions about this same topic. And don't try to find one single truth as there can not be one.

Don't you think it is quite stupid to INTRODUCE duplicate schema and then try to "SOLVE" the duplication? This whole initiative of new water schema was introduced by nerds and is only pushed by nerds, it was never supported by anybody doing serious stuff.

There are pretty large countries where OSM users also think that duplicate water schema is not only giving no advantage, but has disadvantage from cartographic and mapping perspectives. Bye.

Eventually you will grow up and learn not to point fingers when you enter the house. Or maybe not :-)

Data consumers do not want change for the sake of change. The new schema you're forcing does not have ANY advantages. You will not be able to force such changes on larger countries as they also oppose such unprofessional actions. We are here for way more than you have been here and probably will be more than you will be.

And thus you're doing damage to data consumers, who are using waterway=riverbank for 15 years or more. Ok, this has already wasted too much of my time. DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING in Lithuania. We want data QUALITY, not chaos created by clueless "unifiers".

No, you have changed a lot of objects which you have not fixed. And anyway, at the sime time you've decided that you, after spending less than a year in OSM, will force everybody else to use duplicate water tags instead of the ones we used for more than 15 years? Why?
