Some work for the OpenStreetMap community in 2024… 😀🚰

“Free drinking water soon available in Belgium's 100 largest train stations”: https://www.brusselstimes.com/belgium/810782/free-drinking-water-soon-available-in-belgiums-100-largest-train-stations-tbtb

So, how would you tag this ?

amenity=drinking_water
fountain=bottle_refill
access=yes
wheelchair=yes
fee=no
operator=NMBS/SNCB

@pietervdvn I see your point and I have to agree with your analysis. But, I think that adding a man_made=water_tap could be useful to differentiate it from a natural spring (even if we have a dedicated tag for those).

Yes, I looked into this as well, but there are apperently quite a few, contradictory ways to do this...
