iD tagging schema is a recording of various information about OpenStreetMap tagging. It is done in format allowing it to be both machine-readable and human-readable.
There are various ways how it can be improved, some relatively complex, some very easy.
We have list of things that should be fairly easy to implement
If anyone is interested in contributing - it could be a good start and I can promise quick review, if they would be implemented by someone.
This changes will be quite easy to write, it is not a programming - it is rather editing a relatively simple config file. But they still need to be tested, which actually takes most of the time. And if editing config file is not a very scary task and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON#Syntax is not terrifying, then you have a good chance to be able to do it.
Review afterwards should be quick like for another group of simple tasks
If you would be interested in helping with iD tagging schema, and you have any amount of technical ability… But this supposedly simple tasks are not obvious, feel free to ask here for help and I can guide you to your first PR.
Even if you never did anything with git/github etc, this could be a good start. And maybe you would later implement a more complex task
