Tagging these as "amenity=parking" is somewhat unusual. It's not unique - https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1CFs shows some in Brussels - but it's pretty unique in the UK.
It's probably worth discussing the best tag for these on https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb or (internationally) at c.osm.org . -
Comment from ElectricDuck
This is what I could extrapolate from the wiki (entirely aware this seems to be in flux), as well as seeing how other areas have done it. Did come across a few that are just amenity=scooter_rental, but these PoIs seem *very* old.
I will admit though, 100+ extra "Parking" PoIs suddenly appearing around the city has even slightly thrown me at times looking at it on other clients (even OsmAnd doesn't understand the syntax and seem to think they're just private parking spots for private vehicles).
Will bring it up though in the mailing list; thank you for the advice.

There's actually a spectacular variety of tagging around the country so I've asked at https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2023-December/031009.html .

Comment from SomeoneElse
The feedback on the list has been that amenity=parking isn't the best option here - see e.g. https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2023-December/031011.html and https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2024-February/031140.html .
Other options used around the country include "escooter_rental" (the previous tag here), "scooter_parking", "small_electric_vehicle" and "kick-scooter_rental" (although I'm not convinced that last one is technically correct). -
Comment from ElectricDuck
While I'm still not a huge fan of amenity=escooter_rental, its clear this is the way forward in the UK. As such, I have corrected all the tags as of #149797372.
Forgive me taking forever too; I'd actually entirely forgotten about this discussion!

Thanks - I think this does make more sense.
