"Respectfully".

What are these tags?

Welcome to OSM.
I've reverting your changeset. The railway=station node is distinct from entrance tags, of which there may be many, scattered well away from the actual station, especially in London. Station nodes for 2 platform, two track station the node should be placed between the tracks & near to the middle of the platforms.

Is there a building with barriers & ticket office etc?:
building=train_station

The wall is still there:

There are already the correct number of railway stations tags. This is train station building.
What is ref:cranmore?

I think it's better.
highway=bridleway is used where there's no signs of motor traffic.

Those two tracks are designated as 'Byways' which OSM tags as designation=byway_open_to_all_traffic
From Wiltshire Council:
{ "type": "Feature", "properties": { "PARISH": "HILP", "TYPE": "1", "REF": "HILP21", "PATHNO": "21", "LENGTH": 841.0, "LYR_NAME": "Byway" },},

Please revert.

These are tracks designated as byways.

There are already the correct number of railway stations tags.
The original tag is correct.

That's a big roundabout

I started a discussion on Talk:gb.
Your previous changesets have been reverted by others.

As I wrote in that page's discussion section:
"This behaviour needs to be stopped. If the official name is 'St', to represent 'saint', as listed in street gazetteers or signage, then that is how it should be in the name tag (ground truth as it's known in OSM). If computer programmers (not computers) can't write code to distinguish abbreviations then they probably shouldn't be contributing to OSM."

There's no need for bicycle=no as highway=footway auto negates bicycles

way/234778671
This path stopped at the admin boundary as the prow_ref only applies to that administration. You need to add a separate way the abuts it on the other side of the boundary.

On what grounds have you made these amendments?

public transport tags shouldn't be included on tourist railways.

'public transport' is a *separate* tagging schema from railway=*
schema. They're added by users sue to an inept decision by the developers of the iD editor.

My request was for you to clarify why you think that svg image you posted is correct in deciding what a station is based on points/switches that are separate from the actual station.

From railway=station

"In Britain, after a discussion, railway=halt has been removed. All are now railway=station. It was felt the definition of halt was too ambiguous & subjective for OSM. Additional, objective, sub-tags are being added to stations such as request_stop=*, usage=*, platforms=* etc."

Please explain why you believe track points, or lack thereof, often hundreds of metres from a railway station, defines a railway station.

Stop editing entities you've no comprehension of.

This isn't Bath Sushi.

There is already a museum. Please don't duplicate. OSMand should show existing objects.

This street isn't signed as 'Saint.'
