Where a record comes from
Imported baselineA small disc. Somebody put this on a public map and nobody here has taken the record on. The panel names the source.
Kept by somebody elseA dashed border. A specialist source for this kind of place and this region keeps this record. The panel names them and links to them.
Our catalogueA solid paper border. This community keeps the record: a rider added it, or riders confirmed it and took it on.
?Nobody has stood hereA "?" badge, on any of the three icons above. No dated survey and no rider confirmation. If you ride past, check it.
What a place is, within its category
Drinking tapA blue drop. OSM maps it as drinking water and nothing says otherwise. Confirm on the spot.
Not for drinkingA drop with a red bar across it. Tagged not drinkable, or a rider said so.
Potability not knownAn unfilled drop. Either nobody has said whether you can drink here, or somebody looked and could not tell. Treat it as unknown.

What is happening to a record
Going staleAn orange ring replaces the paper border. Nobody has confirmed this in 6 months, so the map is asking "still there?"
Long unconfirmedA thick red border replaces the paper border. Nobody has confirmed this in 12 months: check it before you count on it.
!Out of orderA red "!" badge at the top left, independent of the pin colour and tier. A rider reported it out of order or closed.
Not always reachableA clock badge at the top left for places that are not always available: daytime only, behind a gate, or a seasonal tap in the months it is shut. A badge, not a colour, so the pin keeps its category.
24Too many to drawA count bubble in the category colour. Zoom in and it breaks apart.
Look hereA pulsing orange ring shows where a hovered list result or town sits. The same pulse wraps a pin revealed by search when your view mode hides it.
Climbs
Climb line, uphillPurple bands by steepness, matching the climb profile bars: light below 5%, darkest at 16% and up.
Climb line, downhillThe same bands in blue for descending stretches.
SummitSummit flagWhere the climb ends. The pin sits at the foot.
12%Steepest pitch, measuredThe steepest sustained 250 m the model can see.
14%Steepest point, rider-markedWhere a rider says the wall actually is. A different colour and glyph from the measured one on purpose.
