Comment from BCNorwich
Hello and Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
The fact that swimming_pool does not show as blue on the cycle map has nothing to do with the OSM database but rather the specific way the cycle map is rendered. We are requested to map what is on the ground not map to show up certain coulers for features. (The powers that be could show the blue rendering.)
However there is nothing wrong with adding more tags that do fully describe features. The feature is a natural pond rather than a pool which is usually constructed. So
leisure=swimming
natural=water
sport=swimming
water=pond
all describe the feature well and thus should render blue on the cycle map.
It would not have been appropriate to change a leisure=swimming pool tag to a water=pond on a constructed swimming pool.
Regards Bernard
