If you encounter a shelter structure like those, what do you select for the "What Is It" Section.
The closest thing is "Gazebo" but it's not exactly a Gazebo.
There's also "Picnic Area" and "Rest Stop" though those are usually associated with low-quality Nominations.

Structure > Shade
😎
The other possible category is "Structure > Shade"
I tend to use "picnic area" for those having multiple picnic tables
I use "Shade" for structures with no picnic tables or one picnic table
I use "Gazebo" for gazebos
What about lean-to, goahti, and wilderness huts?
These don't exist outside of Nordic countries (as far as I know), so I'm not surprised that there's no category for them. But it's a pain to try to figure out how to categorize them, especially now that you sometimes have to select a category.
"Structure > Lodge" immediately comes to mind, or "Shade" if those are still considered areas to congregate in the shade.
Find something that "makes sense" and don't worry if it isn't an exact match.
These are basically grill huts. They're mainly used for warming up around a firepit/stove in winter, and grilling food (sausages, etc) while on wilderness trips. So neither of those are great fits, unless lodge has broader meaning than I think it does. But I guess I'll go with that from now on, it's still a better match than "Shade" since these are almost universally located in already shady areas such as forests.
