How to map a country....that doesn't exists?

Mhh but it's a nation even if virtual it consist of citizens. But I guess something like a simple graph would be more useful to find their virtual places :)

What if the OpenStreetMap.org mapview had it's own feedback button?

Well this whole usability discussion is quite long and AFAIK the result was that they are willing to adapt any platform that is better and running well. So you should ask your local chapter on adding this feature to your local osm page, first.

osm2postgresql :o)

Thanks Henri!
I added a stub on the wiki

local OSM meetups - that's it

Yes but cause I thought in german user dimensions I expected some more ;) But let it might be that this might be a first step to bring this idea to more mappers

We need Y O U for for OSMs wiki! - OR - Is our wiki healthy?

Well this allows others (e.g. wikiteam or other "cleaners") to find pages that need attention. To externals it allows to see that the informations might not be as accurate and that it's necessary to validate them (e.g. post on forums). To the users adding such hints it's the most easiest way on working on the wiki and to see that it's not that complicated :) This might be a point to do the cleanup work by yourself instead of waiting for others.

Yes this is probably the most important usecase. On the other hand this is the current situation. I hope that there will be a better chance if the team approved that it can deal with a neutral refactoring of the tagging related pages cause it shows that it worked on other things (development, software, gps,...). But his is just an idea. If you have a better one feel free to join the discussion. :)

Thinking of Moving

Listen SriShunyata, we have a lot of spam that mostly consist of non OSM topics and of course urls. This not against you but we have people that try it anyway.

So come on people, this was obviously a misunderstanding :)

Well I tried to do improvements but all reactions stoped me and so I spend my time on things I can change and where people benefit more.

The Template was my idea after some edit wars. Another user created the blue ribbon campain. All in all I think Jochens taginfo service is the right thing to put the discussion/documention on a serious criteria again

You are right, this is a reason, why the wikiteam recommends not to work on the tagging related pages cause it's a minefield.

WIKI - Bereich von OSM down?

Gibt es irgendwo eigentlich eine Seite in der über die Gründe für die Downzeiten informaiert wird?

We need Y O U for for OSMs wiki! - OR - Is our wiki healthy?

Well what you say is right. Nevertheless I think everybody should care about documentation cause this is essential to attract newbies.

What would happen, say 5 of the most editors on the wiki would abandon the project? So if this task is on more shoulders it's better for OSM as a whole.

Keeping things clean is not a bad task, it shows you the real variety of OSM and brings up a lot of lost gems :)

International Mileage Charts

So whats the special thing? Can I calculate the distances between cities on that charts? (sorry I don't know the term Mileage chart)

Fernweh oder Überdruss an der deutschen Pingeligkeit?

Hehe ja das scheint nicht wenigen Leuten so zu gehen, das ist mir jedenfalls bei meinen Recherchen zu den lokalen Gruppen aufgefallen. Irgendwie gibt es immer einen lokalen deutschen Mapper vor Ort ;)

Ich selbst find es immer ein wenig schwierig in Gegenden, wo man nicht selbst war zu mappen. Klar ist das immer besser als wenn nix da ist aber hmmm....

Naja ich mache trotzdem hier in M-V weiter, ist ja quasi Kasachstan :D

Speed limits

Right, personaly I map everything I see in Videomapping but normaly this is to much.

ArcBruTile updated ! :o)

Thanks for the hint,

added it at

meine ersten Einträge

Auch von mir ein herzlich willkommen und schön dass du mitmachst :)

Genau, es gibt schon länger amenity=doctors der allerdings keine Spezialisierungen hat

Es gab vor einiger Zeit einen Vorschlag, der auch angenommen wurde
osm.wiki/Proposed_features/Healthcare
Dieser wird allerdings noch nirgends angezeigt und auch nur JOSM hat jetzt ein paar Vorlagen bekommen, allerdings gleich vom Nachfolger
osm.wiki/Proposed_features/Healthcare_2.0

Du kannst dich also richtig austoben im Geundheitsbereich ;)

OSM

Auch vn mir ein herzliches Willkommen.

Facharbeit sagst du? Vielleicht kannst du hier ja was nützliches finden
osm.wiki/Research
Du kannste deine Arbeit auch gerne eintragen ;)

Meine Empfehlung ist Kontakt zu den lokalen Leuten vor Ort aufzunehmen. Da schauste am besten mal hier www.openstreetmap.de
