Some of the edits did also introduce strange tags on highways, for example capacity=*. The edits seem to infringe the automated edits code of conduct also: osm.wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct

Hello comandant3, it seems that you're not familiar with editing administrative boundaries as you've damaged about 100 of them so please don't edit them as this causes work for others who have to fix the boundaries.

Please do respect the OSMF guidelines regarding disputed territories: http://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/d/d8/DisputedTerritoriesInformation.pdf
Politcal motiviated edits aren't welcome in OSM. We map what's on the ground.

I've reverted your edits regarding administrative boundaries as some where clearly politically motivated (for example the deletion of the boundary of Nagorno-Karabakh) and other edits where technically incorrect (unclosed Multipolygon).

Regards, 4rch

Seems like an infringement of the Import Guidelines (*)
Data contradicts existing boundaries (wrong projection?), no announcement on the import mailinglist, unclear copyright situation, etc.

It’s fine for me if the ISO 3166 key is upper case and it would be fine for me if the key is lower case. I don’t care. The only thing I’m interested in is to use keys consistently. If I’d stumble upon a ISO key which isn’t consistently used I’ll correct this key according to the majority of the ISO keys. Thanks.

You’re saying that upper case is wrong but you haven’t provided any valuable source yet. You’ve just pointed to one entry from a user who has already made other dubious changes in the Wiki in the past. Only 15% of the ISO 3166-2 keys are in low-case! 15% vs. 85% - seems pretty clear who is right. Nevertheless, even if you’re right and that the key was documented in the past – tagging behaviour can change and this would be a very clear case then that the tagging has changed for ISO keys.

I’d propose to properly document the ISO3166-2=* key in the Wiki. If you insist, I can change the ISO 3166-2 keys in Uruguay back to low-letter.

Sorry, wrong link: osm.wiki/w/index.php?title=Country_code&diff=1167635&oldid=682017

Hello, this documentation was written in May 2015 by "Xxzme": osm.wiki/Special:BlockList?wpTarget=Xxzme

This user got banned from the wiki till August because of his controversial edits.

Regarding "change all tags into lower case": the majority of the ISO-tags (5 vs. 1) is in upper case. So it's pretty clear that upper case is right. Approved by the majority of the mappers.

Hello muralito, there was about 2700 x ISO3166-2 and 500 x iso3166-2 in the database before I've changed some tags.

For ISO3166-1 it's even clearer: 330 times upper case, zero times lower case.

I can see no reason why I should change some tags back. It makes no sense to have inconsistent tags in our database.

"Die Redewendung „Don't tag for the renderer“ (Attributiere nicht für den Renderer!) hat bei OSM eine lange Geschichte und bedeutet: Nicht absichtlich falsche Attribute vergeben, nur weil diese zur gewünschten Darstellung führen. Dies ist eine der wichtigsten Regeln bei OSM."

I pressume that he pressed "s" (straighten) in the iD-editor. I've reverted the changeset.

Hello ViriatoLusitano,

See also my comment here: changeset/31909873

it’s hard to compare different disputed areas as there are always different parameters.

Regarding Arunachal Pradesh: Indie and China do not overlap in this area as it’s clear who actually controls the area.
Regarding Abyei: Yes, South Sudan and Sudan do overlap in this area because it is/was? unclear who controls the area and there are/were? ongoing fights since/in? 2011. This case should be revised and the overlap between both countries should be dissolved as soon as it is clear who controls the area.

I’d like to point to the OSMF guidelines (chapter "borders and boundaries"): http://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/d/d8/DisputedTerritoriesInformation.pdf

For Olivença it is clear that Spain has the physical control over this area so there shouldn’t be any overlap between both countries as this wouldn't reflect the reality on the ground.

Hello ViriatoLusitano_import,

please do respect the OSMF guidelines on disputed boundaries: http://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/d/d8/DisputedTerritoriesInformation.pdf

The changes you've made do not comply with the situation on the ground. I'll revert your changes.

If you have the demand to talk we can have a discussion at http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewforum.php?id=10 or here.
Thanks.

Regards, Arch

Ich deute die Antwort von FahRadler an mich so, dass er weder die Nutzungsbedingungen des Schutzgebietskataster des Saarlandes eingehalten hat, noch sich an die Import Guidelines gehalten hat. osm.wiki/Import/Guidelines

Darum werde ich im Laufe des Tages die Daten wieder entfernen.

Hallo gepeix, was willst du mit dem Changesetkommentar "Volagen neu" aussagen? "Ein guter Änderungssatz-Kommentar sollte kurz und angemessen eine Bearbeitung beschreiben.": osm.wiki/DE:Good_changeset_comments#Warum_sollte_ich_.C3.84nderungssatz-Kommentare_nutzen.3F

Hallo, offenbar hast du mehrere Naturschutzgebiete in OpenStreetMap importiert. Wo is die Dokumentation über diesen Import im Wiki dazu? Wo kann ich die Erlaubnis einsehen, dass Daten des Schutzgebietskataster des Saarlandes in OpenStreetMap hochgeladen werden dürfen?

Gruß Arch

Is "Zuckerschiff" the name of the wreck? Are minefields in Morocco called "Minenfeld"?

Hello shravan91,
