Most places are only tagged as cities if they have over 100,000 people. Regional importance is factored in, so you might convince me to consider this a town, but as Soda Springs is an hour's drive from Pocatello, which has more than 10 times the population, there is no comparison.

place=city does not mean "incorporated municipality legally called a city". You wouldn't call Warm River with its three people a city just because it's legally a city, would you?

Soda Springs does not have a commercial airport, which is what really matters. Try asking other people on OpenStreetMap in the OSMUS Slack server what they think. You'll find little agreement with a city classification. https://osmus-slack.herokuapp.com/

That's a cool tool. I'll add it to my repertoire. Also, whoops!

I told you why I changed it back, and you proceeded to lie about me in a changeset comment. Don't start an edit war.

Also phone number and website are wrong, there should be no parenthesis and the protocol needs to be specified (URL needs to start with http:// or https://)

Driveways need to connect to the road, not just the sidewalk.

I think JOSM touched a bunch of nodes without actually modifying them. They were filtered from view so there's no way I could've done anything to them.

Boise addresses are a lot harder to conflate than those of other cities because the nodes are placed by the street rather than the center of the parcel. The low density and random street suffixes aren't helping either.

If you do not know the name, you should just leave it blank. Dentist called "Dentist" is wrong and useless.

Not sure "unclassified" is the right type of road. Service made more sense to me.

Welcome back to OSM! You know, you inspired me to map. I saw the buildings you drew in Downtown Boise when playing Pokémon Go, and it got me to add some of my own. Now here we are three-and-a-half years later, with almost all the buildings mapped in Ada County. Really, thank you so much.

It's a little unclear to me what "manually reviewed" means, but I would guess "all buildings are checked". Just looking at this area (not specifically this changeset, just your edits), that wouldn't include way/1087505016, way/1087508922, way/1087506032, way/1087505949, way/1087506157, way/1087509198, way/1087509208, way/1087508898, way/1087508971, way/1087508647, way/1087508576, way/1087508983, way/1087509166, way/1087506208, way/1087505966, way/1087505972, way/1087506158, way/1087505997, way/1087506046, way/1087506146, way/1087509196, way/1087506094, way/1087504759, way/1087505502, way/1087505407, way/1087505282, way/1087505463, and way/1087505175. I could go on, but I've made my point. That's a concerningly high error rate. Higher than another editor whose edits were outright reverted.

There is no blanket approval to add Bing buildings unless they are all manually reviewed. Low quality Bing building imports have been reverted in the past. Are you sure you are manually reviewing these?

125111005 over 3 years ago

Is this an import? If so, where is it documented?

126156477 over 3 years ago

Also, please square your buildings after drawing by selecting them and pressing Q.

125843469 over 3 years ago

I see you've done this elsewhere. Please, immediately restore all names.

125843469 over 3 years ago

Road names are not supposed to be abbreviated, please restore them.

126108634 over 3 years ago

Split the way by creating a node where the speed limit changes (if one doesn't exist), selecting it, then pressing X. You can add the speed limit tag to that.

It's okay to tag the speed limit sign separately, if you want. The speed limit shows up either way.

The correct thing to do is add the business tags to the address node. If the business goes under, you can just remove the business tags and leave the address. Hope this helps.

125319516 over 3 years ago

Names should not be used as descriptions. Please remove "Toilets" as name

125988774 over 3 years ago

Again, you have duplicated address data. You also haven't responded to my changeset comments. Please do so.
