1. Please don't remove the address. It is still assigned.
2. Please don't use these project names directly. `name=` should be a proper name, that's similar to what will be used when it opens.

I meant it's better to avoid adding `crossing:island=` `=yes` or `=no` for divided roads entirely. Both aren't clear.

It's not "ideally". It's required.
Only Denmark has discussed it. You can't re-do it worldwide unless you discuss it.

!. As I warned you, please don't delete something when you haven't fully replaced them.
2. Please don't delete `landuse=cemetery` when you add `cemetery=grave` . They are different aspects.

2. You need to be especially careful with flyovers for `=street` . Many of them don't have gazetted street names. They won't have street name signs. The street name signs will appear for ground level only. I believe this is the case for Kowlooon City Roundabout. They only have `name=` for routing or common sense (which can still be doubted as there other possible names for them), or to improperly fix warnings. So they might only be included in the `=highway` .

"undiscussed" is referring to "undiscussed mechanical edits". It needs to be discussed beforehand, not afterwards.

Where else has it been discussed, and what's the "consensus"? No one here agreed with you.

Please avoid adding `crossing:island=no` for divided roads which has been split. The status of them is unclear.

I would like to mention using `route=highway` for this would be perfect for the purposes in HK. I believe there are actually no "street name" for it. Only the tunnel structure is named for itself, and for Tunnel Area according to the Road Tunnels (Government) Ordinance. Government records seem to have a mistake, or procedure problem.

I suggest to instead use `route=highway` for roads split into multiple sections for addressing purposes. This also matches how there are no "street" named Prince Edward Rd on its own.

`=street` should be used for all road names, especially in Hong Kong. There are in fact no "road names" in HK, only street names. These "Highway" use the same street name signs. They can have address assigned, ie 668 Tsing Sha Hwy for the Administration Building, and 7 Lion Rock Tunnel Rd.

Please avoid deleting directly. What that easily causes is you forgetting to add `crossing:island=yes` back.

`route=tram` is for the route of each actual tram service line. This needs to be either `type=network` , or `route=railway`

2. `loc_name:yue-Latn-jyutping=`

156208235 over 1 year ago

2. The only things you could add is `name:yue-Latn-jyutping=` for the romanization, and `loc_name:etymology=` . But they still aren't very needed. Especially the latter you can add on Wikidata. . name:etymology=*

156208235 over 1 year ago

1. Please use `loc_name=` , as this is not the most "common" , nor an officially recognized name. I don't know if you are from Hong Kong, but even people here may not know there's a specific legal meaning to streets and street names. `name=` should be reserved for that. It's the one signposted on street name signs, which is also the decisive factor for `name=` from the ground-truth principle in OSM.
2. Please don't do transliteration by translating literally. In OSM, you shouldn't attempt to synthesize names in other languages. It's perfect to have only `loc_name=電車路` + `loc_name:yue=電車路` for a nickname . No need to make up a `loc_name:en=` yourself.

156162145 over 1 year ago

(Not to mention this is a `=pedestrian` street)

156162145 over 1 year ago

Please don't use `route=foot` . That's for signposted walking routes. A `=footway` should still use `type=street` (not `type=route` + `route=street` ) when it's named on its own.

156087737 over 1 year ago

And changing to `=footway` here...

You are suspected of vandalism. False upload comments. Changing `tourism=hotel` + `building=hotel` to `=restaurant` , and adding unrelated `surface=grass` .
