138964929 over 2 years ago

Hello.
What is the source of these changes?

CSX is already in the operator tag, why add it to the name?

Also, "Medium" is an invalid tag value. All tag values in OSM(other than names) must be lower case.

Shouldn't this be tunnel=building_passage instead of layer=-1?

Hello.
Please note that the usual nyc sidewalks should be tagged as just "surface=concrete". "concrete:plates" value is intended for situations such as bridges or other paths were the places were pre-cast off-site and installed as a whole at a location. With the nyc sidewalks it's usually poured in-place.

You could put disused: prefix in front of amenity= and optionally delete other biz-specific tags.

If you haven't already, check out app called EveryDoor. It's on both, Android and iOS. It's designed specifically for editing POIs features with easy presents for a lot of things and it has a single button way to mark biz as closed.
You can't create ways with it like with Vespucci, but for POIs it's a lot less clunky. 🙂

Hello.
Rather than completely deleting this feature, it's much better to use lifecycle prefixes as documented in osm.wiki/Lifecycle_prefix.
Or at the very least delete biz-specific tags and leave just address info.
Doing that preserves that object's history if at some point in the future there's ever a need to refer to that. Plus it preserves that address being searchable.

Hello.
Some suggestions: when you are mapping swimming pools or other features that are obviously rectangular or round, you can manually draw their approximation and then right-click on that feature and select "Square" or "Circularize" to make them have right angles or be a proper circle.
Doing that makes your mapping look neater and those features closer to their real world shapes. 👍

Hello again.
When mapping features please pay attention to make sure that they don't cross over each where they are not supposed to. For example here you mapped some grassy area crossing over an apartment building.

Also when tagging paths, please try to select the appropriate types. Sidewalks go parallel to the road, and Foot Paths go within the block or elsewhere.

138780036 over 2 years ago

Hello.
You added a bench (node/11057333455) with tag "fixme=" writing that the bench is shaky.
This tag intended for other mappers to alert that that this features needs more attention, for situations where a feature is too complicated for you to map, or you can't figure out what it is from the available imagery, or there's something else wrong with it.

This tag is not intended for workers of this development or the city to know to fix this bench. :)

Hello.
You also gave names to a bunch of features that probably don't need to be named, such as way/1190883860 you named "Ramp". And a bunch of grassy areas you named "Green Space". Unless those are actually real names of those features, it's perfectly fine to leave them nameless.

As a matter of fact, it looks like this feature was already mapped a month ago, 1 block north of where you put this at way/1180497240.
I think your feature should be deleted since that goes against osm.wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element guideline.

Perhaps it's more appropriate to tag it as a fountain rather than a waterfall, since one is just a water pump and the other is natural feature?

Hello.
I don't know if you can, but you can verify bus routes on https://bustime.mta.info/

Additionally, kimberly hotel is already mapped as the whole building(not just building part), and as I mentioned above, mapping the same feature twice goes against osm.wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element

Hello.
Please note that in this edit you damaged part of the building shape.
Additionally, it looks like you added tags of a bar and restaurant into this building feature. This is absolutely wrong way to add such features.
Each of these bars and restaurants MUST be added as separate nodes with their own independent tags.
Moreover, Empire Steakhouse restaurant IS already mapped as a node. The fact that you mapped it as tags on the building goes against osm.wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element guideline.

Hello.
When mapping rectangular features, such as these courts or buildings, you can press Q or right click on that feature and select "Make Square" to make it have right angles. That makes your mapping look neater and more accurate to the real world feature. 👍

Hello.
You keep creating notes written from the first person. However, somebody looking at these features at some point in the future will have no idea who "I" is.
While what you did is not outright wrong, it's creates confusion and ambiguity. It's much better to write such notes in a neutral tone and with consideration that somebody would be reading this 2, 3, 5, or even 10 years later.

138617381 over 2 years ago

Hello.
This edit will be reverted in full since it damaged part of the mapped building.
If you want to add your business, please add it as a node.
Additionally, as explicitly documented in description=*#No_advertising, the description should only include neutral and factual information about the object, not advertisements or promotions.

Hello.
In the future please split your changes grouped by each location. That makes it much easier to review them.

But looking at access=* "Introductory examples" section seems to describe situations that match cemeteries pretty closely... At least when it comes to publicly accessible cemeteries like Greenwood, Woodlawn, Washington, Montefiore.

If bikes are not allowed that doesn't mean other types of access are "private".
