Hello and welcome to OpenStreetMap! As you've no doubt noticed, edits that you make update the one shared map that everyone sees. That's why it's important that only valid edits are made to the map. If you want to experiment with the editors, you can do so over at http://api06.dev.openstreetmap.org (an exact copy of the main site apart from the map display). If you want to map an imaginery world, http://opengeofiction.net/ might be what you're looking for. However if you want to stick around and update the map with things that genuinely exist in this part of south London please do so!

All an "impossible" oneway entrance road normally means is that someone hasn't mapped the corresponding exit yet. It makes sense for a QA site to highlight this as something needing surveying, but you shouldn't just remove the data that caused the QA entry - it removes valid information from OSM and removes an indicator to QA site users that something needs surveying here.

For info, way/360842356 doesn't seem to be any sort of path at all - I suspect that Strava runners have just run across a field and jumped the gate at the top end. There's a definite path to the southeast (with stiles along it) which I walked along last night and will add to OSM when I get a chance. Castle Lane at the top end is signed as a restricted byway to the southeast so it'll be worth checking for access signage along there at some point (not that I expect there to be any).

Here it appears that you just mechanically changed the source tag without actually looking at what the previous mapper recorded (impossible from just Bing) or were trying to capture (you'd need to have actually looked at the tags you were replacing to have found that out).

I've fixed it for you.

It would be really, really useful if you could use meaningful changeset comments. "validation" doesn't explain what has been changed, why, or what the source of the change was.

23284953 over 10 years ago

@Mateusz thanks - it's entirely possible that the first space elevator will be built before this "road" is :)

Is there even the slighest chance of way/290450974/history ever actually been built, or is it just a complete flight of fancy?

32495687 over 10 years ago

Something seems to have gone a bit wrong with your edit to way/326061092 in here. You seem to be suggesting that there are three ways across the River Noe at the western end - a bridleway that crosses via a ford, the Pennine Way over a bridge and a new one that it's not clear how it crosses. Surely some mistake?

Hello and welcome to OpenStreetMap!

Just spotted way/99535924 ("John Deer") - I'm guessing that that might be misspelt?

There is a fairly well-used tag "landuse=brownfield", and I'm surprised that the iD editor doesn't find that when you search for "brownfield" (though you could go to "all tags" and enter it). I used that for a similar place here: way/358983985 (though actually "landuse=industrial; industrial=disaster" actually sounds like a good description to me - in British English at least "brownfield" has the connotation of "was once used for something but isn't any more, and may be used for something in the future". In the case of Grassmoor Lagoons that I linked to (and I suspect here) it's not really unused; there's ongoing industrial activity to clean it up.

Also, you've changed way/114913956/history from footway to bridleway but left the designation at "public_footpath". Whilst this combination isn't that uncommon, in the light of the other changes in here I do wonder if it is also in error.

I definitely remember way/342047927/history as being wide enough for four-wheeled traffic. Are you sure that that is now no longer the case?

32487204 over 10 years ago

Hi, I noticed this comment and reverted the changeset in changeset/32601215 . Is everything OK now? Is there anything else you want to do?

31735670 over 10 years ago

It looks like this removed some wikidata links from e.g. relation/153558. Just wondered if that was deliberate (because they were wrong) or accidental? See:

Thanks for fixing it - from memory I did mention it in an earlier changeset to whoever merged "Metropolitan" and "Metropolitan Line", but obviously it didn't get resolved then. I'm not a local and don't know which of the two is the more common usage.

32316451 over 10 years ago

Hello and welcome to OpenStreetMap! Thanks for updating the Screwfix up from Bulwell. Just one thing - the building way/220430545 currently still has a "shop=vacant" tag on it (presumably from when it was vacant). Unfortunately tags such as this don't show up very clearly in the online editor. Now that you've added node/3627536904 , I'd remove the "shop=vacant" tag from the building so that it looks like there's only one shop here, not two.

I think the name "Metropolitan;Metropolitan Line" came from a dodgy earlier merge, didn't it? I'd have thought that either was a valid name but not both?
