Hello,
I suspect that way/1358422651 needs adding the the townlands that its neighbour up the road is part of - relation/4632073#map=16/52.96480/-7.36730 now has a gap in it.
Best Regards,
Andy

Hello,
I think that there might be a bit of a problem with some of the relations here - way/137279112 overlaps with way/375867813 now, which means that relations such as relation/11047400 have overlaps and have fallen out of rendering databases.
The solution might just be as simple as deleting way/375867813 and checking that all relations that were in it are OK afterwards (perhaps by using the JOSM editor's validator).
Best Regards,
Andy

Apparently a "phased reopening" of the bus station is underway (see https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn5w2qqk526o - started early Jan, to complete in April).
I'm guessing based on that that a certain amount of development work is still incomplete - hopefully someone passing through one of the stations (or someone local) can nip out and have a look.

When I was at the Jacob's Well pub 6 months ago, the whole area between the Interchange station and there was a building site.
I'm guessing the bus station has reopened now, but it hadn't ~4 months ago.
It'll need someone on site to do it properly, I think.

What was the "incorrect mapping" that you reverted here?
Without knowing that it's impossible to know what the problem was before.

@Spaghetti Monster:
Just for info, Hall Ings was a pedestrian route round a building site the last time I was there (a few months ago),
I would assume that any imagery bears no relation to current layout. It really needs input from people on the ground.

Thanks - no, that spur's long gone now, I think.

Hello,
There's an issue with relation/5174294 - the JOSM validator and OSM Inspector https://tools.geofabrik.de/osmi/?view=areas&lon=-6.59579&lat=31.53086&zoom=9&baselayer=Geofabrik%20Standard&overlays=ring_not_closed%2Ctouching_rings%2Crole_should_be_inner%2Crole_should_be_outer%2Cinner_with_same_tags%2Cways think that the role of way/195111844 and way/195111845 should be Inner here rather than Outer. I've no idea if it's related to these changes - just something I spotted by looking at OSM Inspector in the area for that problem.
Best Regards,
Andy

Thanks - it does make sense to tidy very small numbers of these where they mean the same thing, but the challenge with things like osteopaths is that it's a field that overlaps between regular and "alternative" medicine. The wikipedia article has a bit of background on it - that's basically written to describe it as quackery but then goes on to say that in the USA there are regular medical degrees specialising in it, and those are recognised as such by many other countries.
On maps I create I show "normal" medicine with a pink "health" icon and "alternative" medicine as regular shops.
One of the two you changed recently looked like a regular sports science clinic and one seems to be more at the "alternative" end. Arguably my map display was half right and half wrong before, and now still is, although the other way around! Because the tagging was the same in each case, there's nothing that we can do to separate them.

161989846 11 months ago

Hello,
I suspect that some of the deletions here https://overpass-api.de/achavi/?changeset=161989846 have broken the townlands relation/5409187 and relation/5372342 .
You've also deleted a lot of trees here - can I ask why?
Best Regards,

The purpose of the OSM wiki is to document how people map, not to tell them how to map.
Did you discuss this edit beforehand as per osm.wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct ?
If not, then your actions are actively making OSM worse for editors and data consumers, not better.

161969878 11 months ago

Rather than saying "healthcare fixed" it would be much better to explain what you've changed things from, what you've changed they to and why you've changed it.

healthcare=osteopath is a tag that people actually consume: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/healthcare=osteopath#projects . Your unexpected tagfiddling here could result in things disappearing from maps.

However, old maps suggest a slightly different story.
An Ordnance Survey Town Plan of 1889 https://maps.nls.uk/view/231287205 suggests "Pope's Head Alley" for the eastern one and "Peter Lane Passage" for the western.
An earlier OS Town Plan from 1851 https://maps.nls.uk/view/231287106 also has "Pope's Head Alley" for the eastern one but no name for the western.
It's possible that the OS got confused in the 19th century, but it's also possible that strict modern naming rules weren't adhered to.

162023145 11 months ago

... beyond local knowledge I don't know of a license-compatible source for either. The Eastern one is often referred to (in incompatible-with-OSM sources, including Mark W Jones' "Snickelways of York" book) with a name, and a search for that name finds news articles describing it as "the most well-used off-grid free toilet in York".

Hello,
Are you sure way/1080694372 is a tunnel? It doesn't look like one (see also note/287651 ).

161452120 11 months ago

@Comino - ja, @JeroenHoek heeft hier gelijk. Als je het met meer mensen wilt bespreken, kun je dat doen op het forum https://community.openstreetmap.org/c/communities/nl/43 .

161452120 11 months ago

@Comino - yes, @JeroenHoek is correct here. If you'd like to discuss it with more people you can do that in the forum https://community.openstreetmap.org/c/communities/nl/43 .
