Hi - thanks for fixing.

Hi - thanks for fixing.

Thanks for that - things go "live" into the map data immediately (there's no review process) . Just one tiny thing though - there's no need to make up a "name" for everything (like way/361545232/history ) if the thing in really life doesn't really have one - the tags will be good enough to say what it is. Of course if it _does_ have a name (like I suspect Nether Alderley Mill) then adding the name makes perfect sense.

@The Locksmith Rather than jumping in with both feet as you have done, I'd suggest making smaller survey-based edits first, and discussing them with the community both locally and internationally. If you screw up boundaries in an obviously not-thought-through import you can only expect to be reverted.

Your edit to way/214140614 makes no sense here. As mapped, it runs through a road. It would be far better to try and engage with the previous mapper to try and understand what they were trying to do, and why they mapped it as they did, or if that doesn't work add a map note so that a local real mapper can survey it.

Please don't delete information from the map like this. "possible ford" does not mean the same as "ford"

On the ways, how did you know which highway type to use? Did you survey them all?

Did you actually survey this? "probably" does not mean the same as "yes".

What was your source for intermittent=yes here? Did you survey it, or contact the original mapper to find out what they meant?

What was your source for intermittent=yes here? Did you actually go out and survey it and find it there and not there at different times of year?

Why have you removed information from the map in this changeset?

@Dr Kludge may I respectfully suggest that you revert this changeset, then get out of the armchair and go out and map something in the real world instead? Any amount of fiddling with tags will never improve the volume of data within OpenStreetMap, and changes like this one actually reduce the quality of the data that real mappers have painstakingly collected.

For the avoidance of doubt, I can categorically state that way/331497978 is NOT an amenity=bar. It's a hotel bar (serves a nice pint, but not really a pub because it's part of the hotel, though it does welcome walkers who aren't covered in mud)

The wiki should be descriptive rather than proscriptive; unfortunately the overlap between wiki editors and actual mappers isn't high, and sometimes people's personal point of view creeps through. I would certainly never edit anything based on what the wiki says alone - it's always worth trying to understand the sense of what was trying to be mapped and making sure that sense is preserved, As to whether an embankment tag or a layer tag is better here, I'd look to taginfo to see the usage of both and to the various public stylesheets for where it's consumed (and no, I haven't done that, so can't say what would be best) but just removing the tag without trying to understand the sense of what was being recorded makes no sense.

Sounds like a similar issue to the one that I raised last year https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/765 .
I've pretty much given up on the "standard" style being useful for anything that I'd want to use it for. See also the examples here https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2015-July/073526.html

You've added way/355323843 so that it joins exactly at a gate node/1126936346 on another path, which makes no sense. In reality it'll join either west or east of the gate - which is it?

How does way/355307600 cross the stream? Is there a bridge or is it culverted? What are the access rights on it?

What are the access rights on way/355306826 ? It seems to go into a private road.

Some of these look pretty unlikely. way/354921409 has been mapped as a bridleway, yet according to the imagery seems to go through buildings and hedges - the tracing looks very crude indeed. Some is clearly also track rather than bridleway. Adding rubbish like this devalues the work that other people put in trying to accurately reflect what's really on the ground.

Hello - has something gone a bit wrong here way/361419777 seems to stop dead on its way south. When I was last here there was a fairly complicated junction (that was in OpenStreetMap previously) has it really been removed?
