Thanks. I've added a few extra tags to mark the brand and tag it as a bottle return machine.

name is for proper names not descriptions per osm.wiki/Good_practice#Don't_use_name_tag_to_describe_things

See diet:vegetarian=* and diet:vegan=*

cuisine=* should be for french, german, japanese etc, not the diet types.

hi shanewh, given you're brand new to OSM, I suggest taking some time to learn about how OSM works, learn from other experienced mappers in the area, and take in feedback.

In this case fortera is correct that if the bike lane exists it should be mapped. If you don't like narrow bike lanes perhaps you could work on tagging the widths of each bike lane so people can make maps highlighting those that are wide and those that aren't? Then routing engines can favour wide ones and avoid narrow ones.

Agreed with fortera here. a top level access=no strongly implies it's in general not accessible to anyone, it's always best to try and tag specific modes and omit the top level access tag.

So it sounds like foot=yes + bicycle=no + horse=no.

hi shanewh, I can see you're brand new to OSM, I suggest reading some wiki pages like osm.wiki/Good_practice

In this case, it's easy, just tag the bike lane width per cycleway=*#Supplementary_details then data consumers like maps and routers can factor that in. You can even then make your own map style using OSM data that ignores bike lanes less than a width you choose, then others can make other map styles showing bike lanes even if they might be narrow.

Seems unlikely there would be a house ware shop here, can you provide anything to support your claim? Also the building added should only cover the building footprint, not the whole lot, is that something you can fix?

I added a landuse=brownfield to indicate what's there now, but I'm just going of Esri World Imagery, nut sure if construction has started?

Sorry I just found out "On 1 July 2023, MMP was officially formed through
the amalgamation of three previous cemetery
operators and Crown land managers: Northern
Cemeteries, Rookwood General Cemeteries and
Southern Metropolitan Cemeteries."
So that answers the Northern Cemeteries piece, but not sure about the Council?

72669618 10 months ago

From what I can see the operator is Metropolitan Memorial Parks https://www.metropolitanmemorialparks.com.au/locations/field-of-mars-cemetery

Given you added both Northern Cemeteries and Ryde City Council I wanted to check with you if you had any extra local knowledge?

Thanks for adding this, it looks more like a shared driveway rather than a residential road/street, what do you think? I'm also not sure about including the name Ryan Place, if it is a shared driveway we won't normally apply the street name of the adjoining street to the driveway.

If you check the history at https://pewu.github.io/osm-history/#/node/11013942187 you can see the node was originally correctly placed, but then subsequently (likely accidentally) moved. Therefore I've restored the node back to v1 which was placed correctly.

In this case the name appears on the DCS NSW Basemap which is an allowed sourced and available out of the box in iD as a background layer, since the name is there we can keep the name you've added.

hi the Georges River website and spatial portal contained copyrighted data and content, and they are not able to be used for mapping in OSM. You can rely on local knowledge and from physical signage, but please don't copy across copyrighted council information.

164058977 10 months ago

looks good, you could consider adding segregated=*

164059217 10 months ago

Unfortuantly per osm.wiki/Australian_Data_Sources#Queensland most of the QLD QSpatial sources aren't permitted to be used in OSM. We can use the Geoscape Admin Boundaries dataset which is released quarterly.

Good work migrating the the turn lanes and placement tags correctly! Impressive to do it in iD without the visual feedback you get in JOSM with the "Lane and road attributes" style.

163884869 10 months ago

hi, not sure what happened here, but I think you wanted to split this way into two features, one as a fire trail and another as a path, but somehow you ended up with two overlapping ways. I've fixed this now.

164087656 10 months ago

It looks like you've tried to fix the overlapping ways, however changeset/163884869 showed the intent was to split it into track and trail. I've restored the track deleted here and fixed the overlap.

163727389 10 months ago

Yeah I agree that it's hard to decide, and that railway=funicular includes both technical funicular's where there must be two tracks and two cars, joined by the same cable to counterbalance each other and "inclined railways where the vehicle(s) are moved by cables, but which are not necessarily a funicular from a technical standpoint".

Then inclined elevators or inclinators aren't given a definition on the wiki and if you read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclined_elevator they are just a type of cable railway.

In terms of their form, function highway=elevator as an inclinator is better here especially where there is just a booth, or single seat or open platform instead of a larger railway car.
