This is okay, https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/L-6r2vO0kBssTzd6tdvR2w but you're right that once the light rail starts this isn't really highway=pedestrian anymore

Hey mate, I surveyed this on the weekend and on the section outside QVB, there was only a road from Hilton to Park St, not on the north end. See https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/TBj3My8YjHcZ2zU-C4B0UQ

Then outside Sydney Town Halla again there was no road on the north end. https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/PTBWvbGYIsTC7QQ9jfrl5g https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/kZzz6HFF5SkfutV5PDjYHw

With that in mind I've changed this back. Also I noticed you've accidentally snapped nodes between underground and above ground features.

Hey there, I don't think it's fair to the original mapper to simply delete these tags, it's better to add in the information in another way. eg. adding in the bbqs.

Hi, according to the NSW Geographical Names Board, this park is named Edna Dunn Reserve, assigned 1st Feb 2019.

water=bay is obsolete, according to water=* "water=cove and water=bay: the established tagging for bays, coves and inlets is natural=bay".

Feel free to also use the tag segregated=no (segregated=*) to indicate that the pedestrians and cyclists share the same lane.

Hey there,

We are unable to use any data published from the source you quoted since their Copyright statement is not compatible with OSM.

Even without that, these station locations came from a survey of the above ground construction works, the graphic on their website might not be that accurate, I think we should wait until construction works continue and we get a better picture, or get some open data from Transport which confirms with more accuracy.

Reverting ...these features are already mapped in OSM.

Re fibre;copper, it's okay as what you had wasn't wrong, just not complete. If you haven't already I'll update it to include copper.

I think it depends, for example if you look up a shop website and find the address listed there and add that, then it's okay.

If you have a database of all exchanges in NSW and systematically copy across all the data, then that's not okay, see osm.wiki/Copyright

If you've systematically copied across from another database, and that database isn't released to the public domain or a suitable open license, then best leave them out.

also the address was already present, so is source:addr=tpg;accc fair?

I think you need to be careful copying addresses from other databases, that's generally not allowed.

Shouldn't this be telecom:medium=fibre;copper? according to telecom:medium=* this is the medium used by subscribers. This exchange is still servicing ADSL and telephone over copper lines.

I've reverted your changes for a second time now, please see changeset/71181899

I probably won't call this a roundabout... just a road which happens to be round.

71181899 over 6 years ago

I've reverted this change in changeset/71183048 as it does not match more recent on the ground and mapillary observations.

Please before you map without being on the ground to survey, please take care to check other sources like Mapillary and OSC for more recent imagery, and take care to look at the object's history that you are changing. For example the older version of the way you changed was part of changeset/68323199 which specifically mentioned in the changeset comment "Removal of roundabout which has now been removed and creation of new traffic signals at Decora Drive (have driven through this area, satellite imagery is not updated yet)".

I've fixed these for the ways which aren't roads.

Hi I noticed you named way/628481043/history "Unknown" if you're unsure of the name or it doesn't have a name it's best to just leave the name empty/blank.

Also for way/628481056 you've used the name u, is that correct or should I delete it?

56889525 over 6 years ago

Hi I see you added way/566508381 with name="NoName".

If the track has no name or you're unsure, best to just leave the name empty/blank.
