| 168546282 | 6 months ago | looks good. If building=detached is more specific as a "freestanding" type of house (since building=house covers semi-detached or terraced too) building=* |
| 168553907 | 6 months ago | Typically we'd just use operator:type=government regardless of the level of government, but operator:type=council does have some usage but it may be unclear since it might be confused with other "Councils" eg. "Cancer Council" I've added `operator:wikidata` as this helps data consumers associate more information about the operator from wikidata. |
| 168553907 | 6 months ago | hi, why were the wikipedia and wikidata links deleted? They appear to be correct. I assume what happened is the iD editor didn't let you change the name preset due to the wikidata/wikipedia tags being present? In that case the correct solution is to manually edit the tags to update the name without deleting the wikipedia/wikidata tags. As such I've restored the deleted tags. |
| 168508941 | 6 months ago | In OpenStreetMap edits like this aren't "requests", instead they immediately update the map, there's no review. Other mappers map choose to review your changes and request feedback or after discussion if we feel the changes are detrimental we might revert or roll back changes. In this case your changes look good, and in line with community mapping standards. We get a lot of people come in and delete the whole road/track/driveway just because it's private, but we don't do that in OSM osm.wiki/Why_can%27t_I_delete_this_trail%3F so thanks for actually marking it as private instead. |
| 124716683 | 6 months ago | Reviewing the changes here https://osmcha.org/changesets/124716683 significant parts of the changes here created two parallel ways for different lanes of the road where no physical separation exists, and therefore I've reverted some of this changes back to the prior state around where Frenchs Forest Road East meets Warringah Roah. Prior to these changes, Frenches Forest Road East was not split into two directions at the intersection and it's much cleaner and simpler if we don't split it for a simple minor median but if you insist we should then I've left it in tact for this location only. The Bus Only turn lane was already mapped with :lanes tagging in 2020 and this change left those turn lanes and lanes=4 in tact while also adding a parallel way for the turn lane which is invalid. |
| 168468300 | 6 months ago | Thanks, if it's not open to the general public, but only those living or working within the community you could set access=private, similar to how it's tagged further along. |
| 168296217 | 6 months ago | are you sure these are already built or possibly still under construction? |
| 168299079 | 6 months ago | There's too many conflicts for an automated revert, so I've fixed: - way/54490663 street name on a power line
|
| 168299079 | 6 months ago | way/1410857505 seems unlikely they would re-align this section after it was only just constructed? |
| 168299573 | 6 months ago | roundabouts need junction=roundabout I've added this. |
| 168432137 | 6 months ago | Per prior comments, I've updated these to proposed roads. |
| 168432473 | 6 months ago | It appears you're basing these edits soley on the DCS NSW Base Map and I assume other DCS datasets (as the road name does not appear on the base map, but does appear in addressing data)? These datasets will include roads and lots that haven't started construction yet, as such unless you're basing your changes on other information and can confirm the status is otherwise, they should be marked as proposed roads. I've made edits to update this. |
| 168463333 | 6 months ago | hi please see osm.wiki/Why_we_won%27t_delete_roads_on_private_property and osm.wiki/Why_can%27t_I_delete_this_trail%3F In OpenStreetMap roads on private property are still mapped but as access=private which is usually then shown on maps as a private road or avoided by routing. I've reverted this change to restore the driveways, but also added the access=private tag. |
| 168423528 | 6 months ago | I think these names should go on the airport not the terminal ie. on way/985743235 |
| 168423723 | 6 months ago | Thanks, I just changed this too leisure=indoor%20play?uselang=en which I think is a better fit. |
| 168117364 | 6 months ago | hi, it's good practice to try ad retain the history of existing features osm.wiki/Good_practice#Keep_the_history So the preferences is to update what exists rather than delete and re-add them. A number of railway lines here have been deleted only to be re-added at the same location when you could just update the tags. For some of the deleted sections like https://pewu.github.io/osm-history/#/way/94893247 it would be better to update the tags to clarify what's there. We have a vast range of lifecycle prifex osm.wiki/Lifecycle_prefix. For example are the tracks still present but currently disused, are they razed or removed or destroyed? Even if they are completly gone, you could still keep them as was:railway while image still shows them otherwise other mappers map re-add them from imagery. |
| 168331282 | 6 months ago | hi could you please comment on the discussion at https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/melbourne-disused-rail-line-during-construction/132185 |
| 168382681 | 6 months ago | or actually since the public can drive, just access=yes (since for driveways it can be ambiguous without an explicit access=yes or access=private) |
| 168412024 | 6 months ago | psv=* is an access key. psv=yes means taxi's and busses are allowed to drive on this road, however it's not needed since by default we assume highway=primary is access=yes, ie. anyone can access it, cars, busses, bicycles, motorbikes. The tag doesn't indicate the road segment is part of a bus route, the bus route relation at relation/2733626 indicates that. |
| 168382681 | 6 months ago | I think it should be tagged based on what it is on the ground, I don't see why it can't be service=driveway and still be used by bus routes so long as it has the appropriate psv=* or bus=* access tags. |
