| A Nice Mapping Trip | @Dron007: It seems to prevent peeing in the corners, but if you’re drunk or desperate enough, nothing will stop you. I saw two men publicly urinate in Nice, one of them not even in a corner. |

| Logo de OSM en formato real | Well done, that’s funny and genius at the same time! |

| OpenData for drinking water refill stations | @InsertUser: It’s the same on EveryDoor, they don’t use the |

| Finding SEO spam in OSM | Thanks for taking the time to put so much effort into it. |
|
| OpenData for drinking water refill stations | @philippec: Fair enough, it is probably a bit fast. I was planning on doing a longer video, but I haven’t found any other refill places yet. I can’t map the same place twice. The official tags are explained on the wiki, though: drinking_water:refill=*. |
|
| OpenData for drinking water refill stations | I’m afraid I don’t understand your argument about going back in time. I make shorts to prove how little time it takes to map certain things. |
|
| My pandemic mapping project: Cheltenham addresses | Great work, I agree with most of your points, one very important one being the high viz vest. People are very concerned about their privacy an their children. I mapped a lot of addresses using StreetComplete, but buildings were already mostly mapped. For new estates, I use OSMAnd as well. I love the visualizations as well! |
|
| new tag man_made=urine_deflector | @ChristianA: It’s not going to be my lifelong mission to map them, just a way to draw attention to them. But I agree; you won’t get that diversity on any other map. |
|
| new tag man_made=urine_deflector | @MxxCon: No, it’s the thing behind the lamp post. It’s all explained on the wiki and in the video. |

| Velocity Leizpig | Als Exil-Leipzigerin freut mich das, bin dort fast nur Rad gefahren als Verkehrsmittel. Das war allerdings vor meiner OSM-Zeit bzw ganz am Anfang, als ich noch Anfängerin war. Hier in Kilkenny war letzes Wochenende auch Fahrradfestival (BikeFest), witzig. |
|
| interesting trip to Co. Sligo | Thanks for checking that out, I see it under 5.6 under the first link now. |
|
| too far behind | Don’t despair, take your time and do as much as you can. Data getting out of date can easily become a problem, I agree with that. But it can’t be helped, we are only human after all. |

| 3D Mapping | Sieht gut aus. Kirchen sind natuerlich immer am beeindruckendsten. |
|
| Mapping and learning about milk churn stands | Thanks, Adrian. I hadn’t realized how many memorials there were that aren’t genuine milk churn stands, in Ireland and Germany. Maybe we should use memorial=milk_churn_stand for those. The date is a bit of a giveaway, I would think. Maybe the people in charge of the heritage garden know. |
|
| Mapping and learning about milk churn stands | @Skinfaxi: Great to hear that so many are surviving. I was told on Twitter that thousands survive Ireland, but we’ll only know once they’re all mapped. ;-) It’s interesting, because they were only in use for about 50-80 years, and were disused in many countries by the 1970s, as far as I have found out. |

| Mapping and learning about milk churn stands | Thanks for finding that on the wiki. I vaguely remembered looking for that when creating the |
|
| Mapping and learning about milk churn stands | I checked the naming conventions, and the information I found suggested that hyphens are favoured. There you go, that’s the wiki for you. |
|
| Seen on my (virtual) travels 3. Old Windmills on Anglesey | So it was you who mapped all the solar power. We noticed that alright. Interesting diary entry as well, thanks! |
|
| Mapping National monuments of Ireland | @Mateusz Konieczny: I didn’t invent this tag, and I made sure the structure tagged with it is mentioned in the corresponding wikipedia article linked with |
|
| OpenStreetMap + Public Transportation Route | Haha, thanks for promoting my video. It’s still a lot of work to map a public transport route, and you easily miss a bit on a bridge or situations like that, where the road bit is very short. I think it’s easier in JOSM to find the gap. |
