Changeset When Comment

Hello,

Thanks for this but we had to re-do your edit.

Let me explain: the quest is not about how many stands there are but how many bicycles can be parked here. Each U-stand can accomodate 2 bicycles. Therefore, if you spot a range of 5 stands, the correct answer is 10.

Don’t worry, we already fixed this one. Hope this will help you for future edits.

Happy mapping!

All those large "buildings" in Pakistan which you added do not seem to be buildings, they look more like residential areas, e.g.

Hello,

Thanks for the effort.
Warning: this pic4review app seems to corrupt OSM data when dealing with stops that are ways or areas (i.e. all tram stops in Brussels). I don’t know how it works but it retagged ordinary shelters and made fake bus stops out of them. I had to revert this, and I transferred the mapillary tag with the image to the correct platform.

Example here of the damage:

Thanks for this and good luck with the new shop.

Since the place will only open in two months, I set the opening hours to off, to avoid misleading people into thinking they can find an open Kruidvat here. I put a reminder to myself to update that in the week before the opening.

A few months ago I enquired if you still need to repeat the addresses of your shops on their nodes. We are in the process of eliminating duplicate addresses on many places all over Brussels, and Kruidvat+ICI PARIS XL shops are an unfotunate exception.
Did you make any progress in the way you use OSM so that we can finally remove addr:* tags from them?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I am not sure we are talking about the same thing here.

You changed the highway type from "tertiary" to "residential". The highway type is just a way to show some streets more or less prominently on the map. The only condition is that highways of the same type connect properly, and unfortunately you broke the continuity here.

This is not the same as access tags, i.e. setting who is allowed to use a street. There is a special way to tag this and it has nothing to do with the highway type.

Can you please explain what you meant by "Residents only". Are you suggesting there is an access restriction on this street?

Thanks in advance.

Beste,
Het is fijn dat je helpt met bushaltes. Kan ik u een of twee dingen leren?

Als de naam zoiets bevat als "perron 8", dan is de publieke naam ("name") van de halte de korte vorm: "Diksmuide Station". En dan voegen we de technische naam toe als "name:De_Lijn=Diksmuide Station perron 8".

De referentiecodes van De Lijn worden altijd opgeslagen als "ref:De_Lijn". Negeer het "ref" tekstvak volledig en typ de code altijd in de tag lijst onderaan.

Groeten.

Don’t forget to add proper tags to it → tourism=gallery in this case.

+ The street name does not match. "Rue" starts with an upper letter.

+ Can you please review the location of this gallery. It looks like you attached it to the middle of the road, whereas it should probably be inside a building.

Bonjour.
Je suppose que votre intention est que votre point soit visible et trouvable. Donc il ne faut pas oublier de mettre surtout le bon tag pour dire à la carte ce que c'est.
Il faut ajouter : office=it
osm.wiki/Tag%3Aoffice%3Dit

Hello,

Thanks for this and welcome to OSM.

Here is some advice that I hope will help you make better contributions.

In this changeset, you added a point to the map with an address and a description text. It’s nice but nothing will be shown on the map. The description you added is nice but this tag is only for humans, the data renderer will not use it. To make it appear on the map, you need to add a special tag that tells exactly what it is.

It looks like the most appropriate tag to add here is "shop=laundry (shop=laundry).

To do this in the online editor, find the point you created, click on it, and you will see a list named "Tags". Hit the "+" button at the end of this list, type shop in the left box and laundry in the right box.

Another suggestion too: shops and amenities are almost always located inside buildings. I see that this point has been created outside of the building, I guess you want to move it inside.

Once you upload your changes, it usually takes a few minutes before they get visible on the main map.

Happy mapping!

I know you have good intentions but this is not a correct way to add things to the map.

Do not put a French-only name as the name tag and then a Dutch translation into "operator", that makes no sense. Both CPAS and OCMW are part of the main name.

Don’t worry, we fixed it.

Hello,

Sorry but I had to revert this changeset because it (really) broke too many things. It is a complicated intersection and when you pushed or cut roads it broke bus routes continuity and cycle relations too.

As an alternative to the issue we talked about earlier this week, a quick workaround can be to add a small connector to cut the corner without going to the centre of the intersection. This might be a small improvement.
way/1217185327

My first idea was to draw the two directions of the road as separate roads, but it will probably make the main intersection even messier. I fear there is no good solution here…

142865367 about 2 years ago

Hello,

Nice driveways. Next time, make sure that roads are only connected to other roads and never to boundaries. You inadvertently snapped two driveways to the official border between Flanders and Brussels, changing the respective size of both territories.
Don’t worry, it’s already fixed. ;-)

142867298 about 2 years ago

Hello,

If you draw the cycle track on its own, please make sure to remove the "cycleway" tag on the main road to avoid double definition, e.g. here: way/151340187/history

Also, if you want to create shared foot- and cycleways, at the very minimum please make sure to add the segregated tag (segregated=yes means that cyclists and pedestrians have their own space (D9 sign) whereas segregated=no means they both share the same space (for instance if there is the D10 sign)).

Bonjour et bienvenue sur OSM.

Voici déjà quelques commentaires pour améliorer les contributions sur la carte et éviter les erreurs communes.

1. Les tags pour un commerce sont mis sur le bâtiment uniquement si commerce occupe 100 % de l’espace (p.ex. un supermarché qui a son propre bâtiment). Beaucoup de commerces de ville sont dans des maisons avec des habitants aux étages : en ce cas il est mieux de créer un simple point pour le commerce, sans toucher au bâtiment.

2. Ne pas répéter les adresses sur les commerces quand ils sont déjà mis sur le bâtiment ou sur la porte. Par exemple, il y a déjà une entrée 39 ici (node/1485653435) → ne pas écrire la même chose sur le commerce.

3. Numéros de téléphone au format international ISO → +32 2… et pas 02…

Happy mapping, have a nice day!

Dear user @Bruno1460,

This is a kind reminder to ask you to please stop editing cycle relations in Brussels.

You are mechanically changing the names of all of them to impose your personal naming scheme. There is a discussion on the OSM.be Matrix channel and you started editing shortly after launching your proposal without waiting for a consensus about how to name them properly. (Spoiler: definitely not with such names that break all language validation rules.) There are also other tags to fix on the cycle network and we’d rather group all changes at once. Finally, the iD editor is not suited for such a task, you will probably miss some relations or corrupt them if you select them manually in the online editor.

Why was it so urgent to change the whole network today *before* leaving time for fellow mappers to react?

142810665 about 2 years ago

OK for the fix here
way/149141419

… but why did you erase the entire associatedStreet relation?

142749668 about 2 years ago

We opened a discussion yesterday during the OSM.be meeting but haven’t settled on a definitive version yet, especially because the proposed tagging scheme does not work for circular routes.

In addition, what you’ve just done here is also violating language rules because the language separator is not used correctly.

Please pause your edits until we can reach a consensus.

Hi and welcome.

The objects you uploaded to the OSM database today raise a few questions.

First, if you edit in multiple countries, it is preferable to upload items separately.

Second, we’d like to ask how those points were collected. Personal surveys? Probably not on the same day or week. That is another reason to upload changes separately, because a single changeset spanning several continents raise some legitimate suspicion.

Finally, some names or objects seem very strange. Here are a few examples.

node/11269505477
name=Nice sand beach
Very unlikely to be a real name, it looks more like a personal comment about that beach.

node/11269505373
name=local bar
→ If a bar has no name, do not invent a name.

Also, I doubt that amenities in Sub-Saharan Africa have Swedish names, such as: Vw buss, Gamla bilar, Beach smått, Tyger i mängder…

node/11269505376
name=Afya Internationall hospital
I wanted to know if such a hospital existed (and how OSM mappers would have missed such an important hospital so far). There is a building nearby, which is probably the hospital… but what a nice coincidence to see that both Apple Maps and your node have the same location, not inside the building but a few meters on the west!

node/11269505472
name=Land for sale
shop=laundry
→ This is a very unlikely combination, perhaps autocomplete in the app offering the wrong object type.

Either you didn’t intend to share those personal bookmarks and inadvertently uploaded them, or you wanted to contribute to OSM by adding all of those. In both cases, it looks like this changeset contains so many mistakes or dubious objects that it should be reverted. (Unless somebody wants to spend the time investigating everything and fixing every object one by one.)

142663749 about 2 years ago

That being said, I don’t understand the layout of this cycle track.

Upon looking at DV preliminary imagery, it is located just east of the new tunnel… but this is a normal road that is already open.
https://www.mapillary.com/app/?pKey=638713714913067

The picture I have was taken about 2 weeks ago. It’s possible a new cycle track will come here, but in this case we’d rather draw it slightly more to the east. I’ll see what I can do.

If you have more info about the onteigeningsbesluit or a link to a description or map of the project, don’t hesitate to share here below, it will save time.
