This changeset has been reverted fully or in part by changeset/80938934 where the changeset comment is: despite multiple user blocks, you continue to add this fictional rubbish to osm

I'm a bit concerned about the admissibility of your source for OSM, as mentioned in the multiple comments to your earlier changeset, in that the best I could get from a search was an abstract describing the paper, and the feeling it was behind a paywall or something, but I wasn't motivated to search thoroughly on an inconvenient Handy. Mention is made of a website-to-come, but I found no details.

Can you provide a link to the terms under which the derived database may be used? While the data may be extracted from open sources like SRTM, OSM operates in a region where collections of data are under copyright protection, so that a large- (or small- ) scale import or copying of this data into OSM could be problematic, given that OSM allows and encourages use far beyond educational or research purposes.

I'd be more than happy to see that the data is available under a compatible licence for any sort of use, and I just wasn't able to find that statement. thanks

two things - looks like the housenumber got lost between the database-dump node, and your transfer of this info to the way.

and second, are you certain the single business or office is the sole occupant of the property, as implied by tagging the way? when i feed the full address into a search, i come up with additional names using the address, and am unsure if these are separate offices, or simply partners and additional names for services rended (as i have seen elsewhere where a single ambulance-chaser tries to list half a dozen sue'em &Howe separate businesses at a single address)

thanks

it would be one thing were this to be a simple beginner edit, where georg provided the appropriate feedback to an obvious genuine newbie as seen within a day or so mixed with dozens of seo dump cleanups, but this edit bears all the fingerprints of a paid professional who has no interest in mapping properly or learning osm and iD despite multiple edjts, and is more than happy to dump malformed data and rely on unpaid volunteers to correct them as you have, or to clean them up as georg does probably hundreds of times per day, and as i do elsewhere dozens of times daily.

if you are happy to do that work, then go ahead, as locally it may not seem a burden, but multiply the hundreds of buggy additions per day by the same repeated bad actors and i'll posit that real mappers have better things to do than fixing bad edits, and there is already too much bad data needing a clean-up that is being ignored, be it in the form of unacted notes or bad data like this.

iD should not permit a beginner to make these sorts of tagging mistakes, and if this so-called beginner is skipping the tutorial to dump a template of the wrong format into osm, well, i tell you, ... there's enough wrong and poor data that waiting for on-the-ground verification will lower the osm quality to the point nobody will bother, as can be seen in many poorly-mapped areas.

actually, you ought to be able to continue to use potlatch so long as osm keeps links to the p1 and p2 executables. just keep one or more flash binaries downloaded and saved, and keep an old version of a compatible browser that you don't update, maybe in a restricted sandbox if security concerns you.

i've a several-year-old browser/flash combination on what was my work server, used for almost exclusively osm work, but that hardware died some months ago, and while my attempts to swap the drive into a similarly-lightning-damaged box were partly successful, apart from the damaged and missing hardware i took for granted, and i was able to do quick cleanups with potlatch1, it seems the change of graphics results in potlatch2 bombing early on, so if it's worth the bother, i'd suggest getting a known-working setup and then freezing the critical potlatch parts of it. my own substitute had so much difficulty starting iD that i gave up on visual editing. i may revisit why i can't fire up potlatch/flash on the android handy i use for now, or spend my time properly rebuilding the borrowed machine with hdmi-video and functioning ethernets (got maybe a dozen that caught fire in various devices), or work on something else entirely.

Two objects here have been infected, one for the second time, with the spam of a couple years ago that plagued cyprus and even today causes maps.me false alarms when people use ancient data from that time.

DWG will be getting an earful Real Soon Now.

It's trivial to review these four changed objects, though, and the nice thing about these globe-spanning changesets is that so many more eyes will concentrate on them, unlike a remote backwater Pokémon remapping vandalism unnoticed for years.

It catches my eye that two of the four objects seem to be involved in a DWG revert war now, the second round for a remote mechanical edit without on-the-ground survey for currentness and applicability.

I don't see any clear boners like a drogerie that knocks you off your feet with an overwhelming parfumerie, but is not limited to just perfumes. now if you'll excuse me and my allergies i'll gasp for fresh air just remembering being suffocated by passing the open doors of one of those drogeries. *wheeze* *gasp* *hork*

(and people say *I* stink just because I haven't bathed for weeks)

Maestro is a worldwide branding of the payment card under Eurocard/Mastercard/and their ilk. Given the appearance of other non-local marks and the general acceptance of Maestro in germany, i could believe this, however it is called.

The Girocard, whatever variant, is a german Thing and while probably most german Maestro cards are Girocards, that name excludes the international cards, so the question would be if an international card can be used contactlessly, and not just the domestic cards.

or pack paper money as i continue to do, and tell these leeches drawing ever-increasing percentages of my finances to get bent. as i wander off into oblivion, unable to pay my free beer and a handful of weeds (Brennnessel, Labkraut) to fill me gaping gob.

this changeset has gone very wrong and should be reverted, seem to be a bunch of these recently

this changeset is very wrongly placed and should be reverted

there seems to be something very wrong here, with buildings added near null island

by the way, if my difficult history navigation is correct, the german name:de field now clones name:en, rather than being the actual deutsch introduced in revision v5. i think.
