Shouldn’t this wikidata/wikipedia tagging be moved to the subject:wikidata= and subject:wikipedia= tags (subject:wikidata=*) instead of being deleted?

Looks good to me, thanks :)

Heya :) With the removal of bicycle=designated from way/1312267054, I think this might have broken bicycle routing between the Bay Gateway and Lancaster Road.

Hi, I’ve reverted your changes (as changeset/155960350) because it’s not clear what you were trying to achieve.

If you want a hand with making improvements to the map, I’d be happy to help :)

I’ve reverted the original changes (as changeset/155837143) because they were not correct, but am happy to work with you to find a better solution, if you can provide the details above :)

Hiya, thanks for the edit here. Unfortunately changing foot=yes to foot=no here is not correct — the `foot` tag reflects the legal status of foot access, not its routing priority, and hence foot=no means that pedestrians using the carriageway is legally not allowed, which is not the case in Lancaster Uni.

See foot=* for documentation of the `foot` key.

To solve the routing problem, it would be useful to know what routing software the user was using, and what their source and destination were. Decent routing software should heavily prioritise pedestrian ways (such as footpaths and separately-mapped pavements). It might be the case that something on the route was not mapped correctly (i.e. was tagged as if it were impassable to pedestrians even though it actually is) so the router thought the only possible route was to use one of the vehicle roundabouts.

Hope that makes sense, thanks

Hiya, welcome to OpenStreetMap. Were you trying to add a bus stop or a lamp post here? Thanks

I’ve deleted it as changeset/155579392

Heya, is way/1308854634 definitely correct? It’s crossing the railway line, and I don’t remember a building being built into the embankment there.

👍 I’ve improved it in changeset/155343229

Hi, just to check: are you aligning the aerial imagery to the Cadastral Parcels before modifying geometry? Because this edit looks like it’s making the alignment worse.

The current offset for Bing compared to Cadastral Parcels for this area of Lancaster is about -0.52,-2.16.

Hiya, I don’t think this is the right change to make. These ferries carry foot passengers, so it’s correct that they’re tagged foot=yes. If a walking app is routing people down them, then that seems like a problem with the app; most routing apps provide an option for whether to use ferries (or toll bridges, or toll roads if driving) — and planning a walk which takes in a ferry trip in the Lakes is not unheard of either!

What app are you using?

Hiya. When a shop has closed, please update its tagging to use the disused: lifecycle prefix (osm.wiki/Lifecycle_prefix) rather than deleting the node. This preserves the address data, and other long-lasting tagging for the shop.

I’ve done so for this shop in changeset/155321555.

(Thank you for these improvements along the A6, btw)

Hiya, if you’re going to add lots of tracks on farmland, please consider adding access=private to them by default. It’s a safer guess than leaving them as publicly accessible. The Public Rights of Way overlay indicates which ones are public. Ta

Separate services with separate opening times (e.g. cafe, community space, foodbank) can be added as nodes within the larger area as they open

Hiya, what was your source for these ISO3166-2 tags? I can’t find an official mention of them anywhere.

I ask because someone has now removed them, and it would be good to know what’s actually correct:
- changeset/154583773
- changeset/154583784

Hiya, welcome to OpenStreetMap :)

Please make sure your edits are limited to small geographical areas. This one spans most of England, and as a result a lot of people have been notified about these changes. It would have been better to do this as two edits, one for each Center Parcs resort.

See osm.wiki/Changeset#Geographical_size_of_changesets

Thanks!

(See discussion on changeset/154626182)

From a quick check, both the Longleat and Elveden Center Parcs use landuse=residential. So either they should be changed too, or this should be changed back.

I haven’t exhaustively checked other holiday villages, or ones outside England, though.
