| 162716902 | 10 months ago | Are you sure the whole of Bourne Road and the entire estate off it (Beech Drive) is 10mph? That seems unlikely. Did you survey this? |
| 162670241 | 10 months ago | Hiya, welcome to OpenStreetMap and thanks for contributing! This change appears to affect Lancaster and Ellel as well as Hull — please try and keep changesets small and localised, so it’s easier for others to see what you’ve changed. So this could be three changesets: one for Hull, one in Lancaster and one in Ellel. See osm.wiki/Changeset#Geographical_size_of_changesets for more information Thanks, and happy editing :) |
| 162547596 | 10 months ago | Hi, thanks for this (and for your other improvements in the area recently). I see what you mean about the tagging, although the access=private should have made it clear that it’s not a public car park (it’s a private place for Kendal Honda to park cars for display). I think there should be more specific tagging than area=yes, though, to distinguish what the area is. Maybe some tag along the lines of area:highway=showroom_forecourt. I’ve been quite busy the past few days so haven’t had a chance to research options and come up with something better. I’ll try and get back to this soon if you don’t do so first :) |

| 162443922 | 10 months ago | Resolved in changeset/162482877, so I guess you saw my comment above. You can reply to these changeset discussion comments! It’s not meant to be a one-way thing :) |
| 162477174 | 10 months ago | Whoops, that should be Great Musgrave and Little Musgrave in the changeset comments and tags |
| 162443922 | 11 months ago | Heya, could you explain what the intention with this edit is please? The brand= tag is for tagging branding of things, typically for when a hotel is owned by a chain. I’ve never heard of a hotel brand called ‘Private’ and the Brantwood hotel’s website doesn’t mention anything about that. Are you sure this is correct? See brand=* for more information about the brand= key. |
| 162408416 | 11 months ago | Hiya, thanks for all your additions to Stainton recently, it’s nice to see more detail being added to the map! As you’re adding a lot of geometry (which is good), there are a couple of things you should probably be aware of to get the best results: 1. You can make buildings square easily by selecting them then pressing ‘Q’. This helps keep the map tidy. 2. The aerial imagery isn’t actually properly aligned to ground truth. You need to align it before starting to edit — this is why some of the buildings I’ve tidied up after you in Stainton will now look misaligned to you. Turn on the ‘OSMUK Cadastral Parcels’ overlay in the ‘Background Settings’ panel on the right, then adjust the imagery offset until features are aligned with the blue cadastral parcels lines. This alignment varies across the country, but with the current imagery for Stainton it’s -2.41,-0.76 metres. Once the imagery is aligned you should be able to trace buildings/walls/etc. and they’re much better aligned with ground truth (i.e. GPS). Thanks! Let me know if you have any questions :) |
| 162269596 | 11 months ago | I’ve gone ahead and re-added it in changeset/162425099, let me know if that’s not right |
| 162403811 | 11 months ago | Hi, me again. Why have you deleted High Man (node/5641737977/history)? Again, it’s visible on the OS OpenData StreetView data, so the name obviously means something (either a locality, fellside, or peak) and should be represented on the map. Ta |
| 162269596 | 11 months ago | Heya, thanks for updating this construction site in Stainton. You deleted one house (way/1187864290) — was that intentional? The foundations are clearly visible in aerial imagery from when it was a construction site, and it seems unlikely that the builders would have built the foundations then not gone on to build a house on top. But it’s possible. If so, I’ll re-add the area and explicitly tag it as ‘not constructed’ so that other editors don’t unintentionally re-add it from aerial imagery in future. Ta |
| 162247744 | 11 months ago | Thanks for clarifying. You accidentally deleted the pier in your edit, so I’ve added it back in changeset/162251937. Let me know if anything looks wrong with what I’ve done :) |
| 162249283 | 11 months ago | Hiya, thanks for your recent edits locally, it’s nice to see new local contributors :) I’ve removed the name from this particular section of footpath as it’s actually already correctly part of a ‘relation’ which describes the whole West Windermere Route. Relations allow for walking/riding/cycling routes to be described in more detail, and deal with the problem where one section of path can be part of multiple routes — if this was done by naming the path, how would a path which is both on the Pennine Way and Pennine Bridleway be named? There’s some more information about routes here: osm.wiki/Walking_Routes And here are the full WWW route relations, if you’re interested:
Happy to answer any questions if you have them :) (Partial revert in changeset/162251640) |
| 162247747 | 11 months ago | (If you want a hand with this, or have questions, I’m happy to help!) |
| 162247744 | 11 months ago | Has the Bike Barn Pier been demolished, or is it still physically present (but unused)? |
| 162247747 | 11 months ago | and, if so, that section of cycle lane should be tagged as a bridge, like the road is. |
| 162247747 | 11 months ago | It’s been a few months since I was last there, but doesn’t that service road run under the bridge, and the cycle lane is on top of the bridge? If so, they shouldn’t be connected. |
| 162243196 | 11 months ago | Reverted (as changeset/162244615) for the same reasons as in changeset/162242922 — see discussion there |
| 162242922 | 11 months ago | Hiya, thanks for your edits around the Dales recently. I’ve reverted this change because the access tagging for this bridleway was already correct, and your changes broke vehicle access to Gunnerfleet Farm. Bridleways are a right of way, and don’t necessarily describe the physical appearance of the route. The tagging to indicate a bridleway is designation=public_bridleway horse=designated. In this case, the physical appearance of the way is as a compacted gravel track, with private vehicular access to the farm. highway=bridleway is a bit of a distraction and generally only makes sense to use when going across fields, with no vehicular access (a bit like highway=footway is used). See osm.wiki/Access_provisions_in_the_United_Kingdom#Public_bridleways for more information on tagging them. Thanks! Happy to answer any questions if you have them. Reverted as changeset/162244290 |
| 162228941 | 11 months ago | This edit covers most of the length of the UK, and is therefore quite hard for other editors to review. Please make your edits smaller in future, thanks: osm.wiki/Changeset#Geographical_size_of_changesets |
