*not signed as 734 [...]

I should also add (I ran out of room in my changeset comment): I removed the old FTR segment from Muskeg River to Goodwin from the Hwy 734 relation, as this is no signed as 734 and no longer maintained by Alberta Transportation (MD of Greenview maintains it).

Hello Evpac,

It has been three days since I sent you a message and left a comment on your changeset changeset/144254712, and you still haven't replied. I'm concerned that you're not aware that many of the changes you're making are—from my own personal knowledge, being local to Calgary—blatantly incorrect. You made changes to 17th Avenue SW and Old Banff Coach Road which I know for a fact aren't true. I'm worried you don't realize you may be working off of outdated satellite photos and false info.

Please: respond to this comment. Barring a response from you I will otherwise refer your changes to the OSM Data Working Group, who may temporarily or permanently block you from contributing to OSM any further.

Hello Evpac,

As you are a relatively new contributor to OpenStreetMap, you may not be aware of some of the good practices (osm.wiki/Good_practice) and editing standards and conventions (osm.wiki/Editing_Standards_and_Conventions) used by all mappers to keep the quality and consistency of our work high. One of these good practices is adding good comments to your changesets (osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments). At a basic level it lets everyone else contributing to the map know what you did, and why. The absence of change comments can come across as rude and dismissive to others.

You have been asked by others in comments on your changes (changeset/142244107 , changeset/142678018 , changeset/142990101 , changeset/143045192 , changeset/143394081) to refrain from editing because those other contributors have found errors in your contributions, and your lack of comments on your changes has at least in part led them to become so frustrated that they suspect you're deliberately vandalizing the map.

Please: add good changeset comments. Comments like "..."—which is the only comment you've ever left on any of your changes except for one—are not helpful. Good comments that elaborate on what you're doing helps to avoid misunderstandings and lets everyone else know that your changes are constructive. Please respond to this comment, or to the direct message I've sent you that is a copy of this comment, to let us know you're actually even reading these attempts to correspond with you.

Thanks

Perfect, thanks very much for following up.

I've added the Anglican parish as a separate node located within the footprint of the building, so that the info that the parish still exists isn't lost. I also added the old names of the building to the building way. See changeset/143759086.

Cheers! :)

Do you have a source for this? I know the orthodox parish moved from their own building a couple blocks west of here about seven (?) years ago, but other than a sign out front displaying service times for St. Peter the Aleut's, the sign at the building entrance on 33rd Ave still reads "St. Mark & St. Philip's Anglican Church"... As far as I know the Anglican parish still own and occupy the building, they just share it with the orthodox parish.

Thanks!

No worries, just an FYI. ;)

FYI, the "soccer field" you deleted in this change does actually exist. Except it's not a soccer field, it's—believe it or not—for *polo*. I myself have never seen anyone actually using it, but that's what it's there for. See https://www.calgary.ca/parks/south-glenmore-park.html and https://www.calgary.ca/content/dam/www/corporate-communications/locations/south-glenmore-west.pdf (PDF)

I've since re-added it back to the map. (changeset/143595458)

I've manually rolled back changes made to Stoney Trail. I can say with 100% certainty that the freeway is still under construction between Bow Trail and Highway 8. It's not scheduled to open for another ~11 months.

Evpac, can you please add comments to your changes?

To anyone who reviews these changes, N.B. that for way/1187719542 parking is only allowed for taxis; however. the conditional no-stopping restriction applies to all potential users *including* taxis. I am otherwise unsure how to tag access here.

To be clear: anyone can *stop* here at any hours except Mo-Fr 07:00-08:30 & 15:30-18:00, but no one can *park* here except taxis (at any hour, except when the no-stopping restrictions apply). Make sense?

Hello Shoppinggeo,

Thank you for your contribution, but please note there was already a parking lot on the map in the location you tagged. As such, I've deleted the duplicate node you added.

Please also be mindful of naming conventions. I think it would be helpful if you reviewed name=* and osm.wiki/Names , particularly osm.wiki/Names#Names_are_not_for_descriptions. When you add, for example, a parking lot with a node or area tagged amenity=parking, you do not need to—and should not—also add "name=Parking". We use name=* to assign the *name* of the thing in question, not to describe it. As a point of comparison, it would be like naming a bench "Bench", or a tree "Tree".

Thanks for your contributions so far, and happy mapping. :)

I can independently confirm—without "Lyft-owned imagery"—that this does exist. It's a one-way though; see changeset/135077608

Okay, fair enough. I asked because I went to a Flames game recently and was pretty sure the signage still said Olympic Way. :D It was on my mind because I happened to notice there's a sign up a Saddledome Rise which is marked "Saddledome *Way*", which I wondered about. I see the City of Calgary maps still refer to this as Saddledome Rise, not Way, but I presume that was all part of the same project you worked on...?

Hi jmilot,

Appreciate your efforts to contribute to the map, but may I ask why you made these changes? You've added name=Plus 15 Skywalk tags to the ways that constitute the Plus 15 system, which is both unnecessary because there's a relation that encompasses all of these ways already called Plus 15, and erroneous because "Skywalk" is descriptive and not part of the name of the Plus 15 system anyway. It's like tagging a sidewalk with name=sidewalk or a road segment with name=road.

You've also added service=Plus 15 Skywalk and in some instances surface=Plus 15 Skywalk (e.g. way/338913941/), which is erroneous because the service=* tag should be used to elaborate on a highway=service road (see service=*#Highways). I presume the surface=* tags were simply a copy-paste typo.

Uhhh... when the hell did that happen? Signs still say "Olympic Way SE"...

Huh, I never really considered that people keep thinking highway=unclassified "needs to be fixed"...

Eventually I'm sure it'll change (I'd put my money on it being renamed "minor"); after all, we did eventually get rid of the pedestrian crossings named after zoo animals...

Can confirm with boots-on-the-ground experience this morning too... Lots of traffic on WB 4th Ave caught unaware and shunted to SB 10th Street SW after 9:00 am...

Hello Smidster,

No offence, but why would you change the streets in a central business district to "residential"? Other mappers have made these changes before, and every time I've rolled them back. See for example way/204201287/history. I've changed that road segment back **three times now**. The last time I commented on my changes: "roads in Downtown Calgary passing by >10-storey office towers could scarcely be considered 'residential'."

Does this seem "residential" to you: https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=51.051541861318&lng=-114.07534042028&z=18.81389736801481&pKey=226950208791650&focus=photo ?

Hey Rps333, just as a heads up and a gentle reminder to be careful about resolving notes (especially ones by anonymous authors) without verifying their veracity, "Sussy Baka Amogus Shrine" is just some internet meme junk. note/3475588 (note/3475588) should have simply been resolved with no action.

FYI you erroneously deleted hole names from the River Spirit Golf Club outside Calgary, Alta. (osm.org/#map=16/51.0366/-114.3791). Please be careful with these sorts of automated edits and don't just assume if a golf hole is named that the name is in error. In the case of River Spirit the holes were already tagged with "ref=#" and you effectively just deleted the names, which is confusing because there are three sets of nine-hole courses that are played in different combinations for a full 18-hole round. Someone playing this course needs to know the *name* of the hole they're on, not just the number, because they'll be playing the 1st hole on one course as the 10th hole on their back nine...
