| Wrong Postcodes in The Netherlands | you can change the postal codes by editing it (within the area that has the "3903" postal code) |
|
| Housenumbers and privacy, the sequel/possible epilogue | Sorry for the late reply. I don't usually document housenumbers using a camera. |
|
| Housenumbers and privacy, the sequel/possible epilogue | I'm talking about housenumber documentation paranoia, not Panoramafreiheit. |
|
| Non-legalese version of the contributor terms | And there should be an option where you can "choose" your license. (Suggested licenses are ODbL 1.0, DbCL 1.0, CC BY-SA (2.0, 2.5, 3.0) and PD. You can choose to dual or multi-license your edits/contributions unless want your edits to be part of the Public domain or the "let the foundation decide that for me" license) |
|
| Non-legalese version of the contributor terms | It should be "anything", not "anyhing". And there should be a "Message too long? Click here" link for those who are stumped with those "big words" |
|
| Housenumbers and privacy | I assume that the person is running for a local post in Los Baños. To play safe, I won't upload the waypoints/traces that contain the offending waypoint (until we make amends or the concerned person forgets the incident in 2-4 months time) |
|
| Housenumbers and privacy | Thanks, Gnonthgol and JohnSmith. |
|
| spam in diary | Content or user no longer exist. Apparently, spam was removed. |
|
| Papé Beltway in the news | @daveemtb I also use name= and osm.wiki/Tag:old_name=, but that doesn't cause that much controversy IRL. For example: http://www.gmanews.tv/story/143204/Officials-inaugurate-GMA-Network-Drive-in-QC, which happened over a year ago. |
|
| Papé Beltway in the news | http://www.registerguard.com/csp/cms/sites/web/news/cityregion/24603064-41/welch-commission-eugene-government-map.csp is the link. If they want to change it, might as well tag name=Eugene Beltline Road/Randy Papé Beltway; old_name=Belt Line Road; new_name=Randy Papé Beltway to solve that problem (or not) |
|
| Routing in cdauth’s map | It also works on IE7 as well (sort of) |
|
| New to this mapping thing... | You can't use data from Google maps here. |
|
| Resort | Try tourism=hotel, resort=yes. If it was close to the shore, I would have tagged it as natural=beach. |
|
| Polo Obando Bulacan Balagtas Bocaue Meycauayan Marilao | sorry for screwing up some of your edits. if need help, you can email me. |
|
| Caramoan | Caramoan is known by some people because of the French adaptation/version of Survivor. |
|
| Revised scheme for trails in Middlesex Fells, Mass., USA | If ia footway/path has a "no trespassing" sign, use access=private instead. access=no is used when the footway/path is barricaded (and no one can pass through that barricade). |
|
| No bugzilla | you can use trac.openstreetmap.org, that *our* version of bugzilla, or something like that. |
|
| abandoned no more | What else is new? The buildings have a different shade. Or have a different color altogether (from chocolate-ish brown to something close to a mixture of gray, brown and black). |
|
| How to change Google Maps to OSM globally | it may not work at first, but once you press the refresh/reload button after doing that (adding the line for the /etc/hosts file), the map transforms - from the Google one to the OSM one. Sometimes, the layers (and transitioning) are a bit different from what you might expect. Other than that, good job. |
|
| A lot of new contributors in the Philippines | I've welcomed a new mapper named "Pufferfish". Gave him some tips, and invited him to join the mailing list. It's a good start, that's for sure. Maybe we need to make a "survey" for our new mappers. |
