As always: thanks for all the work on JOSM! But for remote control at https: neither with Iceweasel 24.4.0 nor Chromium 33.0.1750.152 Debian jessie/sid (256984) the [Edit]-button on osm.org does open the area shown in JOSM. (Yes, I’ve set JOSM as default editor in my profile).

My best so far were seven house numbers in one go. Apart from that I try to memorize the all kinds of new/changed things to map them.

@ TomH: There is still a list of some hundred quite old spam users at the wiki: osm.wiki/Spam

@ Andi: The link to your diary entry has a 0 too much.

Regarding “Make it dead easy to use OSM in Websites”:

To people who mainly want to link their business on/with a map I recommend http://www.openlinkmap.org/.
When the business mapped contains a phone number, opening hours or a website it shows up on that map (iirc).
Now they just have to click their business, click [HTML-Code] and copy the latter (from the box at the left side) to their website.

Thank you for doing so.
I post now and then this kind of small statistics to keep people aware of that kind of income for OSM and hopefully get some more interested.

Please remember that the change in JOSM is quite recent. Before the default behaviour was also combining the tags.
Also it isn’t said that every Potlatch user uses the expert mode. :)

I added your keys to the github issue mentioned above. I skipped name, access and cycleway since for the first two could (imo) quite some false positives show up (haven’t checked the data about this); cycleway I had already listed.

Thanks for the hint.
I wasn’t aware that keepright is on github – the fact isn’t mentioned on keepright.at. I mailed the author already but also will open an issue now: https://github.com/keepright/keepright/issues/22

(just for the record)
As I asked a very similar question in April 2010¹ the general statement was:
“What for? Either I have been recording logs on my own and can use logs existing at OSM to average my own tracks - or I wouldn’t bother/try to map foreign logs at all.”

It sais:
Is there a tool to search for uploaded GPS traces near which no way has been mapped? Such a thing would be handy – best with links to JOSM/Potlatch to edit.

Sounds good for me, too.

In case you have a GPS device you can do photomapping. That is my most often practiced way of collecting data for OSM.

Einiges - sogar bei dir (zumindest zeitlich) altem Hasen. ^^

@ RM87: it is

Finally reported it: osm.wiki/Spam

A link to /mentioning of the data’s license would be helpful, to begin with.

Welcome to OSM!
Hopefully you add some of the places you traveled but don’t exist in OSM so far. :)

happy mapping

Zu stillgelegen Bahnhöfen:
Da es keine Bahnhöfe mehr sind, kann man railway=station im Prinzip löschen. Ich ändere es lieber in disused:railway=station.
Wenn man nur disused=yes an das Objekt schreibt, kann das zum Einen mehrdeutig sein (z.B. am Bahnhofsgebäude), zum anderen wird das Tag nirgends ausgewertet. Dementsprechend findet man die so “stillgelegten” Bahnhöfe unerwünschterweise weiterhin in allen Anwendungen.

Das Bahnhofsgebäude kann natürlich weiterhin mit building=train_station gemappt werden.

I just thought you mistakenly wrote hu instead of hr, but nvm :)
