Thanks for the clarification. One of those cases where it's easier to re-start from scratch?

That's a lot of deleted objects to be covered by a meaningless changeset comment. What are you trying to do here?

Thanks for spotting and fixing that.

Thanks for spotting this and updating the map. Unfortunately, you deleted the whole building, rather than just removing the tags relating to the café. I have reinstated the building, changing the tags for the business to:
disused:amenity=cafe
old_name=Pink Lemonade

Using a lifecycle prefix like disused:* rather than deleting an object preserves its edit history and also means that tools like StreetComplete will periodically prompt users to check whether the premises are still vacant.

Alternatively, you could have tagged it as area:highway=footway rather than highway=footway + area=yes. There's already a linear highway=footway, so the area surrounding it doesn't need to be routable.

area:highway=footway

Something flickering in StreetComplete doesn't seem like a justification to delete it.

If they're visible in aerial or street side imagery, adding access=private might be better.

When objects are deleted because they're private, there's always the chance that they'll be added again from imagery, without any tags to indicate that they're private.

Please could you point me to where this mechanical edit was discussed?

Thanks - I meant to take a walk down there and check, but never got around to it.

Please don't add nonsense to the map.

Please use a meaningful changeset comment.

Please use a meaningful changeset comment.

Please don't add fiction to the map. There is not a branch of McDonald's on the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf or a small forest in China.

Please use meaningful changeset comments.

Please confine the geographical extent of your edits to an area which does not spam continents.

Thanks for updating this. I've changed it to disused:amenity=toilets

Using a tag like closed=yes is generally considered unhelpful, as it effectively negates the main tag.

The grass area is clearly part of James Clavell Square, so the extent of relation/15926523 is clearly too small. It's quite hard to determine the correct extent of the square, even if you've actually been there:
1) The available open data from Ordnance Survey only includes a point in OS Open Names, on the side of thee grass area and Building 45. That suggests it should be extended to the edges of Building 45 and Building 18.
2) It is not mentioned at all on the Royal Arsenal Riverside maps placed around the development by Berkeley Homes, which is unhelpful.
3) Actual street signs naming it appear to be absent.
4) Known postal addresses of premises use No 1 Street, not James Clavell Square.

I'll review it again next time I go there.

Re: fixme about the purpose of the building by the lake in Beckton District Park (way/41151618) - it was a café and toilets, disused for years.

Thanks for updating this, but please don't remove the building=* tag unless the building has actually gone.
