Hi,

Regarding Jack in the Box at 3402 Mangum Road: this had been added on the building outline and marked as disused from my survey. (I work near this area and come through here frequently for other reasons.) This is NOT a currently active Jack in the Box location (they are terrible about keeping their list of locations current). Please be more mindful of possible duplicates in the future.

Yes, MapWithAI does throw an occasional "bum steer" out there but the vast majority of times it's good data that only needs relatively minor adjustments.

I think blowing away hundreds of buildings that were added almost three years ago without even trying to contact the original mapper (me) was a rather poor way to handle this. If you see specific buildings that are bad, by all means delete/redraw. Also, since it has been a couple of years, it's possible that the data has gone stale just like any other addition to the map, and that's why you are seeing buildings that no longer match what is on the imagery.

Also, this changeset was almost three years old. Why are you just now deciding to revert it out of the blue?

Again, look at the source, this was a MapWithAI edit not an import.

This was an edit using MapWithAI, not an import. If there is something specifically wrong with the data I added, tell me and I can make sure it gets fixed.

Hi,

Welcome to OpenStreetMap! Please note the following for future edits:
1. Changeset comments are nofollow meaning they will not be indexed by search engines. Putting ad copy in changeset comments is thus pointless.
2. Addresses on OpenStreetMap are not abbreviated.
3. opening_hours is *not* a free form text field, it has a specific format intended to be both machine- and human-readable, documented in the wiki.
4. Phone numbers should be in international format.
5. The description tag is not for ad copy/spam.

I have fixed the issues noted in your recent edit.

Please clarify what you mean by this?

An area for the whole complex should be made, and assigned the address (if the whole complex shares the same address). JOSM has a preset for this.

Please do not add things like fixme tags to obvious vandalism, that just makes the problem that much harder to clean up. It is being dealt with.

Hi,

In the future please be more careful when adding buildings. Many of your additions overlapped existing building outlines.

Has the building been demolished? If not the building outline shouldn't be removed, just the tags identifying Arrow Industrial Equipment and its business.

Hi,

Please note that in OSM data, street names should not be abbreviated (i.e. "River Oaks Boulevard", not "River Oaks Blvd").

78948379 over 1 year ago

Hi,

Please note for future reference: way/78948379 was a self-intersecting way at the time of this edit. JOSM's validator will throw a warning for this; at minimum the highway should be split so that it does not loop back upon itself (originally it did at node/6816782006).

Hi,

I noticed a lot of stores added with the tag shop=yes. This tag no longer renders in the default Carto layer on OSM and is considered deprecated as there is always a more specific and helpful value that can be tagged instead.

I have gone through this entire shopping center just now and changed most if not all of these outdated tags. Some of them may be wrong or not the best fit (I did my best at research given I am not local to the area), but at least the names and the existence of a shop will now be more visible.

Hi,

When adding a oneway tag please be sure there are no tags specific to two-way roads such as lanes:backward or lanes:forward (among many others). JOSM's validator will flag this as a warning because for a one-way segment those tags no longer make sense. Thanks!

Hi,

Please note that service_times has a specific syntax and is not a free form text field. Please refer to: service_times=* and in turn opening_hours=*

sources should also have included: MapWithAI; microsoft/BuildingFootprints

Hi, and welcome to OpenStreetMap. We welcome contributions made in good faith, however note the following:

1. Changeset comments are nofollow. All you did with that rubbish/ad copy was wave a huge red flag with the words "I'm spamming" on it.
2. Street addresses are not abbreviated on OSM, we spell out the full street name i.e. "West 41st Street"
3. opening_hours has a specific format (intended to be both human- and machine-readable) clearly documented on the wiki and visible by example on e.g. the Kroger or Petsmart on West 43rd Street among others.

147311750 almost 2 years ago

Hi,

Please be aware of the specific syntax required by opening_hours and related tags. I have updated the information to fix the issues introduced in this edit.

No idea why the changeset comment was empty. Every Door bug?
