I have restored the splits to the roundabout and kept the circularisation.

I can go through and revert the merge if that will help.

The other reasons for splitting roundabouts is lane count and destination, and occasionally turn restrictions.

Hi
I have changed these to public footpaths as they have been dedicated as footpaths on the basis it is a simpler process.

It is likely that the bridleway people will now apply for them to be upgraded as bridleways, so will monitor events.

Hi, just wondering why you have been merging roundabouts into single ways?

This and others I have looked at had been split to correctly model the paths taken by bus routes. These changes need to be undone to restore the routes correctly.

If you need any help doing this then please ask.

My observations of amazon edits are leading me to believe that the GPS is not connected to the vehicle, but is contained in the handheld unit on which the driver ask the recipient to sign.

When making edits based on gps traces please consider the the driver may have been walking for the last part of the trace.

In this case it is highly likely that the trace through the schoolyard was on foot.

Hi, this edit has gone a bit wrong.

There is no residential road here, it is a path.

What sources were you using to make this edit?

Hi
What does barrier=yes mean here?

Hi, this series of edits have gone a little wrong.
way/690693195 is clearly not a residential road, but a service driveway leading to a single property.

way/690693194 creates routeable link through a farmyard which is very obviously not a public right of way and should be tagged as access=private.

One of the pitfalls of mass edits is that often objects which are unintendted get changed. Discussion with the community can avoid many such issues.

Such as node/6141262678 which is a bus stop, but is now vegan.

Is Greggs Bar now vegan?
node/5212585328

Is this convienience shop now vegan?
node/5214536527

Hi, please could you explain where this, and your other mass edits were discussed?

See osm.wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct

Also did you seek permission to use your claimed source, which is copyright.

It would have been polite to have at least discussed yhis with the UK community on the talk-gb mailing list.

I am also not convinced this is permanent in all outlets. On first glance this did seem to be a joke, have you ever been to Greggs?

I believe this, and other similar mass edits.

Hi Karmsudi
I did not revert this.

The gps trace is likely to be correct, but the assumption that it is a trace from driving was the mistake. There is a footway here, please use the trace to create a highway=footway here.

Thanks Phil

Hi, just wondering why you have removed the private tags from this service road?

In my local knowledge access=private was incorrect, this is a public footpath, however it should be motor_vehicle=private.

Hi, this edit has gone a little wrong.

For example way/653267745/history was tagged as suface=ashphalt, however you have changed it to simply paved which has lost more detailed information. Is there a reason you believe this to be better?

Paved should only be used if you really have no other information. A cycleway in Shrewsbury is unlikely to be unpaved hence adding paved does not really add any useful information. From my experience all the road following cycleways are ashphalt.

Hi, this edit has gone a little wrong.

Please stop and think when assuming that residential roads are missing. It is very unlikely that the mapper who mapped this area would have missed a public road.

This is a private shared driveway.
1. It is not shown in OS Opendata Streetview.
2. Imagery clearly shows that the pavement is crossed.

Hi, for access within Portmerion I would have gone with customers rather than private.

Cheers Phil

Not necessarily totally wrong, the imagery indicates a footpath may be here.

Was there a GPS trace here?

What I suspect may have happened is that the GPS receiver is in the handheld device which the driver carries and the customer 'signs'. The driver walked through the footpath, rather than drive around.

The presence of a GPS trace therefore does not always indicate the route taken by a vehicle.

Hi, this edit has gone a little wrong.
It is very unlikley that the mapper who surveyed this area would have missed a public road.
Imagery suggests that this is a private shared driveway, for example the pavement on Crowdale Road is crossed and this is not shown on OS OpenData.

Hi, this edit has gone very wrong.
It is highly unlikely that the mappers who have previously surveyed and mapped this are would have missed a road that cannot be seen on imagery.

What evidence/souces have you used to determine that a road exists here?

Thank you.

If you are working as part of directed/organised editing you should comply with https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/6/62/Organised_Editing_Guidelines.pdf

There should be a description, and link to the wiki page in your profile.
