Hi, noticed you are adding sidewalk tags to some footways.

We have a local definion for sidewalk
(that coincides with global definition) as a footway that runs PARALLEL and immediately next to the car road.
So some of those footways you tag as sidewalk, like the one in this changeset, shouldn't be tagged as such.

It should be tagged as `highway=footway` and optionally should also have surface, width and winter_service tags.

If you have any questions feel free to join our local OSM Slack channel: https://www.osmcanada.ca/about.html

I add these driveways to connect sidewalk to the road to allow better routing for pedestrians and wheelchair users by connecting that north-side sidewalk to Wilkie drive in this case.
Ideally would be great to map all driveways but that's a lot of work. Maybe one day...

Yes, feel free to change it to `paving_stones`.
I guess from imagery it looked more like asphalt to me.

Hi,
Good job on mapping the golf course. Love your attention to details.
One thing though, "highway=service" should not be mapped as an area. It will break a lot of maps and routing engines.
Just mapping it as a "highway=path" way with "golf_cart=designated" tag is the most common practice. You can also add "width" and "surface=fine_gravel" tags.

Here's golf mapping wiki (in case you haven't seen it): leisure=golf_course

Hi. I had to revert several of your latest "rue-street" changesets because that's not how name tag is supposed to be used. For bilingual accommodation OSM uses name:fr tag. So if your browser/phone has french locale set you'd see french name without any "street" in it.
If you rename all streets to "Rue [Name] Street" it would make any search on the map close to impossible so it's a very bad idea.

Why should I? Nothing wrong with replacing existing geometry with new one, especially when existing geometry is of lower quality.

Anyway, I don't have time for that. Do as you like.

Uhh no. I loaded the square from task manager, merged my data, connected sidewalks to roads and as I was uploading the data I got conflicts. After synchronizing the dataset I saw your sidewalks and had to merge/delete them to proceed (since most of my sidewalks were already uploaded). You can check my history.
I wasn't even aware you were working on sidewalks in Gatineau before seeing those conflicts.

Anyway, you can use task manager to avoid this in the future: http://tasks.osmcanada.ca/project/177

It was not mass-deletion.

I had to delete/merge some of your sidewalks because we were working on the same area at the same time and after uploading I had to resolve multiple conflicts. I cleaned up and fixed everything and then you came in and reverted it all back.

Your revert did more damage than repair as it deleted multiple sidewalks on other streets that weren't replacing your sidewalks in the process.

Care to elaborate?

Hi Danny,
Any reason why you are deleting perfectly good mapillary tags like this one for retiremement residence?

Split the trail. Let me know if there are issues.

Hi, you assigned `drive-through=yes` tag to one of the corners of Burger King building instead of the building itself.

Noticed you tagged some houses on Norton avenue as building=apartments. Any particular reason?

thanks, fixed.

Hi,
I'm reviewing your edits - everything looks great but I'm wondering what's with the changeset comments?
Comments should include summary of your edits, not a list of computer games.
See some guidelines: osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments
Cheers. Keep up the great work.

Please don't snap park boundaries to roads. It's local community practice, as well as global OSM consensus. See more information here: osm.wiki/Editing_Standards_and_Conventions
Thanks.

Hi, you should go through your recent changesets and correct "healthcare=alternativ" to "healthcare=alternative". Thanks.

`highway=mini_roundabout` has its use but this is clearly not a mini roundabout.

Could you provide the source of the dataset?

Hmm. Changing it to route=foot or route=hiking would probably require some discussion on talk_ca mailing list.
Not sure what to do, maybe change bicycle=no to bicycle=dismount tag on those trails.
Do what you think is right.
BTW, TCT was renamed to "The Great Trail". So maybe that needs updating too.
