Dear user trousperdu,

I have removed a few bogus names from your land.

We only use the “name” tag to describe the name that something has. For example, a road may be named “Chemin de Gaubert” - but a path is never named “Trousperdu aerodrome access path”. That is a DESCRIPTION, not a NAME. (Same for “Maison Trousperdu”.) Also, if you do not know the name of something, do not put a question mark as the name - simply do not add any name at all.

It is also unnecessary to tag your web site URL and Wifi details onto every object on your land.

If you want to make a map of your place where you alone decide what to show, use umap.openstreetmap.fr - this gives you souvereignty about what is shown. But if you add data to OpenStreetMap then you need to follow our rules, and a land owner cannot simply name random features on their land, or create bogus “race tracks” that have no representation on the ground.

Please follow these rules or your account will be suspended.

Best regards
