piebro/osm-data huggingface dataset:
btwhite92 (2018-03-06 22:25:20+00:00): Alleghany still does not come close to meeting the definition for "place=town" as it is not by any stretch of the imagination "an important urban centre larger than a village and smaller than a city". The 2010 census lists 58 people living in Alleghany. Even if you were to double both the population and the amount of services available in Alleghany, it would still slot squarely into 'place=hamlet', defined as "A smaller rural community, typically with fewer than 100-200 inhabitants, and few infrastructure." Even Truckee just barely makes the cutoff for 'place=town', and it is larger than nearly all the towns (how you and I say, not the tag) within this changeset boundary combined.

My suspicion is that your motivation for this tagging choice is to see the name labels show up on lower zoom levels of the map (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tagging_for_the_renderer). If this is the case I can certainly sympathize, because the standard renderer is biased towards dense areas and significantly under-represents most of rural USA even when tags are used correctly. However, this is a problem with the renderer, not with the tagging or database itself. If this is the case for you, I would consider proposing some ideas to the osm-carto group: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto.

If you don't like the name scheme for the 'place' tags or the way they are applied in the U.S. (also legitimate issues with OSM that I share), try starting a thread for discussion on the Talk-us (https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us) or Tagging (https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging) mailing lists. Many of the most experienced and knowledgeable OSM contributors actively read and post on these lists, and would be more than happy to debate about these issues. 

In either case, applying tags vastly out of the consensual norms for their use will simply see these changes reversed, if not be me, then by someone else eventually.
NorCalRoads (2018-03-06 23:04:15+00:00): You see, I do not like to assign genuinely populated places labels any lesser than "village" because for some stupid reason hamlets do not show up on the map. As such, I am willing to concede and let the towns be changed to villages, but I will allow you to take care of that because I still see Alleghany as a town no matter what the tag definition says.
btwhite92 (2018-03-07 00:03:44+00:00): I would encourage you to search for a pending ticket, or open an issue ticket yourself on https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto regarding that issue if you feel it is a problem. Hamlets *do* render on osm-carto, but only at high zoom level. Maybe you can make a case for lower level rendering. However, this is also a GIS database not just for northern California, but for the entire world, and I suspect most people will argue that a town of 60 people is not significant enough to be shown at low zoom. If every settlement of population greater than 50 was shown at low zoom, the map would be completely cluttered with name labels.
NorCalRoads (2018-03-07 01:11:46+00:00): A) I can open an issue ticket all I want, we both know that they're not actually going to change anything.
B) Hamlets might as well not render because the you have to zoom in unreasonably far for them to.
C) You don't seem to understand the fact of relativity. If there is a town of 50 people in a county of 20,000 some-odd person towns, then the town of 50 is not a town. But in a county where the county seat has 200 people and the largest town has 680, a town of 50 is much more significant by comparison. Also, despite its low population, Alleghany is regionally important - it is am important hub for gold mining and is home to Forest Service utilities, road maintenance yards, and the only restaurant and post office for 30 miles every direction. The concept of a community's size is solely based on the comparison with those around it.
D) I live here. I know the importance of my town. Do you?
NorCalRoads (2018-03-07 01:17:48+00:00): I will change them to hamlets. Good enough?
btwhite92 (2018-03-07 17:34:36+00:00): I'm only asking that you try to stick to established tagging guidelines, when they exist, in the context that this project is first and foremost a global geospatial database, and a slippy map second. Smudging things here and there so it shows up a bit better on the slippy map corrupts the consistency of the data. 

More practically, I personally wouldn't have a problem with some of the more important towns that act as service hubs for the area being 'village's but tagging them as 'town's is (in my opinion) obviously incorrect given the definitions in the tagging guidelines. But, you are always free to tag as you wish and I will respect your decisions since you know the area much better than I do.
glglgl (2018-03-01 14:32:34+00:00): What would be the correct boundary? Because without a boundary, this relation is quite pointless.
muralito (2018-03-06 15:34:37+00:00): Boundary restored.

Juan, lo mejor es modificar el limite al correcto, no borrarlo y no dejar nada que es peor.

Se você está mapeando por causa do Pokémon, dê uma olhada em https://blog.openstreetmap.org/2017/12/01/dicas-para-novos-mapeadores-pokemon-go/?lang=pt-pt

Também temos um portal brasileiro sobre o OpenStreetMap, com várias informações úteis em https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Brasil

Enquanto você está se acostumando com o OpenStreetMap, é recomendado que sempre pergunte aos usuários mais experientes antes de remover ou modificar objetos do mapa, especialmente aqueles que são aparentemente "estranhos" ou "fora do lugar".

Além disso, pedimos que não copie dados de mapas proprietários (como nomes de ruas do Google Maps, por exemplo) e que mapeie apenas o que existe na realidade.

Se tiver qualquer tipo de dúvida você pode entrar em contato com a comunidade brasileira através de algum dos canais disponíveis em https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Pt:Contact
O canal "Comunidade" do Telegram costuma ser o mais movimentado.

Abraço e boa diversão com suas edições!

abejorro34 (2018-03-04 23:27:16+00:00): Ahoj, moc se mi tyhle změny nezdají, třeba přes „kvarcitové moře“ z Hadí hory určitě nemůže vést žádná cesta, protože tam jsou obrovské bloky hornin. Možná je to způsob, jak si zkrátit cestu a vyhnout se lesu, ale cesta tam určitě nevede. Ta cesta kousek na jih odtud, která u Bratrství krosí potok, mi taky nepřijde reálná.

sac_scale=mountain_hiking
trail_visibility=bad
GOwin (2018-02-26 00:27:00+00:00): Hello @Gerald Gomez

I recently noticed your contributions to OpenStreetMap (OSM). Thank you! Kudos for using OpenStreetMap's to create a better map of your community. 

I noticed that you've been adding a lot of housenumbers. Do you know that there's a convenient app for that: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/KeypadMapper ?

If you have any questions at all, please feel free to get in touch. You might be doubtful about a particular tag, or would like to clarify their use. Or perhaps, you have ideas you want to flesh out  to improve your neighbourhood map. Or maybe  just want to know more about Openstreetmap.  

When you have a few minutes to spare, try the browser-based editor called iD, to edit the map of your community. You may find it quicker and easier if you need to update a lot of information on the map.

There's this concise tips page for Philippine contributors: https://telegra.ph/Awesome-OSM-Tips--Tricks-01-28

Also, find out the latest happenings, or interact with local contributors through these community channels: https://telegra.ph/OpenStreetMap-LoCo-channels-in-the-Philippines-02-15

Welcome and best regards, in behalf of the OSM contributors' community

way 138276625 - governor place has no physical tags now after amenity parking was removed. I have added landuse=residential to it, think that suits. ..
Mateusz Konieczny (2024-03-06 17:22:25+00:00): Hello! https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/533085177/history has vv=designated key that was added in this edit (if I checked things correctly)
What you intended to express by using this unusual key? Is this tag needed? Or maybe can it be expressed in a more typical way that would be easier to understand?
Jakka (2018-02-24 10:44:27+00:00): Attention this musea was already on the map. I deleted your edit.
