I like that you add photos
Hjart (2015-08-21 16:56:53+00:00): One changeset in Marstal and another in Germany would be preferable. This one is a quite big and thus harder to check.
CaptainCrunch (2015-08-21 21:00:31+00:00): Sorry, I often forget to nicely split my edits. I made a new changeset after the edits near Rostock, but forgot to do so for Marstal/Wismar.
SomeoneElse (2015-10-26 14:17:40+00:00): Oops - something has gone a bit wrong with http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/366730621/history (either in this changeset or with a previous one that this way was split from).  Is this bit lit or not?  It's currently "yes; no".
zarl (2016-06-03 15:40:31+00:00): Hi Anoniman,

die Querung für Radfahrer und Fussgänger am Harras https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/366737395 hat bisher nicht geroutet, denn der Node https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3707215807 hatte keine Verbindung zu einem weiteren Weg. Ich fixe das rasch...
escada (2016-08-10 03:38:46+00:00): Hallo Eebie,

Ik zag dat je de kerk in de Groenstraat te Hoeselt: Sint-Lambertus hebt genoemd. Volgens wikipedia is dit de Onze-Lieve-Vrouw Middelareskerk (zie https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onze-Lieve-Vrouwparochie). De Sint-Lambertuskerk ligt in de Dorpsstraat) (zie https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sint-Stephanuskerk_(Hoeselt) ). Wie heeft er nu gelijk ? :-)
escada (2016-08-10 03:49:27+00:00): Oeps, ik bedoel dat je ze Sint-Stephanuskerk hebt genoemd en die ligt in de Dorpsstraat.

Sint-Lambertus ligt in Alt-Hoeselt.
Eebie (2016-08-10 21:46:09+00:00): Ik heb me toen vergist.
Het is ondertussen gecorrigeerd.
escada (2016-08-11 03:01:57+00:00): Ok, bedankt!
robert (2015-08-21 18:12:07+00:00): Did you mean to delete "Silver Road" (http://ris.dev.openstreetmap.org/oslmusicalchairs/map?osl_id=671645) in this changeset? It is in the middle of a building site so I guess it may well not exist any more...
Fradeve11 (2015-08-22 15:07:24+00:00): It was straight in the middle of the construction site, I can clearly see from my window that it isn't there anymore :)
robert (2015-08-22 16:45:32+00:00): Cool.
ndm (2015-08-20 22:17:16+00:00): Good to see some more builings being added. Shop, pub and other way outllines still need "building=yes" otherwise they won't render.
DaveF (2015-08-21 09:06:57+00:00): Hi
I deleted the relations you created. They're not really required in this instance - ways can be overlaid, & it's difficult to to see things such as the playground if hidden in a relation.

bigbug21 (2015-09-03 14:42:22+00:00): Hallo Jacob,
danke für deine engagiertes Mapping der aktuellen Änderungen im Herzen Stuttgarts. Ich habe gerade den zweiten mit dem Changeset eingeführten Kelchfuß herausgenommen. Es gibt definitiv nur einen, bei der anderen Maßnahme handelt es sich um einen Bau der SSB.
Viele Grüße
Peter
Jacob's-Staff (2015-09-03 21:39:53+00:00): Kein Problem - mich würde dann nur noch interessieren, was genau die SSB (macht mehr Sinn an dieser Stelle) mit diesem Konstrukt macht bzw. ist das bedeutsam für OSM? Mir persönlich kam der Standort/Form auch etwas merkwürdig vor, da es aber von der DB-Hotline hieß: "...es gäbe am Budapester Platz/Nähe zur Baustraße auch noch einen weiteren 'Probebau'... " bin ich von diesem ausgegangen. Gut das kann ja auch ein DB-Versehen sein - bei so einem großen Bauprojekt ist man ja auch nicht über alles bis in kleinste Detail informiert und vielleicht habe ich den armen Menschen auch schon allzu sehr ausgefragt.
bigbug21 (2015-09-05 07:59:56+00:00): Keine Ahnung, was die SSB dort machen, aber eine Maßnahme von S21 ist es offenbar nicht. Das hat auch die Bauinformation der DB eindeutig bestätigt.
GerdP (2015-10-16 07:05:06+00:00): bitte prüfen:

vovan__l (2015-09-01 19:36:47+00:00): Привіт. Дуже хотілось би дізнатись,що ви хотіли пояснити цим "коментом" іншим мапперам,а також що ви вживаєте перед тим як таке пишете.
Husim (2015-09-01 19:41:00+00:00): Притензии к пакету правок есть? ;) )))) ЗЫ На самом деле это было набрано просто от скуки (юмор такой)
vovan__l (2015-09-01 19:56:01+00:00): Претензії,...Наталії Власенко,Панфілова  де статусні частини? На будинках 22,24 навиворіт -  Власенко Наталії ??? "Юмор" зрозумілою вам мовою "убогий". Коменти тут не для розваги.
Husim (2015-09-01 20:17:52+00:00): Власенко Натальи/Натальи Власенко я поменять не мог, если и поменял, то вероятно в процессе объединения 2х кусков оно склеело так (если не понятно, то это означает, что косяк не мой). Просто потому, что оно мне нах не надо менять местами. ))) А улицы в домах положено через отношения делать. Панфилова я вообще не трогал. 
Больше тебе отвечать не буду!
Husim (2015-09-01 20:22:16+00:00): А ну да, и Власенко я не трогал :D Это если не ошибаюсь человек с ником маловар.
vovan__l (2015-09-01 20:34:40+00:00): Власенко Натальи/Натальи Власенко косяк не твій, я переглянув , але якщо там правив, то "Мальчик с феноменальной памятью" повинен був би додати слово "вулиця".     "А улицы в домах положено через отношения делать." - по перше є дві основні схеми тегування вулиць, а по друге "ты сам то понял чё сказал?"
   І тобі надобраніч.
vovan__l (2015-09-01 20:41:02+00:00): Можливо ти просто передвинув вей.Цього  достатньо для того щоб стати його автором, але крім того щоб різати, клеїти,двигати треба ще й читати що там написано.

Malc23 (2015-08-20 23:42:39+00:00): Changes to the map include Trail within the Hungry Valley State Vehicular Recreation Area. Deletions of an Unclassified Road that wanders across the terrain, and clean up of some tracks. then major tracks were added to the map from the SVRA maps, and Aerial imagery.
5m4u9 (2015-08-21 05:19:14+00:00): hola... gracias por añadir la info. Al parecer revisar la web la dirección indica en el centro de la ciudad, es real esa info? o la de aquí? o esta es la sucursal???

Tambien es posible añadir datos de telefonos, capacidad, servicios, horario de contacto, email, etc.

GOwin (2015-08-22 07:16:28+00:00): Hi Dondee. When digitizing buildings, make sure that you cover just the buildings themselves and not other areas or other buildings. Each building should be digitized and tagged separately.

Daghang salamat for keeping it up, and updating the POIs!
Skippern (2015-08-21 12:28:43+00:00): Fred, these two streams you deleted came from an import of official municipal data, what is the reason to delete them?
derFred (2015-08-21 13:35:42+00:00): 1. no beginning, no ending
2. waterway going uphill 
Have a look aroung the others :(
I you tell me that this import was correct, I revert it.
Skippern (2015-08-21 13:40:25+00:00): It was based on PMV data (Municipal Government of Vitoria), the original import from 2009 was somewhat misaligned, and I am working with newer data sets to realign data, unfortunately there is a lot to do, but it would be a help if even unaligned data could remain, so that I don't have to re-create all objects and to have reference to progress

There are parts of the waterway data that is not available in the PMV data set, for example how it passes in closed culverts through residential areas, etc, that part of the data need to be surveyed on the ground, or eventually imported from a later data set
derFred (2015-08-21 13:54:28+00:00): I will revert it ... have fun to correct wrong imports. I will talk with Peda, that he eliminates all Brasilian waterways from Maproulett.
derFred (2015-08-21 14:22:34+00:00): reverted :)
nebulon42 (2016-08-14 17:16:27+00:00): Eigentlich eine blöde Frage, aber bist du sicher, dass sich hier eine Wetterinfo des DWD befindet? Die Wetterstation ist nämlich weiter südlich bei der Kneippanlage.
boxngoselfstoragepanorama (2015-08-21 06:32:37+00:00): Box-n-Go Self Storage panorama city Moving Service secures your goods in sturdy, breathable moving containers that are 8 ft by 5 ft and 7 ft high. Each one holds 1 to 1½ rooms worth of goods. Our helpful service reps bring the moving containers to your door, placing them where it is most convenient for you (not us). We bring as many moving containers as you think you may need, but you will only pay for what you actually use. You take all the time you want to fill them; an hour, a day or a week - the point is to fit it into a schedule that works for you. A real boon in today's run a mile-a-minute world and a definite benefit over renting a truck.

Please ensure that you delete you added station so as to preserve history.
In adding the 2nd track you have ignored that there are 4 tracks through Wellington, I have added those.
At Donnington junction, how does a train get from the single line and travel west on the correct track?

I've taken some time to separate the new landuse=residential from the highway network here. Thank you

trigpoint (2015-08-22 20:04:33+00:00): Hi
You seem to have tagged Thorn Hill Road as access=no. That implies that nobody can use that road, even on foot. That seems to apply for then entire length, which makes access to the houses to the south impossible. Access is a legal tag, not physical.
Whilst the road may be unsuitable for road cars, it does not mean it is unsuitable for 4x4s, trail bikes and certainly not for walkers.
The road probably needs splitting where the surface changes and probably set the northern section to highway=track. That should prevent it being used for through routing whilst still allowing access to the campsite and for walkers.
TonySkent (2015-08-22 20:14:34+00:00): If you have a heavily modified 4x4 then, if you are brave enough , you can probably navigate this stretch of earth.  As for walkin the dog, unless you're into climbing,  this isn't for you.  It is known locally as 'Donkey Hill', a more appropriate name would be 'Mountain  goat hill'  seeing as you need the agility of said animal to navigate  it.  Every summer,  tourists get sent down here by sat navigation and every year we have to pick up gear boxes and other car components that fall of automobiles that try and use it. Please adjust accordingly.

Colin Smale (2015-11-27 22:01:10+00:00): sorry, I have changed this back as you have misunderstood the workings of admin boundaries in OSM. The Warwick boundary represents the town council which in legal terms is a civil parish council. The district council area should have an admin_level of 8. If you have any questions please get in touch.
tographer (2015-12-07 17:10:43+00:00): Hi Maarssen Mapper, thank you for your explanation of reverting the change I made.

Yes Warwick is a Civil Parish, but the Admin Boundary that this relation represents is for Warwick District. Warwick District contains a number of civil parishes, including the Civil Parish of Warwick itself.

Warwick Civil Parish is a Civil Parish in Warwick District which is one of five districts and boroughs in Warwickshire County.

The hierarchy therefore is CP, District, County.

Respectfully, I would maintain that the boundary described by this relation should be named Warwick District. I agree it should be Admin Level 8.

Hope this all makes sense.

Kind regards etc.
Colin Smale (2015-12-07 17:27:41+00:00): Hi there, thanks for responding. If I understand your position correctly, everything is now OK for you except you think the name on the admin_level=8 boundary should be "Warwick District" instead of plain "Warwick", am I right?
This is a bit of a controversial point. The suffix "District" can easily be derived from the admin level and official designation which identifies it as a non-metropolitan district (at least it should). Whether the name includes the "District" part or not varies across the country, but my preference is to exclude it as it can easily be reconstructed and it clutters the map without adding much that isn't obvious anyway.

Can you please include the actual IDs of the objects you are referring to? I am 99% sure there has never been any confusion in the OSM data between the CP and the district boundary, and if you can point me at the relation you mean, I will investigate the history and see what has been going on there.

Best regards,
Colin

PS: I have been looking after UK admin boundaries in OSM for many years so I am well aware of the hierarchy....
tographer (2015-12-07 17:35:52+00:00): Apologies Colin, didn't mean to take you to school on admin boundaries... so difficult to know who people are, where they're from and what they know on such a global open source project.

Yes, I think we are at the nub of it. Essentially it's the semantics of whether one should refer to a district as '[name] district' or just '[name]'.

I understand what you say about cluttering the map with unnecessary information that can be easily reconstructed.

Living in Warwick District I was simply trying to bring a little local knowledge to the map as it is definitely the case that Warwick District is referred to by its full name and designation locally. 

I wonder if this is more the local custom in instances where the district name is the same as the principal town of that district?

Respectfully,

Paul.
Colin Smale (2015-12-07 18:01:38+00:00): Hi Paul, don't worry, no offence taken!
The naming can get pretty messy sometimes, especially with parishes because of joint/grouped parishes, lands common, detached parts etc. The boundaries in OSM represent the areas of land, not the council which has been designated to govern it. It sounds silly, and usually it is indeed 1:1 but not always. So to keep the data correct, I prefer the neutral form, putting the name of the council in "council_name". Constituent parishes of a JPC can then be identified by the council name.
This is my page on UK boundary tagging in OSM; please let me know if you can suggest any improvements!
