Hello and welcome to OpenStreetMap!

This project is about mapping the world as it actually exists - we’re very grateful for all of the Pokemon players who’ve added unmapped footpaths parks and water features in the last few days, especially in places in the world where there aren’t many “on the ground” OpenStreetMap editors.

Some people, however, have been making questionable edits, and your changes such as https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/48570568 seem to fall into that category. If you want your edits to stay in OpenStreetMap, please only map things that actually exist.

Also, adding names like “Shithart Lane” is not only a misrepresenation of the “on the ground” truth but also offensive.

If you continue to add fake or offensive things to OpenStreetMap you’ll be prevented from editing it in the future. Note that if you’re in the UK you might also be violating the law in doing so.

Best Regards,
Frederik Ramm
on behalf of OpenStreetMap’s Data Working Group
