Hi Beatrice Jones,

This is following up from https://www.openstreetmap.org/user_blocks/802 .

In there I mentioned that you were adding objects to OpenStreetMap from an out-of-date data source (objects that don’t exist currently, such as “The American Adventure”, near Heanor). I mentioned https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/33802064 and https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/33809000 as places where other mappers have tried to get in touch, but you still haven’t explained what happened there.

Since then you are apparently adding more things that don’t exist to OpenStreetMap - https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/33976849 .

Please, before making any more changes to OpenStreetMap, add a reply to the changeset discussions explaining that you made a mistake and won’t add non-existing data again. You can see which changesets other mappers have left comments on by looking at the list at https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/beatrice jones/history .

When you do start editing again, please only add things that currently exist in their current use (i.e. if something was an airport but is no longer, don’t add it to OSM as an airport). Also, please make sure that you always add a changeset comment to each change, so that other local mappers understand the changes being made.

If you don’t do these things you may be prevented from editing OpenStreetMap again.

Best Regards,

Andy Townsend (SomeoneElse) on behalf of OpenStreetMap’s Data Working Group. To contact the Data Working Group at any time, email data@osmfoundation.org .
