Hi!
Please review 5 roads with highway=R
in this changeset. I assume you meant residential?
Why do you add import=yes to these ways? If these ways are from an import, you should mention the source of this import instead or additional to Digital Globe. In this case I assume you just use copy+paste for new ways like this

Hello Gerd.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I corrected the misspelling.

Thanks,
Kurt

I learned now that you work for the "AI-Assisted Road Tracing" project. My understanding of the wiki page is that you should not tag each way with source=* and import=yes but instead use these tags for the changeset. I think this would be much better.

Hi GerdP,
Thank you for following up! Based on initial feedback for this import we decided to tag each way created by our team mainly because of community requests. Having each way tagged also makes the process more transparent so the community can quickly give us detailed feedback if needed.
Best,
Kurt

Hi Kurt,
your wiki page was recently changed to match this tagging, but I don't see where this was discussed. Some mappers in Germany (including myself) are very unhappy with this and you risk reverts by DWG. See also https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/imports/2017-October/005188.html

Hi GerdP,
We are sorry that you are upset and have responded to the import list question. We hope you understand we are trying to have more transparency by tagging every element.
Best,
Kurt
