Hi, great to see you're woking on improving the map in Imereti.
I'm just wondering - did you change all the highway=road tags to highway=residential? What was the reason/basis for this? It surely wasn't local knowledge as some of those highways definitely aren't residential, but just some cattle tracks or narrow paths along a ridge. This can seriously mess up navigation. I was hiking on https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/538295134 today and nearly got lost because I was expecting a residential road. I changed this one to path now, but many others surely remain. If someone was acutally driving a vehicle there, there would be no way for them to get out.
I'd kindly like to ask you to be more careful with such blanket edits in the future.

The same goes for the northern Vertkvichala area - do you really know which of those roads are residential and which are just paths for cattle? I surely can't make it out from the aerial images, which is why I classified them as highway=road. Have you been there?

Hi there! Thanks for the feedback! And sorry for any trouble this may have caused. I was going off OSM policy and saw that the road was untagged and I had changed them to residential because that looked to be consistent with the other areas around Georgia that I have seen. I see your point changing them to path and I will be sure to keep that in mind in the future, thanks.
