| Changeset | When | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| 65791020 | almost 7 years ago | If you're editing in Spokane County, I recommend using Esri World Imagery. It's far sharper than DigitalGlobe Premium, and nearly as new (I think the difference is only a few weeks). |
| 65724492 | almost 7 years ago | I've changed "Tolido" to a "locality", which should remove it from the address-lookup system. |
| 65724492 | almost 7 years ago | It looks to me like Otis Orchards is already mapped, a bit to the southeast of where you've placed it. |
| 65548976 | about 7 years ago | I don't know about Reese Technology Center or the farm in Spain, but Mountain View Cemetery was tagged as "boundary=administrative" because the cemetery is a disconnected part of Davenport. |
| 65541616 | about 7 years ago | Was removing "surface=asphalt" from the south end of Iron Court intentional? |
| 65554651 | about 7 years ago | As far as I know, the U-District bridge was designed, advertised, and intended as a pedestrian bridge. Yes, bicycles are permitted, but that doesn't make it a cycleway. |
| 65538097 | about 7 years ago | #please-edit-in-smaller-pieces-or-use-a-meaningful-changeset-commment #or-both :) |
| 65461456 | about 7 years ago | Is this actually in use for commercial purposes? I'm not seeing anything that looks like commercial buildings, or even commercial construction, in last week's Sentinel imagery. |
| 65296511 | about 7 years ago | On the subject of software not displaying things properly, I'm currently 0 for 9 on web browsers showing this changeset discussion as intended (Seamonkey on Gentoo Linux comes close, but the flag more closely resembles that of the Netherlands than the intended rainbow flag). Email clients are currently 0 for 4 at displaying comment notifications, with Gmail on Firefox/MacOS coming closest ([white flag] [rainbow between two clouds] = primary). That's a lot of software we'd need to fix before this could even be considered for use. |
| 65296511 | about 7 years ago | Even Unicode-aware programs can fail to handle emoji correctly, since they're combining characters outside the Basic Multilingual Plane. JOSM on Linux shows the tag as a black-and-white scribble, while viewing a dump of the changeset in a text editor shows the scribble plus a black-and-white flag. For that matter, programs that handle emoji correctly can have problems. I came across this changeset while trying to figure out why a bunch of stuff had been tagged as "[flag of the Netherlands]=primary". I'm now reasonably sure it's supposed to be "[rainbow flag]=primary", but when the flag was shrunk for display, the color bands got merged to produce red-white-blue. |
| 65299166 | about 7 years ago | Do people call it this, rather than something like the "West Richland Post Office" or the "Van Giesen Post Office"? Is the name actually on the building somewhere? If neither of these is true, it should probably go in the "official_name" field rather than the "name" field. |
| 65251265 | about 7 years ago | As far as I know, this ramp meter is still merely proposed. |
| 65225957 | about 7 years ago | Standard practice is to only add a name to the school building if it's different from what's on the school grounds. |
| 65216649 | about 7 years ago | I don't think "level crossing" is the correct tag for a railroad that runs down the middle of the street the way the WIM Industrial Spur does in Palouse. |
| 65134881 | about 7 years ago | All but the oldest imagery shows this as being used for RV storage. When it comes to mapping land use, "who owns it" doesn't matter as much as "what it's used for". |
| 65106795 | about 7 years ago | When you're building landuse multipolygons, please don't include city-limit lines as part of those multipolygons. It makes it very difficult to adjust things if the usage changes, or if a mistake was made. |
| 65057446 | about 7 years ago | This was still closed last Sunday when I drove by. Has that changed? |
| 65021693 | about 7 years ago | #WatchYourNodeDrags Seriously. In addition to whatever you were doing in Africa, you moved an administrative boundary in Ireland and dragged an intersection in San Francisco to a point several blocks away. |
| 64986200 | about 7 years ago | You did a couple of what are called "node drags" here: you accidentally pulled an intersection across the map, leaving a tangle of roads behind. I've fixed them, but it's something to watch out for in the future. |
| 64965580 | about 7 years ago | The general principle of OpenStreetMap is that we map what is there, not what used to be there, what is going to be there, or what someone wishes was there. If the jetty is there but the railroad used to build it isn't, we map the jetty but not the railroad. The main exception to this is if something has left obvious traces. For example, in one of the areas I hike, there's a strip of decaying asphalt and two bridge abutments. Since it's still obvious where a road used to run, I've mapped it as an abandoned road and a demolished bridge. |
