Along with amending 'U' class roads, updating the wiki & searching for 'this road is signed' tags, it's on my list of things to do. If you think of anything else, please let me know.

Hi
You've move this building to an incorrect location:
way/547533403/history
Please don't assume the aerial imagery are current. This is a construction site. There are new buildings.
Please revert.

Could you please refrain from adding historic data to the OSM. You've previously been asked to remove your previous edits, which belong in OHM. I've started a discussion on Talk-GB https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2018-August/021751.html

Hi
relation/8507208

Historic boundaries don't belong in OSM, which is a database for current objects. If you wish to collate old data please transfer it to osm.wiki/Open_Historical_Map before removing it.

I'm struggling to comprehend 'historic' as "current".

TBH, I see your comments as self defeating. If they're "immutable" & "unaffected" over time, how come you're adding ways?

As this is a country wide endeavour has it been discussed on Talk-GB?

Which versions of OS maps? Are they on the NSL site?

Hi
Where are you obtaining your historic data?

From the historic wiki page
"historic objects should not be mapped as it is outside of scope of OSM"

Boundaries are amended regularly. What is the date of your 'historic' additions. How far back in time are you planning to go?

Hi

Are you adding historic county boundaries from new or updating existing?

Hi
http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/AOP
This OP query highlights 'C' refs on pedestrian, service, residential & track ways (including some polygons). If possible, it would be good if you could check them for potential errors.

I'm still wait to know how you know what you claim...

61338056 over 7 years ago

How do you know that?

61312422 over 7 years ago

i plan to update wiki pages once the tag is agreed upon. I've started a discussion on Talk-GB. There you'll see a list of the various 'C' ref tags. Amalgamating them into one makes the DB more accurate.

Hi
Could you show me where your edits to 'official-ref' were consented?
I informed you of my plans. You raised no objection.
My actions make the OSM database more accurate. I plan to post on Talk-GB when I've compiled all the data once completed.

Doh! Replied to my own changeset.

Hi
I'm cleaning up 'C' class roads refs so they don't render. (discussed on Talk:gb)

A while ago you added ref= C114 which conflicted with the existing admin:ref tag.
way/120451345/history
Are you able to double check to see which is correct?

You make a fair point. However, for now, I'd like to continue with highway_authority_ref. Once unified it can be discussed on the forum. If it's decided another option is better, amending just one tag is so much easier. For clarity I'm amending 'tertiary' roads with a C* ref. atm. I'll be checking other road classifications after.

Hi

There was a discussion in 2015: https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2015-May/017414.html about this. Official_ref was felt to be too generic. There could be more than one 'official' ref from more than one authority. Highway_authority_ref was considered a good solution. I've been gradually (very) updating refs & official_refs to this tag. Once that's finished the misspelt, & random tag (designation etc) can be updated. It would b good to get all refs in the same tag.
Do you use the official_ref data for any means? If so would it be much work to change any software to accept the changes?

Hi, More to do with tagging for the consumer. Is it fair they're expected to find & understand the various different NapTAN codes. I note there's a few in London with different names to differentiate between NR, LO & LU. And then, of course, there are the stations prefixed with 'London' in OSM but not on any of the signs.

59353154 over 7 years ago

They are all stations, just varying in size & facilities. Any differences should be noted in sub tags. Such as railway=station, station=halt (although it should be more accurately described: request_stop=yes). Can't speak for everywhere, but there's a couple of 'halts' on my line which have become permanent stops due to increased passenger loads.
