Du vermischst in deiner Argumentation regelmässig Umbenennungen mit Übersetzungen. Auch ist ein touristisches Interesse nicht plausibel wenn flächendeckend Strassen in kleinen Dörfern mit name:de versehen werden, da diese Namen dort heute nicht gebräuchlich sind.

old_name(:de) ist der richtige Tag, gern auch mit Angabe der Epoche als old_name:YYYY-YYYY.

Wir hatten das in changeset/34066712 bereits kommentiert, du hast den name:de-Wert hier schon mehrfach umgesetzt.

Hi stweb, why did you try to delete the woods? Clearly visible in the Mapbox satellite, Paama is covered mostly with woods. So if you find the details to inaccurate, you can refine them, but just deleting is rude. Further, you only broke the relation, not deleting the members.

Until better imagery is available, the better strategy would be to restore the relation, and to cut out more of the settlements as inner members of the multipolygon. I can help with the restoration.

Kindertagesstätte Herfa, gefixt.

Hallo oeoeoe, ist das in way/387715323 nun ein (a) Kindergarten oder ein (b) Jugendclub?

Wenn (a) bitte amenity=kindergarten, wenn (b) bitte amenity=community_centre + community_centre:for=child;juvenile

Viele Grüsse

Prima. Der Erstmapper ist immer sehr präzise mit Geometrien, beim Tagging muss man aufpassen :-)

Dabei stellte sich auch heraus, dass die Kita gar nicht in der Hnr 23 ist, das ist das Gemeindezentrum, sondern mit eigenem Gelände in Hnr 27/29 gegenüber. Ist gefixt.

Guck mal, die Kirchengemeinde nutzt OSM: http://www.paulus-kirchengemeinde-tempelhof.de/index.php/gemeinde

Hi, du hast die ganzen Kirchendaten vom Gebäude auf das Aussengelände gelegt, war das Absicht? Dass das Gelände als PoW getaggt war, halte ich eher für einen Flüchtigkeitsfehler des Erstmappers. Auch die Kita ist ja kein PoW. landuse=religious wäre hingegen geeignet.

Hi, danke für die neuen Aufzüge. Die Leute wundern sich immer noch warum sie plötzlich auf dem oberen Regionalbahnsteig ankommen :-)

Hast du eine Idee wie man beim Elevator die Stockwerke angeben sollte? Du hast ihn mit einem Stück Fussweg an level 1 angebunden, aber der Bezug zu level 0 fehlt irgendwie.

Heisst eigentlich der unter Regionalbahnsteig Ru (derzeit Erkner-S-Bahn) heute schon offiziell so?

Hi daviesp12, I translate your comment as
"Added buildings and deleted duplicate forests"?

In this changeset, you also deleted the placenode for Slubice (node/26433240) and transferred the tags onto a building (way/385899579), was that intentional or by accident?

Is that any particular building in the town?

Typically the place=town is used on a node, or the area of the town. Currently the effect is that the name Slubice is only rendered very small on the building, and the Slubice boundary is rendered around the building.

I have restored the node in changeset/36056976 and repaired the 3 boundary relations in changeset/36057029

BTW, there is a mini_roundabout visible in bing on node/320186872/history that has never been tagged, is it still there?

Thanks for the hint. It certainly does not connect to Warwick Rd as it was drawn, as there are the residential house, garden barriers and different front yard layout. There is a structure in the aerial that winds around the gardens, runs through the gap between the building groups and connects to Tower Close. I have extended the path accordingly, leaving a FIXME that the accessibility needs ground verification. Similarly, node/1815165411 nearby probably connects to the road.

As for your counterexample, that is different of course as it runs through a pub. The Warwick road residents are more unlikely to serve you a pint when you try to run through their kitchen :-)

@SomeoneElse - I am not aware that OSM requires to record and publish conversations with operators of POIs. As for the 'what' - the way you enquired about.

Survey is not as clearly understood as you assume and has multiple meanings, which are badly defined for OSM purposes. The wiki/Survey redirects to wiki/Key:source, where the definition of source=survey is circular. The only 'local' on that page is in 'local knowledge', and that includes 'knows this first hand or from others'. Good, so that covers my interview. There are several discussions on the talk page that indicate need for clarifications. Go ahead and propose them.

And please provide me a concise form for my definition in post 3.

... JOSM values -2.13; 3.34

@will_p, apparently we have different definitions of the types of survey. When I do a ground, photograph or GPS based survey, I label it such. When I say local, for me it means general research from OSM-compliant sources, as above.

The purpose of my edits is to improve OSM data quality by combining knowledge from a variety of compliant sources, not just to retag something. In particular my edits consider the individual situation of a certain area, which is the opposite of a mechanical edit that would have required prior discussion. The edits include verification and node-to-polygon-expansion of existing POIs, which often were a couple of years old and have been found changing names, operators or existence, or moved to a different place.

I certainly consider now that you have a different preference for tagging particular amenities.

@SomeoneElse, as said, gathered local knowledge, in the particular case from interviewing staff, which is a valuable source of up-to-date information and also spreading the word about the project.

Local survey+Bing means gathering local knowledge from a complexity of sources, to verify what can be seen from aerial imagery, in a spacial and temporal perspective.

Your tagging question will be going to further consideration.

You can gather knowledge about the structure by viewing the following cc-licensed image. As the image itself was not reused, it was not cited individually.

To my judgment, the structure is purpose-built for civic use, in contrast to residential-type buildings in the neighbourhood.

Thanks. building=* should describe the structural type, not the ownership. As for 'juvenile', my dictionary does not flag a negative connotation and gives examples like 'juvenile movie actor'. Thus, not just offenders.

Is there a reason why you even removed the building tag?

You have removed all tags from this fast food restaurant, is it still there? It was tagged as McDonald's.

Hi, in which scale did you enter the climbing difficulty, e.g. in node/1390787005 ? I would recommend to transfer them into unambiguous values as defined here: osm.wiki/DE:Tag:sport%3Dclimbing#Schwierigkeitsbewertungen
