Hey, n'garh! Are you certain this place is called "Samastpur" and not "Samaspur"? I've always heard it referred to as the latter, but I'm not a local, so... :\

The position of the station node as it stands is probably inaccurate (compare it with the positions of the entrances), but I didn't want to change it until I add the platforms and am certain of the new position.

Hey, lmum, thanks for your work here 🙂

I'm curious as to what your source is for the name "Panchsheel Forest". I got "DDA Park, Panchsheel" from a stone sign near the southernmost gate.

(The note= tags contained bus routes copied from bus stop signs. It is the routes on the stops signs that are (meant to be) described above as not consistent or reliable.)

All of these tags were added by me, I inspected each personally to make sure. I removed them because they're quite often not consistent (sometimes between themselves, other times with bus routes on the ground) or reliable (I've seen routes listed which I've never, ever sighted; I've seen bus stops with infrastructure and a list of routes, but the routes were since changed and those stops were no longer used by any route.)

While these can be useful in some situations, I don't feel they're suited to the OSM database which is for reliably verifiable information. I'll be moving this information to the wiki.

Bah. Tried to avoid a "state spanning" changeset, foiled by _one node._ 🤦

Hey, n'garh! ^^ Is this locality really called "Nand Nagaria" and not "Nand Nagari"? The DTC depot here is called "Nand Nagari Depot", so I wondered if it was a typo or an older name 🤔

Hi-ho, dilli6, thanks again for this bus route. 😀

I happened to spot this way which seems suspicious - perhaps you added it accidentally?
way/608894514#map=19/28.58437/77.09088

(you may want to check it out in the editor, or with the map data view enabled)

I don't frequent this road a lot and I'm just going by Bing and Mapbox Satellite imagery here, so it's possible the imagery is outdated and the path is correct.

Please let me know either way. 🙂

According to this, it should be name="Delhi", name:hi="दिल्ली". Now let's revert and not have any more of this, please. =\

People, this is getting insane - this is breaking Overpass queries, causing major losses in mapper productivity!

Hi Anusha,

It's great to see someone else mapping in Delhi! It seems you accidentally deleted all the tags from this bus stop ;) I happened to notice it only after I added a new one, so no harm done. Feel free to contact me if you need any help in editing.

Take care and happy mapping!

Hey, Ayush, me again. Good work here!

This may help you with adding names -
osm.wiki/Names#Name_is_the_name_only

For instance, unless the fountain really has some official name (e.g. on a board or such), tagging it as [amenity=fountain](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dfountain) is quite enough - you don't need to add a name. The same goes for the temple.

Also, so that your opening hours are processed correctly by map software, take a look at the correct syntax for opening hours -
opening_hours=*/Tutorial

As usual on OSM, it is important to only add things as they exist on the ground. Happy mapping! ^^

Hey, Ayush, welcome to OSM. Always good to see new mappers in Delhi!

Now, it seems like you accidentally created a river where one doesn't exist. :D That is, if my memory serves (I've only been in that area a couple of times). If it was indeed an accident, I'll revert it for you.

In any case, I'll be happy to answer any questions about editing you may have.

PS - आप चाहें तो मुझ्से हिन्दी‌ में भी बात कर सकते हैं! :)

Hi Narinder, welcome to OSM! If this eye hospital has a name, please tag that in the name= field. If the name is unknown, it's best to leave the name field blank, and not write the object type in the name field.

I'd be happy to help you with any questions you may have. Happy mapping!

(आप चाहें तो हम हिन्दी में भी बात कर सकते हैं :) )

I was not able to find any road like this on the ground. It looks like someone accidentally changed part of the administrative boundary into a road.

This changeset adds a few POIs in the Mayur Vihar I area. Sorry about the inaccurate changeset comment, I messed up with OSMand.

(And before anyone points it out - "School for Mentally Retarded Children" makes me cringe, too, but that's literally what it says there on the signboard.)

Argh, I very certainly wrote "Add alleys in Chanakyapuri (Nyaya Marg and Dharma Marg area)" in the changeset comment! D:

Also - remembered that buses going towards Anand Vihar never take the right-hand lane on Vikas Marg (ITO Bridge), and modified the route accordingly..

Hey there! Glad to see another person working on Delhi. Please consider using more descriptive commit messages - makes life easier for us all :)
