| 53539787 | about 7 years ago | here (way/259486983/history) is an example of another building that contains multiple addresses, but only had one placed on the outline. I have not found any examples yet of any buildings with two or more addresses that you've done anything other than just put one address on the building outline. This is an error, and one that is hard to find, so hard to fix. |
| 64157854 | about 7 years ago | Thanks for catching and fixing that. |
| 53251833 | about 7 years ago | This edit added a single addresses to many buildings. I think it is worth pointing out that most of the buildings had multiple addresses. I've fixed it for some of the buildings, but have yet to check the other buildings. In the case of one building it was just the wrong address. As I've said before, it is good to provide us with the source for your addresses, as it allows us to be better informed as to the validity of the data. |
| 64130060 | about 7 years ago | I forgot to update the source tag on this changeset, and it should read `Esri World Imagery` |
| 53600582 | about 7 years ago | I see you're still not adding a source for these addresses. Please do so, if you have any questions please let me know. |
| 51599064 | about 7 years ago | It's worth adding the source when you upload the edits. For example you could be basing them on a survey, or on the City of Vancouver's address data. It's important not to take anything from google. One of the reasons it's useful to add source info to the changeset, is that it allows other users to assess the accuracy of the data. This changeset had the addresses wrong for at least two buildings. |

| 40187305 | about 7 years ago | I've come across it before in this area, but always old edits like this one. I suspect you are right and this is no longer an issue. |
| 40187305 | about 7 years ago | Just a head's up for you Robert, this area is administered by India. The Pakistan hashtag is very political, and wouldn't go down well in India. If you're mapping in this area again, #Kashmir is an accurate, and non-controversial hashtag. And keep in mind that "politics" in this area involves plenty of men with guns, unlike Europe or North America. |
| 63335677 | about 7 years ago | What do other people think? Should we wait until the name enters more common usage? Or at least is publicly posted? |
| 56278566 | about 7 years ago | This changeset edited one reservoir (way/58425053) that was covered, and also not in WA or OR, but in fact in BC.
|
| 37158228 | about 7 years ago | I've added a note on one of the things added by this edit, a seafood shop. It seems a very unlikely location for a retail establishment. Here's the note, requesting more info:
|
| 62993578 | about 7 years ago | The section of 10th between Kingsway and Watson St could use some more work, as there is what looks like an off-street bike path that should open soon. |
| 60196351 | over 7 years ago | That's really interesting, thanks for the info! |
| 60196351 | over 7 years ago | I'm not aware of any abandon railway on Quebec St. Is it genuine? Why is it such a short fragment? |
| 61959067 | over 7 years ago | I posted a question to help.osm.org here: https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/65629/ Please feel free to explain your rational there. Additionally if there is any documentation of this convention to tag rivers as sea-coasts I'd really appreciate you providing a link. |
| 61959067 | over 7 years ago | Although I did mention the effects to rendering, my change was specifically with the goal of improving the underlying database. I tagged a riverbank as a riverbank, not for rendering reasons, but because it more effectively reflects reality. I apologise if I've broken a UK mapping convention. I did check how other local rivers were tagged ( relation/5557215 way/3344879 ) and found the riverbanks tagged as expected, but didn't investigate beyond those those two randomly selected rivers. I have reviewed the definition of coastline, and do not see anything about tagging tidal rivers as coastlines. Perhaps you could specifically say what it was you wanted me to take away from reading it? This edit also removed the (meta)relation "Great Britain (6038068)" from the riverbank, because as it was tagged as coastline, it was included in this relation. Somehow suggesting that the bridges in Totnes pass over international waters.... That not right. To say that the sea goes all the way to the weir in Totnes (way/619340695) is inaccurate, and misleading. Although yes, the tidal effect can be seen this far. I would suggest using the `waterway=riverbank` tag in combination with the `tidal=yes` tag would more accurately reflect the real situation. I'd be only too happy to add the tidal tag to the riverbank ways. I also will point out that we are not debating the location of the mouth of the River Dart, as I have not changed that. The `waterway=river` way has been left unchanged, and I have maintained the existing location chosen to terminate this waterway. I'm sorry if I've made a mistake, but I have yet to hear a clear argument why my edit is a mistake. |
| 61938212 | over 7 years ago | When I said that I was confident that this edit was an improvement, I was referring specificity to this changeset this discussion area is for. As for my edit that removed the coastline and added riverbank tags from the riverbank, I'd say the case isn't as clearcut, but I'll discuss that change its discussion area. |
| 61938212 | over 7 years ago | The ways that were traded as `waterway=riverbank` did not trace the same outline, nor were they continuous with each other, just random sections of water. They did not even trace the bank, for the most part, just random mid river areas. There is no reason for this river to be traced as seashore, with random sections to be additionally traced as riverbank. Even if the river was acutely mapped with both riverbank and coastline ways this would break the "one feature, one OSM element" approach. I'm quite confident that this edit is an improvement. |
| 39634693 | over 7 years ago | Hi mccaus, I'm wondering where you got the name "Park & Metro" for the construction area at W32nd and Yukon. Is it the name of the now completed housing development, or does it refer to something else? |
