| 49292776 | about 8 years ago | I can't speak for the validity of the name, as I've not ridden in the trails around Squamish, but knowing MTB'ers I find the name entirely plausible. Trails like these are made by a bunch of dudes with shovels and bikes. "Dude, we should *totally* call this one 'Your Mom', cuz, then we'd be riding your mom! Get it?" Simple pleasures. :-) |
| 54402979 | about 8 years ago | Good catch indigomc! I'm pretty sure we'd have heard about it in the news if that'd land had all become flooded, so it looks like a safe assumption to me. :-) |
| 2028046 | about 8 years ago | Hi Manny, I've added a a note, questioning existence of the gas station added by this changeset. Here's the note: note/1234998 |
| 53070825 | about 8 years ago | What is the source of these addresses? |
| 53042108 | about 8 years ago | Hi mappered1, I've asked before, but I'm going to ask again: Were are you getting this address data from? It's important to let other mappers know, and to keep a record of, where info is coming from. I noticed that you added addresses to the buildings on the East side of Cambie, between King Ed and 26th. I'm pretty sure that those buildings do not exist anymore, and that it is a construction site for another of the Condos going up in the area. (I'll double check that). It's also weird that the building to which you added the address 481 W 26th Ave is not actually on 26th Ave, but has another house between it and 26th ave. I see that the addresses you've added does correspond with the address data that the City of Vancouver provides, including the fact that the CoV data poorly aligns that house (481 W 26th), and places it closer to the building you added it to. The CoV address node in question is still between the building that faces 26th, and the one you put it on, but it is closer to the one you added it too. There has been talk about the open licensing of the CoV data, and the consensus seems to be that it's ok to use it, but it is required that we provide proper attribution to them. It's not much for them to ask that much. On the other hand you may be using a dataset based on the CoV data, but licensed differently. Like if you were just getting addresses off google. That would be bad, please don't do that. I'm worried that this may be what you are doing, because you are editing with iD, and I don't think iD can support the import of KML, the format that the CoV provides the address data. |
| 17647498 | about 8 years ago | I know it was 4 years ago that you made this edit, but if you get this message I want to ask: what was the source for these ways? |
| 53540543 | about 8 years ago | I wanted to be honest about the quality of the data I based this edit on, but please do not remove the trails, I'm confident they are more or less accurate, and I want to do a bike tour in this area next summer. It'd be good if my route was in Osmand, and I can adjust the trace, and add more detailed tags at that time. |
| 52643870 | about 8 years ago | Hi Matt. It's always great to see new users here on OSM, and I hope you stay and contribute. That said you edits so far give me some concern. From your edit summaries I understand that you do not want Westwind to appear on the map. I understand that it is privately owned land, but to my understanding there is no prohibition on adding that to the map. I'll also point out that some of your paying guests may find having the road and paths of Westwind mapped to be useful. As such, I've added back the things you'd removed. I've also added `access=private` tags to all the trails (the road had been tagged as such all along) and the two gates that appear on the map at present. This means the trails show up more grey, and people will not be routed on them. This reflects the situation in reality quite well, as far as I can tell; ie there are trails, the trails are closed to the public. I will point to this question on the OSM help site: https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/54972 I hope this satisfies your concerns, but if not there are options open to you: add a question to the help site I linked to above may help you understand how OSM deals with private land, and you *may* get an opinion that differs from the one I've given you. Additionally you could email the Data Working Group (data@osmfoundation.org), who deal with legal concerns. All the best, and I hope this message is helpful and makes sense. If you have any questions I'd be happy to do my best to answer. |
| 53325472 | about 8 years ago | This edit of mine hid the already mapped fairways in the default rendering. That's unfortunate, but looking over the wiki I think that I changed the tags to the more appropriate ones, so I'm leaving it as is. |
| 51488604 | about 8 years ago | I've changed the address back to 12 W10th, after visiting the site again, and double checking that I didn't make a mistake last time. I do feel that it was inappropriate to change the address I'd added with "survey" as my source, without adding a source of your own. |
| 53136060 | about 8 years ago | Ooops, I forgot, I also improved the stream trace in the upper Markha valley too. |
| 53134752 | about 8 years ago | Perhaps I should have broken this into two changesets, but in addition to my summary, I also retagged the path in the area of the military base, from track+visibility=no to a path. As it's primary use seems to be hiking, and it seems unlikely that this would be used for motor vehicles. |
| 52634089 | about 8 years ago | I've added these buildings from the City of Vancouver data, that is compatible with the OSM licence as per the Wiki and the mailing list. |
| 46327436 | about 8 years ago | Thank you. I could have been more polite with my comment. I'll try to be so in the future. |
| 47774572 | about 8 years ago | This edit added a duplicate relation for Haida Gwaii. I've deleted the duplicate, but saved the multilingual tags, but copy and pasting them onto the original relation. Thanks for those tags. I hope it doesn't feel like I'm stepping on your toes. Here's a link to the changeset: changeset/52499451 |
| 46327436 | about 8 years ago | This edit brakes a bike route relation (at Main and Keefer). It is the second bike route relation I've come across that's been broken by a telenav editor. Please be more careful, and note the warnings that JOSM provides when editing relations. I've fixed it, but please try not to make these amateurish mistakes. |
| 51488604 | about 8 years ago | This edit changes the address of a building I visited from 12 E 10th, to 2617 Ontario Street. (The building at the SW corner of 10th and Victoria, way/331422481). I added the this changeset: changeset/45201188. As I noted in the changeset tag, the source was a survey. What is the source of your info mappered1? Please do add a source tag to the changeset. If you would like me to explain how to do it with iD, I'd be only too happy to. |
| 51599124 | over 8 years ago | Hi mappered1, thanks for the addition of addresses. I did notice that there are 3 buildings with the same address (1733 E33rd). I'm putting a note (here: note/1143839) about this ostensible error. I'd also like to point out that iD (the OSM editor you are using) now has the ability to add source info. If you click on the "add field" dropdown and "sources", you can input any other source. This is nice because it lets other people know where you got the info. For example if you are out walking around you could add "survey" as a source. |
| 36097450 | over 8 years ago | What's up with this? Has construction completed on the new school building? |
| 51599064 | over 8 years ago | Hi mappered1, I'm curious, what's the source for these edits adding address you are doing? |
