You're welcome; we're all here to improve OSM!

Hello JohnnyDoes;
Thank you for contributing to OpenStreetMap in Iraq,
I noticed you added the "access=no" tag to some highways
Examples:
way/1324115567
way/1232098919
way/1232098923
way/1232098922
way/1324115582
way/1324115581
way/1324115585
way/1324115586
According to the latest news, these connections have been officially opened.
Here are some references:

Could you please share the source you used when adding these tags?

Hello Eman Ag12,
Thank you for contributing to the improvement of the road network on OSM.
I see you made some edits to parts of the Coastal Road, but those edits do not align with the OSM policy. Please remove the bridge and layer tags from the surface sections of the road, so that the bridge and layer tags only indicate elevated parts above ground. Also, revert the oneway=yes tag for these segments because satellite images show one-way traffic:
way/172470458, way/661830274, way/172465982, way/52129279, way/1443695361, way/1443695362, way/1443695359, way/1443695364.
Additionally, remove the name "كوبري الكرامة", as well as bridge and layer tags from way/176556950, since it is a roundabout, not a bridge.
Please also revert the following segments to their previous classifications "trunk, trunk_link": way/52129169, way/1413587386, way/1414644553, way/1414820383, way/1413587390, way/1414729207, way/1413587387, way/1413587388, way/172855266, way/1413587383.
Finally, remove the name tag "كوبري المشير" from all listed ways: way/1413587390, way/1414729207, way/1413587387, way/1413587388, way/172855266, way/1413587383, way/52129169, way/1413587386.
Could you please address these issues?

Hello iSumeri,
Thank you for contributing to OpenStreetMap in Iraq.
I see you added some new highways as "highway=tertiary".
Examples of highways:
way/1420387715
way/1420387714
According to OSM guidelines, this classification is mainly for roads connecting towns and villages. Here’s the reference for more details:
highway=*
highway=tertiary
The satellite imagery shows these highways as unpaved tracks, and in my opinion, "highway=track" is a more suitable classification.
Could you please check it?

Hello 𒂼𒄄;
Thank you for contributing to OpenStreetMap,
I see you added "oneway = yes" tag at the highway:
way/291665891
and the next segment has "oneway=no" tag and we need to check if it "oneway = yes" also or no
way/356033626
we will be grateful to share with us the source you used to update this site.

Hello Nawfal85;
Thank you for contributing to OpenStreetMap,
I noticed you made the Final finishing touches on the road before opening and converted the roads with oneway tags to operation and this caused a dead-end oneway issue in some segments
Here are the links:
way/1339903101
way/1044006478
way/1314114600
because of those segments still being construction:
way/1339903103
way/1373323098
way/1373323097
We would be grateful if you could help us update this site, check this issue, and fix it based on your local knowledge.

Hello osm_saint-louis;
Thank you for contributing to OpenStreetMap in Iraq,
I noticed you added the "access=no" tag on the highway at a border crossing, which has a oneway tag
Link:
way/307031223
and this caused floating highway in the network
Link:
way/1364450180
Could you please provide the source you used to add this tag?
Also, added "noexit=yes" tags in the middle of highways
Links:
node/12633181239
node/12633181240
and this is not suitable for the OpenStreetMap policy,
For more information about noexit tag
noexit=yes
Also, you updated this connection by removing highways
Links:
way/1196700653
way/1196700652
and added new ways
Links:
way/1364249392
way/1364249395

Hello Nawfal85;
Thank you for contributing to OpenStreetMap ,
I see you added operation ways, and added for one of them barrier=block with oneway tag in this changeset:
changeset/161890864
and this will blocked the route in this way
and I saw in the latest satellite image that these ways:
way/1353645148
way/1344341930
appear under construction and the barrier didn't exists:
node/12541242448
we will be grateful to help us to update this site and check this issue and fix it, based on your local knowledge?

Hello LockOnGuy;
Thank you for contributing to OpenStreetMap in Iraq,
I noticed you added some footways under the bridge, they are not connected with the network, and they are shown on the river in all satellite Image
Link for footways:
way/1312461388
osm.org/way 1312461389
osm.org/way 1312461390
Could you please check this issue?

Thank you for your response and your local knowledge of this location.

Hello LockOnGuy;
I have added "barrier=gate" tags which already exist on the satellite image for example:
https://osmlab.github.io/osm-deep-history/#/node/1211798177
and completed the access tags network in this landmark, Modified the shape of this highway
way/4085652
based on the satellite image, Removed the layer tag from this highway
way/524110126
it should be "embankment=yes" tag not a layer tag to be suitable for the satellite image and you can see my changes In the changeset :
https://overpass-api.de/achavi/?changeset=155398259

Hello Karzanom;
