I believe that in general the
osm.wiki/Editing_Standards_and_Conventions#Divided_highways applies -- "A divided highway (also separated highway) is any highway where traffic flows are physically separated by a barrier..." and "Divided highways should be drawn as separate ways. The ways will typically be oneway=yes, and should be tagged as such where appropriate."

Fine.

I have already asked on talk-gb and was assured that whilst this may be viewed as micromapping it was still a valid approach.

It would be great if you could consult the wiki -- in particular crossing:island=* which notes that there are tagging schemes that allow more detail, e.g. footway=crossing and crossing=*

Note: unfortunately the road connectivity no longer matches reality -- if disallows a number of valid turns between traffic calming islands.

Thanks for adding 4 semi-detached houses in Bristol - very hard to see that when the changeset is so large - always good to save each local edit before the next one.

I'm going to tweak the Bristol houses slightly so that they share a joint wall and square them up -- there's usually a setting on editors to help with that.

The modifications look about 2-3 metres south -- I'll fix if I get time.

The previous alignment was closer to the GPX tracks I walked -- I think there's probably an offset to the imagery.

They are traced from Bing and could be considered "indicative" :-)

Near Wooten Road, the track looks like it goes through the corner of a garden and maybe somthing like a substation / gas small green box (on Bing).

Maybe its old imagery?

Look like a bad idea to delete carefully surveyed on the ground routes using Strava copyrighted information.

Or maybe also add a man_made=bridge drawn "underneath" with a "real" name -- in case it gets deleted again?

See crossing=*#Accessibility

Good job on the euro route, but ncn 4 looks very short now?

Your edit broke two major cycle routes:
relation/1318928
and
relation/5479822

Please fix if you can. If not see if I can.

See https://www.bing.com/maps?osid=ca3a2823-7b40-45fd-9bf8-9a2d81ebd11a&cp=51.497696~-2.690709&lvl=19&dir=299.52963&pi=-14.200873&style=x&mo=om.1~z.0&v=2&sV=2&form=S00027

Inside lane doesn't enter the roundabout - so mapping as a separate way (even though there is no physical separation) as wer're not allowed "tangents" to roundabouts.

The wiki is supposed to document best practice and de facto mapping styles - it’s obviously missing the idea of micro mapping islands and geometry. I think there’s probably a reasonable approach that will match both the macro and micro mapping styles - I’ll try that and see how it goes. I’ll also try to fix the routing issue that your edit has caused.

I’m sure the land use changes are fine.

Hit and run edits that don’t match local mapping styles don’t have local knowledge aren’t always helpful - local mappers have to be able to keep stuff up to date in the long term.

Why? You're deleting useful info -- it may not be relevant to you but the number of lanes was a physical fact -- you can see it on Mapillary.

If you have any excuse then please explain yourself.

97856699 almost 5 years ago

I cnsider these edits to be vandalising the map and removing useful changes. You are removing islands and road flares that exist and have been carefully surveyed.

if you have any reasonable excuse then please explain yourself.

Ok, if you have any reasonable excuse then please explain yourself.

97855985 almost 5 years ago

I cnsider these edits to be vandalising the map and removing useful changes -- I have reverted it. You are removing islands and road flares that exist and have been carefully surveyed.

Added back a few good bits.
