Ok, completely understood. I'm not worried about all my existing changes since as I wrote, I do base my changes off personal knowledge and manual inference work (you'll find that many residential buildings I work on don't have addresses labelled properly in any other dataset). I wouldn't classify my work as "importing data". All 3rd party datasets are sometimes used for corroboration.

You raise an interesting idea about reaching out to the data owners. I'll seriously think about it. Is there anywhere I can read about the talks with TA municipality to see what the process looked like?

BTW, the house numbers on Complot's GIS aren't exactly accurate and I assume they are interpolated. This is why, even if I wanted to, copying their data directly is a bad idea

Hi Dimitry. I was wondering about that and did try to find some kind of usage policy for Complot's municipal data but it doesn't seem to exist/be available. Similarly, Ra'anana Municipality doesn't have any usage policy available either... If you could refer me to any relevant resources on the matter I would be happy to educate myself. Regarding my edits, I only use this source for reference and don't copy the data directly. I also base my edits off personal knowledge and Google Street View. House addresses are of course publicly available information (they're posted on the buildings after all) so I didn't think what I was doing was problematic. Should I be doing anything differently?

Hi, thanks for the feedback. I was planning on tagging all the municipal kindergartens under this relation. I got inspiration from the municipal services relation (relation/14092988). The Ra'anana municipal site lists all of the public kindergartens and I figured it would be nice to group them on the map as well. However, if this doesn't meet the standards or conventions, feel free to delete it.
