Dear user ChonkerStonker,

you’ve been very active in the past couple of days, adding wildly different things to OSM - tons of tree rows, lots of bus stops, then mountain peaks, and so on. This is great, we love active mappers! However, there seems to be a communications issue. A couple of people - myself included - have tried to contact you with comments about your changesets; sometimes pointing out mistakes that you seem to repeat, others asking for clarification of data sources - especially where you seem to take data from ptv.vic.gov.au which is not cleared for use in OSM yet.

Normally, when such questions are asked of you, this will generate an email to the address you have configured in your OSM profile. And mappers are generally expected to provide answers to these messages. Here is an overview of your edits that have attracted such comments:

http://resultmaps.neis-one.org/osm-discussion-comments?uid=12556129

You have not replied to a single one of them, and where your practice has been questioned, have continued that practice unfazed - which lets me assume that you have not received these messages.

Before you continue mapping, please have a look at these messages, and reply to them where applicable. There’s also discussion about the ptv.vic.gov.au data set specifically here: https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-au/2021-July/014762.html

Please take this seriously; community interaction is important to OSM, and if it turns out you’re using a data source that is not clear for use in OSM your edits may have to be removed again.

This message blocks your account until you have read it, to ensure it doesn’t get lost like the others apparently did. You will be able to continue editing after you read it - but please, attend to the open questions first.

Best
