Hello Gus2001,

your contributions to OSM are causing problems. Please pause your work, and get in touch with the US community to discuss your plans.

For one, you are not using changeset comments. Please read and understand osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments - you cannot make sweeping changes and not explain them.

Secondly, members of the community have tried to contact you about your edits in changeset/126115948#map=9/37.2798/-122.0852 but you have not responded to these messages.

Thirdly, it is highly questionable whether fire districts have a place in OSM at all (their boundaries would either need to be observable on the ground, OR the community would have to decide that this information is of such great importance that the verifiability requirement should be waived). If they are recorded, then “boundary=administrative” is almost certainly the wrong way to do it. This is an issue that warrants prior discussion with the community in a suitable medium, possibly the talk-us mailing list (lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us) or the OSM US Slack channel.

Please stop adding fire districts until you have reached an agreement with the community on if and how to do that.

Best regards
Frederik Ramm
