Hi, this is clearly not a road, it's a grass driveway on private land.

Could you please ask your team to use 'Driveway' instead of 'Residential Road'?

171431412

fixed. if you're the same prankster who's opening the inappropriate notes, please don't...

there are more valuable ways to contribute, such as mapping buildings at your local high school, which will appear in snapmaps after a few months

thanks for your edits as always! i fixed a few geometry problems here, could you please double check if the area is still correct for relation/16899453 and
way/1426771608 ?

what's your source for this edit? the website does not have an address.

If there is no address on their website, you might be leaking personal information by adding the business owner's home to OpenStreetMap

Hi aTarom, yes if you have time to help clean this up, please go ahead :)

yes, 3 lanes in total. That would be:

lanes=3
lanes:forward=2
lanes:backward=1

turn:lanes:forward=left|through;right

the forward/backward depends on the direction of the line, which you can determine based on these subtle arrows which appear when you select a line: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3d3d60e1-7e12-4adb-89ae-a2c08481e004

Hi, please see the note tag on this feature which explains why the name of the stadium landuse and the building is different

Hi, in this edit you've merged a suburb and a cafe into a single point, which isn't valid. Could you please explain a bit more background about what you're trying to change?

170782761

whoops, this changeset wasn't meant to include the crossing stuff. fixed in changeset/170832999

170809378

Malaghans Road is nowhere near here, either the location of this node or the address needs to change

170509160

in terms of next steps, I would suggest writing a detailed proposal based on the advice here: osm.wiki/Import/Guidelines so that the issues above can be discussed in detail

170543166

hi, i'd suggest pausing this import until the license issue is resolved, at the moment we don't have permission to use data from Stats NZ, so worst case this would have to be reverted 😐

there's a few other issues at changeset/170509160 that also need to be discussed

170509160

oops wrong link, should be https://datafinder.stats.govt.nz/layer/111235 and https://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/113764

170509160

another problem is that this will cause 100,000+ validator warnings because StatsNZ and LINZ don't agree on suburb boundaries - compare SA3 (https://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/113764 ) with https://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/113764 at places like Milldale or Devonport

so this means `addr:suburb` won't match the enclosing `place=suburb` boundary. Also worth discussing, I feel like if we're going to import boundaries from a new dataset, there should be a plan to resolve this inconsistency for addresses....

.....but we can't use SA3 for addresses because we don't have an ODbL license waiver from Stats NZ who've changed their license from CC 3.0 to CC 4.0

170509160

okay, another point worth discussing is whether all the tags should go on the relation or the node.

I would suggest the relation, because that would help Template:Maplink on wikipedia. So the node would be left with just `place=*` and `name:*=*`. It's also what the australians do

what do you think?

170509160

shouldn't these be merged with the existing boundary lines? now there are two lines on top of each other

170148978

ups, i got confused by ko-KR. fixed now, thanks for noticing

170315912

Hi, can you please discuss this with the author of changeset/122935780 - it seems like it was intentionally downgraded when the new motorway opened

170320136

Hi, in the future could you please use a more helpful changeset comment? See osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

could you also please explain why you deleted these driveways?

170081341

no worries, thanks for updating this. i've corrected the syntax now
