Welcome to OpenStreetMap! Thanks for your contribution - looking forward to see more in the future!

That solves it, then - I think I had used an Overpass filter to download a layer with only way["highway"] so it hadn't downloaded that relation. There's an option "File->Download Parent Ways/Relations" so I'll be sure to use that when making similar edits in the future. Thanks!

Hi! Thanks for catching and fixing my mistake!

So that I better understand how to avoid this error in the future, is it correct that I should have just kept the history on the left side of the split?

I'm used to JOSM just handling relation modification in the background during splits: for example, if a way is part of a route relation, JOSM automatically adds the newly-created way into that relation in the correct spot when the way is split, but I guess that doesn't apply to turn restrictions.

I'll keep an eye out for similar situations in the future. Thanks again!

Hi - thanks for catching this and fixing it! I'm not entirely sure how that tag ended up being created, but I definitely didn't intend for it to be there. Much appreciated!

Hi - thanks for your contribution!

OneBusAway no longer returns results for stops 25930 and 25060, so deleting these "highway=bus_stop" nodes is a good change.

Note that OSM also includes "public_transport=stop_position" nodes on the way which the bus travels (in this case, 35th Ave NE) as part of how bus stops are mapped - so I've gone ahead and deleted those nodes as well. (Changeset: 149634946)

I've recently been working on updating some of the transit infrastructure mapping in this area, and changes like yours make that process a lot less of a headache. Thank you, and happy mapping!

Hi! It looks like this is a good change, because the grass at this park is gone and it is now a construction area.

However, I've noticed that almost all of your changeset comments are just "aerial, knowledge, ,survey --". In the future, it would be very helpful and much appreciated to leave more descriptive changeset comments - for example, "Updated park to remove grass which is no longer present due to ongoing construction" or something similar!

Thanks for the feedback - I'll definitely include which imagery was used in future similar changesets' tags!

I was using the King County Orthoimagery as my "authoritative" alignment for a bit (and still use it very often, especially because the 2021 imagery was taken when many trees hadn't grown back their leaves) but received a message from another prolific Seattle-area mapper saying that it's better to use Bing as a reference and that is the local convention, so I've been following that since then.

In JOSM, I set the offset for the 2021 King King County Orthoimagery to "-1.7915,0.8959"

I also wanted to try recording some GPX tracks over time and figuring out a "perfect" alignment (but the hills make that impossible) however I only have my phone's GPS, which I can't really rely on for perfect accuracy.

Thank you for catching and fixing my spelling mistake! Much appreciated!

Hi! I had set "contact:text" because I didn't see anything better on the Key:contact:* OSM Wiki page (and contact:sms is not listed there) but OSM taginfo shows over 100 existing uses of contact:sms=* and none of contact:text=* so I agree that this is a good change.

Thanks so much for the fix! Much appreciated.

Hi! I just wanted to say that I appreciate the attention to detail of "keeping the history" on the original address nodes by preserving them as a node in the geometry of the new way that the tags are moved to. Great work on all of the new construction in the area!

Hey - thanks for catching and fixing my spelling error! Much appreciated!

The rainbow sign actually says "Maple Leaf Community Gardens" on the first row and "P-Patch" on the second. I took a bunch of photos of the area which I will upload to Mapillary soon and use to make a second pass at further micromapping the location.

I'm pretty sure the rainbow sign does say "Maple Leaf Community Park" and that's why I made the change, but I'll go double-check!

Hi! When I made this edit, I was walking by at night along 2nd Ave NE and could only see the surface (rooftop) parking area. From my desktop perspective, I can indeed see the lower (underground) entrances on the west side - so thank you very much for catching and fixing my mistake! Much appreciated!

Hi! I used the "survey_date" tag because I wanted to be more specific and indicate that I did indeed survey in person these opening hours at that date.

However, it's clear that "check_date" is the de-facto standard in OSM for indicating when something was last verified as up-to-date, and the detail that the source of the check date is a survey is also already indicated in my changeset tags.

So, thank you for making this correction! I have converted the rest of my "survey_date" tags to "check_date" (see Changeset: 149030812) and verified this changeset and your other earlier one (Changeset: 149012913) as good on OSMCha because I agree that this is a good change. Much appreciated!

I have reverted the parts of this changeset (see Changeset: 148988574) related to the residential landuse area edit (Way: 1221616810 and Way: 712371245) which mistakenly kept the wrong history, and re-added the intended fix (see Changeset: 148988646).
