I hiked those trails many times. There are no such names posted anywhere, no one knows or uses those names. You are just adding stuff from various online sources without knowing anything about the local situation.

Look, I spent weeks cleaning trails in CT and building hiking relations which is a VALID way of mapping that is preferred around the OSM. You are right now directly undoing all my work even though I asked you not to it.

In addition please do not delete hiking relations. They are valid data about where to hike and it doesn't matter if there is one or multiple members in the relation.

You drew railways through existing roads, parking lots, houses. There is no railway there.
Here railways are almost always completely removed. What you see from the imagery are clearings or paths that are now in their place. Those are not railways and have to be tagged appropriately.

Please do not add old railways unless you do a survey at the place to verify that they are really there.

Hi Greg,
those railways were completely removed so we don't add them to osm. But openhistoricalmap.org would be very happy to have the data.

Also could you please include source of the data to your changesets. In iD under Changeset comment you can click on "add field" and select sources.

"The Green Trail" etc. are definitely not official names.

Also would you mind including source of you data to your changesets? You are adding peaks with elevation and names, deleting existing hiking relations, adding stream names... which clearly couldn't come from Strava layer.

Hi,
Thanks for this awesome survey!

Hi zachesch202,
there is an ongoing project for (osm.wiki/User:Jnighan/Connecticut_Highway_Classification_Proposal)[CT road classification].
Before you do more edits to road classification, please talk to (@jnighan)[jnighan] or join #local-connecticut on (https://slack.openstreetmap.us/)[Slack].

Hi Rachit_,
what Lee wanted to say is Welcome to OSM and thanks for editing!

Two things that you could make better:
1. Try to have your changeset comments more descriptive so others have a better idea of what've done.
2. Before you move to the next location, hit the save button to upload your changes that are in the area you've just edited.

Cheers

Hi,
Thanks for editing!

The one thing I would like to point out is that golf green and fairway should not overlap. Please see:
leisure=golf_course#Common_mapping_pitfalls

Hi,
please do not delete existing objects such as forests or grass.

Hi and thanks for editing.

Just for the future, green and fairway areas should not overlap. Please see here: leisure=golf_course#Common_mapping_pitfalls

Hi thank you for editing.

Just a few comments:
* golf green and fairway should not overlap. please see here leisure=golf_course#Common_mapping_pitfalls

* When editing existing features, please do not delete them, but improve their shape by dragging their nodes/points or by creating new ones.

Hi,
can you explain why did you change all the residential/secondary roads to paths?
Also the buildings are of very poor quality, can you please improve them so they match the true shape from the imagery.

Sweet. Thanks!

Your golf=green and fairway polygons are overlapping. Please refer to wiki to find out how to fix them
leisure=golf_course#Common_mapping_pitfalls

Again: poor buildings and duplicate ways

All the building that you drew are of poor quality. They are not squared and absolutely don't follow the true shape of the real objects.

Hi the ways you drew (1011047320, 1011047319) are overlapping with already existing roads + they are not even properly connected.
Please fix that and refrain from such edits in the future.

Hi,
Thanks for editing, but for the future please don't delete existing objects e.g. forest, water areas,...

Also I recommend looking at wiki to see how to properly draw golf green, fairway, rough polygons
leisure=golf_course#Common_mapping_pitfalls

Before changing any road classification in CT, please contact [jnighan](@jnighan).

Thanks for fixing it!
