Oh I was not sure if there was some sort of local agreement on keeping those names on areas since so many rivers have it like that.
Ok, I'll be removing those. Thanks

Hi,
Just saying that you don't really need to do this. Addresses on separate nodes are completely fine and cause no problems.

Please don't delete exiting trails.
Thanks

Here is a draft of document for solving this issue.

No problem.
I restored the building and the two address nodes from your other changesets.

113306320

Thanks for updating. But has the building been demolished as well?

Also for the future, when you are removing a closed business please delete only tags that are related to that business and leave other intact.
E.g. address of the place often stays the same for a long time. And this way it preserves edit history for that object.
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for contributing. But as a strong reminder, please do not delete existing data to replace it with new! The way how it's done is that the existing data gets modified.
Also you replaced good quality data with your poor quality version.

Maybe you want to talk to Scooby527, so you don't overwrite each other.. They've been adding these private/permissive tags based on some local municipal map.

(as a side note, general agreement in US from Slack seems to be to use access=private only when there is a gate or no trespassing sign)

Hi,
thanks for your edits. I am just bringing to attention that trail blazes and descriptive names don't belong to name= tag.

If you want to add a hiking trial you can do that by creating a relation e.g. relation/12180957

You can check which trails are already mapped in https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#?map=16!41.8679!-72.985 or https://en.mapy.cz/turisticka?x=-72.9863089&y=41.8712555&z=15

hi, thanks for the edits. I guess the only thing is that the actual names of the faculty got overwritten by a generic tag.

Would you mind joining Discord (https://discord.gg/openstreetmap) or Slack (https://slack.openstreetmap.us/) to discuss tagging strategy or coordinate with our large scale edits?

If a driveway has no trespassing sign then an option is to just add access=private tag. Definitely don't remove existing roads.

Hi Irwin,
we handle these cases by adding access=private or access=no to the trails. Just please don't delete paths that exist.

112287661

That would be appropriate if the feature actually existed. Right now it's tagging a thin air.

112287661

Well the idea was not if a tag exists, but if the feature itself exits. In OSM we map only things that still exist osm.wiki/Good_practice#Map_what.27s_on_the_ground

Regardless of the controversial nature of railway=razed, the newly drawn railway goes through interstate highway, parking lots and even right though an existing shopping mall. We can be 100% sure that the railway is not there.

112349686

Looks great!

112287661

The thing is that we don't map object that don't exist anymore. But it can still be added to https://openhistoricalmap.org/.

112288789

Hi and thanks for editing. The trail you edited though removed all remnants of the original railway. OSM keeps only features that still exist.

See more on the railway=abandoned wiki page railway=abandoned

Hi,
Thanks for your edits, but the railway in Waterbury is clearly not there when looking at the imagery.
