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

114794857

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.

114794723

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

Noted!
Thanks for fixing it!

btw there is now new CT ECO 2019 and MetroCOG 2020 orthophoto imagery available in iD

Thanks for finishing the trail.
Just a small thing, paths and roads should not be drawn on top of each other. If a path meets a road, that is the place where the path ends.

I fixed the two overlaps so all is good.

Hi,
Thanks for the edits. Though no need to add trail name on paths. It is already included in hiking route relation:
relation/11974625

114541270

I don't have any direct contacts there, but if they don't respond to emails then the best is to call. They can't dodge you like that. I am not into cross-country skiing, but I'd say if it's not prohibited then it's allowed.

loc_name just means local name it doesn't mean that there must be a name tag. Looking at it from a rigorous perspective, when you were there, did you notice any signs or maps with those names?

General agreement is that we add the names only to the route relation, because it is not the name of the path but the name of the route that can even go over named residential roads, which have name of their own.
Rendering the name from the relation is not really difficult so if some map does not show them it's for a purpose. If maps would render only text from operator tag would we start adding trail names there?

Names of routes are shown for e.g. by [Mapy.cz](https://en.mapy.cz/turisticka?x=-72.2098595&y=41.8635217&z=15), [Waymarked trails](https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#route?id=11038937&map=11!41.9103!-72.1733) in details section, [OsmAnd app](https://osmand.net/), [Thunderforest](https://www.thunderforest.com/maps/outdoors/),...

Hi,
thanks for the trail data. Just a comment on those trail names. "Dirty Dancing", "Slap Happy".. that doesn't look like an official name that CT DEEP would use. More appropriate I think would be to use loc_name=*

Also trails (particularly those that are marked) are mapped as relations and so the name of the trail is not added duplicately on the path itself.
Both Nehatic and Pachaug trail have relations 11257426, 4783347.

114539150

OK.
Thanks again for contributing!

114539150

Interesting. Thanks for the link.
Are those names also officially recognized by CT DEEP? I know I was there a few years back and I don't remember seeing trail names posted.

I was just wondering if loc_name=* would be more appropriate in this case.
name=*#Variants

Hi! Welcome and thanks for contributing to OSM!
Just a question, what is the source of these trail names? Official documents for the state park don't mention any of those names.

Hi there is an ongoing road reclassification in CT. Before you do any more edits please contact jnighan (@jnighan).

Awesome, more things to map!
I added your stretch to the exiting relation.
