40362494

FWIW I agree - I've made similar edits elsewhere in Lincolnshire (mostly villages).
In villages the problems are actually more acute - there are more farms and other non-residential landuse, and the village "centre" (pub, post office, war memorial, whatever) is often at one end.

For info, I've re-added the node and made it the admin centre of the relation again in changeset/40350455 .

Does the building way/385275100 still exist? Note the comment on http://osmhv.openstreetmap.de/changeset.jsp?id=33713826 .

What does "cables=3;2" mean on way/261538284/history . I'm guessing that it means that someone merged "cables=3" with "cables=2" by mistake. Which is correct, and why change it from "cables=3; 2" to "cables=3;2"?

Hello, where does the "El Dorado" part of the name on way/183524162/history come from? I only remember it being called the "Capital City Freeway". Admittedly it's a while since I was there, but semicolons in a name seems odd.

Hi - just checking - is way/404629237 really a large building with footpaths going through it, and is it really called "OUtbuildings"? It seems an odd name.
Hope you don't mind me asking - just trying to check. Any other questions please don't hesitate to ask.
Cheers,
Andy

Hello,
You seem to have added a number of duplicates here. node/4264714499 seems to be a duplicate of way/227732833 . Or are there really two things with the same name very close together?
Cheers,
Andy

Hi,
I'm guessing that the "Rossendale Way" (which shows up in way names http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/h0U ) is actually a long distance path and could actually be mapped as a relation?
I'm asking you because I don't think I've noticed a sign for it, and because of your username I thought you might know!
Cheers,
Andy

For info, there's also a "Bounds Green Infants School" just to the south...

Hello,
Is the name of the ticket office node/2467516006/history really "The Jacobite"? Presumably other railway tickets can be bought there too?
Cheers,

@maraf24 I've reverted this, as it was obviously garbage.

Hi,
Is the full name of the viewpoint here "The Dome - Victoria square shopping center" or is it just "The Dome"?

Hello and welcome to OpenStreetMap!
If way/142342494 is now a brewery rather than a museum I'd suggest changing the tagging from a "tourism=museum" to a "craft=brewery". There's no need to have "former XYZ" in the name as it'll be clear from way/142342494/history what it was in previous versions.
Hope you don't mind me mentioning this, just trying to help. Any questions please don't hesitate to ask.
Cheers,
andy

No ack from user so I've fixed as best I can based on what I've seen from the roads and paths around here and the imagery.

@crossmyloof what was your source that it doesn't exist?

37655014

Places do have centres though - hence my initial question about Sheffield. I'd definitely leave admin_centre nodes in place unless you've actually persuaded the majority of mappers that it's a good idea to delete them.
It's not just about what you think, or what I think - it's about what the majority of mappers think and currently that seems to be in favour of place nodes.

@pmailkeey , while you "may not agree" with place nodes, they're a longstanding feature of OSM, and people have (on the mailing lists and elsewhere) argued for their retention. If you think that that's a policy that should be changed then I'd suggest discussing it on either the tagging mailing list or the talk-gb one.

Among the reasons put forward in the past are:
1) The reasons listed on https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/28140/cities-is-a-placecity-node-always-needed (that's a question that I asked because I wasn't sure what the answer was).
2) The geographical centre of an area may not be the city centre. In the case of coastal towns, the "geographical centre" may be in the sea.
3) Often it's useful to ask for directions to the centre of a city - and you can do that with a location chosen by a person but not with an arbitary "geographical centre".

What exactly is node/3123294008 ? Is it some sort of historic feature?
See https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/50435/duplicate-town-names?page=1&focusedAnswerId=50447#50447 for context.

Based on previous comments, I'm guessing CROW Act access land:

FWIW I've always used a designation for that.
