@Ropino Anyone parsing speed limits is already going to allow for the space before "mph", and is going to have to consider doing so because you have made no attempt to talk to people who added speed limits without a space before "mph", so they will continue to do so. Personally when tagging a speed limit on a road that I've visited I'd add a space, but both versions are perfectly legible.
I would strongly suggest that you read and inwardly digest osm.wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct . There are very few rules in there (most boil down to "don't be a dick") but OSM is a collaborative project and we need to work together. It really wouldn't have been difficult to post to the talk-gb list saying "I'm proposing to change all the speed limits in the UK without spaces before mph - does that sound OK?". You didn't do this before your last series of mechanical edits of this type in late 2014, and you haven't done it before these in April 2016.
At a quick glance, very few of your edits in the UK since 2014 add any value at all, and some have been reverted for the usual reason (changeset/28122531 ).
Given that the weather in the northern hemisphere is now much nicer and the days are longer, I'd strongly suggest that you Go Outside and Map Something instead :) .

Hello and welcome to OpenStreetMap!
In here you've added what appears to be a "local walk" or similar http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/frQ .
Generally speaking, things that aren't signposted on the ground don't get added to OSM - but there are OSM-based services, such as http://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/ , that you can use to create with and share them. If this _is_ signed on the ground as a local walk around Bedale, then the best way to represent it in OSM is to add it as a "local walking route relation" - see relation/3878675 just south of Leyburn for one a bit like that. Relations appear on specific hiking maps such as this one:
http://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#?map=12!54.2711!-1.6399
Hope you don't mind - just trying to help. Any questions please don't hesitate to ask - Andy.

I don't think Fitzbillies is a really restaurant though is it? It's a while since I've been there, but I'd have always categorised it as "quite an expensive cafe, catering to Cambridge's extensive tourist trade"
If you want to separate values (e.g. "cuisine" I'd suggest using semicolons rather than commas, because that's what anything consuming the data will expect - but note that most things will just ignore values that they don't understand. If you want it to appear in listings extracting from OSM data, have a look at http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org.uk/keys/cuisine#values and pick something appropriate from there.
Cheers,
Andy

Hi,
You've changed way/394223348/history and way/394223347/history from "bureau de change" to "money transfer". Given that these are both in Heathrow Terminal 3, are you sure that this is correct? What was the source for the change?
Best Regards,
Andy

@Lutz When dealing with "edge cases" and relatively low numbers such as here, it can be very difficult deciding on what the best tag for a particular thing may be. Simply replacing a less-used tag that you don't understand with a slightly more used tag that you do does not mean that your tag is "correct". In most cases such as this you actually need to go and have a look at the thing itself and decide what tagging best captures the sense of it. In the case of the "former windmill that is now a house" in the list below - was it historically a windmill, but is now a house, and is never going to be a windmill again, or is it a windmill in a state of disrepair that someone is also (and perhaps surprisingly) living in? Without visiting, you won't know.
In the case of node/3313042672/history I'm sure that the previous mapper will have visited the area and tagged it appropriately, and I trust his (local) judgement over yours, which I'm assuming isn't based on an extensive journey through England surveying former windmills.
In the case of node/3313042672/history you have removed the "historic=ruins" tag (26,000 uses worldwide) with "abandoned:man_made=windmill" (72 uses). This removes information from people's maps and data extractions - the rules in osm.wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct exist for a reason.
Also, please do use changeset comments and proper source tags when you make changes. OpenStreetMap is a collaborative project; we need to work together to create the best map. A changeset comment helps explain what you changed and why, and a source tag explains how you know what you changed it to was correct.
If you think that a previous mapper has tagged something incorrectly, please discuss it with them and explain why you think in this particular case how they have tagged something is incorrect. Say things like "X looks like..." not just "the wiki says ...." because the wiki says lots of things, but everything in the wiki does not apply to everything in OSM.

@Lutz Mit "Grenzfälle" und relativ niedrige Zahlen wie hier zu tun, kann es sehr schwierig sein, zu entscheiden, was der beste Tag für eine bestimmte Sache sein kann. Einfach das Ersetzen einer weniger verbreiteten Tag, das Sie, dass Sie nicht mit einem etwas mehr gebrauchten Tag verstehen tun bedeutet nicht, dass Ihr Tag "richtig" ist. In den meisten Fällen wie diesem müssen Sie tatsächlich zu gehen und einen Blick auf die Sache selbst haben und entscheiden, was am besten Tagging das Gefühl der es erfasst. Im Falle der "ehemaligen Windmühle, die jetzt ein Haus ist" in der Liste unten - es war historisch eine Windmühle, ist aber jetzt ein Haus, und wird nie wieder eine Windmühle sein würde, oder ist es eine Windmühle in einem Zustand einem schlechten Zustand, dass jemand auch (und vielleicht überraschend) leben in? Ohne besuchen, werden Sie nicht wissen.
Im Fall von node/3313042672/history Ich bin sicher, dass der vorherige Mapper den Bereich besucht haben und markiert es angemessen, und ich glaube seine (local) Urteil über Ihnen.
Im Fall von node/3313042672/history haben Sie den "historic = ruins" Tag entfernt (26.000 verwendet weltweit) mit "aufgegeben: man_made = Windmühle" (72 Anwendungen). Dies entfernt Informationen von Menschen Karten und Daten Extraktionen - die Regeln in osm.wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct für einen Grund gibt.
Außerdem nutzen Sie bitte changeset Kommentare und die richtige Quelle-Tags tun, wenn Sie Änderungen vornehmen. OpenStreetMap ist ein gemeinsames Projekt; Wir müssen zusammenarbeiten, um die beste Karte zu erstellen. Ein changeset Kommentar hilft zu erklären, was Sie geändert haben und warum, und ein Quell-Tag erklärt, wie Sie wissen, was Sie geändert haben es richtig war.
Wenn Sie denken, dass eine frühere Mapper etwas falsch markiert, diskutieren Sie es mit ihnen und erklären, warum Sie in diesem besonderen Fall denken, wie sie etikettiert etwas falsch ist. Dinge sagen wie "X wie ... sieht" nicht "das Wiki sagt ....", weil das Wiki viele Dinge sagt, aber alles im Wiki gilt nicht in OSM an alles.

OK thanks - there are a few dead bridleways around; odd, but not unique.
By the way, I don't think that the OS have ever made their public right of way data available with a licence that's suitable for OSM (obviously you're using local knowledge here rather than that as primary reference - just mentioning in passing).
Thanks again.

Hi,
I've reverted this because it changed things that were clearly "caves" such as way/130547267/history into "cave entrances".
Please don't change "all the tags of a certain sort into another tag" without carefully checking (preferably by actually visiting the place!) that the change is correct. Changing genuine spelling mistakes (e.g. "highway=pirmary") is fine, as there's no doubt what was meant, but here you changed a number of tags that clearly meant one thing into something different. I've left the tagging around node/2917922949/history etc. which I guess is what you might have been trying to tag in the first place.
If you do find something that you think is tagged incorrectly what I'd suggest that you do is:
1) Contact the previous mapper and explain to them why you think it is tagged incorrectly.
2) If that's not possible (perhaps they don't reply, perhaps because they left the project some time ago) then add an OSM note at the location explaining the problem and asking a local mapper to check.
If you must perform automatic changes, there's a set of rules that you must follow over at osm.wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct .
It might also help to read this page:
osm.wiki/What's_the_problem_with_mechanical_edits%3F
One more thing - please do use a meaningful changeset description on your changes (you've used "tag fixes" on almost every one). Using meaningful changeset descriptions helps other mappers know what you are changing and why.
Hope you don't mind me saying all this - just trying to help. Any other questions or comments, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Hi,
Just wondered how the bridleway way/112694346 joins to the north? Does it go through the farmyard or around it?
Cheers,
Andy

Hi - I've added a couple of tags to node/4080439901/history so that maps (and other people using the data) know that it's an acupuncture place. Hope you don't mind.

Any reason why you've changed the tagging in e.g. node/3313042672/history without any changeset comment?

Are you sure about the grate -> cattle grid changes here? It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to have mulitple cattle grids on one track not obviously separating grazing areas from non-grazing areas. Maybe they're instead designed to handle rainfall flowing off the hillside?
I suspect that trying to contact the previous mapper wouldn't work here (only a few edits, a long time ago) but maybe adding an OSM note would?

Thanks - that's a good point.
The tag "name:sr-Latn" seems to be used for Serbian-written-with-latin-characters locally, like on the station itself node/1845292809 .

Oops - there was a node at latitude 0, longitude 0 in here. I've deleted it :)

Are you sure that the bank names here use 100% consistent branding in all of the regions that you have changed them? My experience is that many businesses _don't_ have consistent branding everywhere.
What is your source for this edit - e.g. that way/40254196/history is branded "Wells Fargo" not "Wells Fargo Bank"?
Before making lots of changes, consider the fate of poor "Mac Donald" steakhouse way/128265146 which "helpful" people keep changing to be a chain burger joint.

Hi,
I'd expect the name in most places to be in Albanian, but in municipalities where there's a Serbian majority, such as here, I'd expect it to be in Serbian.
However, I may be wrong - if the station building is actually mostly called "Stacioni i trenit Dren" regardless of the most-used local language, that's what it's name in OSM should be.
Best Regards,
Andy

Hi,
You've changed the tags on the Dren train station building to remove the name:sr and name:sr-Latn tags, as well as adding name:sq and changing name to the Albanian name.

As this document describes:

http://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/d/d8/DisputedTerritoriesInformation.pdf

OpenStreetMap tries to follow the "On The Ground" rule - if the majority of people in an area refer to it as "Name A" instead of "Name B", then it should be referred to within OSM as "Name A" (though of course other language names can co-exist, and all communities are free to make their own maps from OSM data using whatever name they choose).

I'd expect many if not most places in Kosovo to have both "name:sq" and "name:sr" names for the Albanian and Serbian names respectively. In places where Albanian is the most-spoken language (the majority of the country) I'd expect the "name" tag to match "name:sq", so the "name" of Prishtinë is Prishtinë rather than Приштина (but there is a name:sr tag set to Приштина).
In places where the majority language is Serbian I'd expect the "name" to match the name:sr.
I'm assuming that Dren is majority Serbian based on the demographics in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leposavi%C4%87 .
Please do get in touch if there's anything that I don't understand here.

@Wynndale It wasn't "comprehensively rubbished" - for example, there's been no good answer to "How do we tell real names in use in a place from translations" and "It's not a
reasonable request to ask OSM to store up to 7,000 variants against
45,000,000 names, when most of those objects simply do not have names in
those languages." (quoting myself from https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2015-May/thread.html#73015 there). You've also just edited the wiki to make it look like OSM's view matches yours. Your view may be right or wrong (personally I think it's wrong because I've done the maths), but changing the "evidence" to back up your point of view is somewhat underhand.

Hi,
There are a few "disused:railway=abandoned" around here, such as way/234864091/history , and I was wondering what sort of feature they were?
A railway=disused is normally "still visible on the ground, rails intact"; railway=abandoned is normally "still visible on the ground, rails gone"; the "disused" prefix normally means (on e.g. an amenity or shop) that the physical thing is still there but no longer does the original purpose.
I was prompted to look for things tagged "disused:railway" by the style discussion over at https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/2030 . I use a map based on a variant of that style and was wondering whether I ought to include "disused:railway=abandoned" or not.
Hope you don't mind me asking...
Best Regards,
Andy

Hi - some of the buildings in this changeset seem to be exact duplicates of buildings in way/380244507 . I've deleted them in changeset/38083409 .
Hope this is OK - let me know if there are any questions.
Best Regards,
Andy

Is the passageway through to Precentor's Court really called "Hole-in-the-Wall"? The pub next door is definitely called the "Hole In The Wall", and I guess it might count as a loc_name, but I've never heard of it as an official name.
FWIW http://www.holeinthewallyork.co.uk/ has it as "Little Peculiar Lane" but I'd never heard of that until today either (and I first drank in the Hole In The Wall when it was North Country Breweries' only outlet locally, before Mansfield bought them, Marston's bought Mansfield and Wolves bought Marston's)!
Also, I believe that way/182735818 is actually part of Precentor's Court - I was there today and there's a Precentor's Court sign up on the left as you walk through from High Petergate.
