Hi,
What you have mapped way/418167714 is definitely a roundabout. Can you explain why you have made it not one?

Hi,
I'm guessing that way/80537943 should be "sidewalk=both"?
Cheers,
Andy

The "openmaps.eu" site updates roughly once a week. It's simply not fair on everyone else who relies on accurate maps of Romania to have an inaccurate map (showing tracks as unclassified roads) for that period of time.

In addition, it's really straightforward to create Garmin-installable maps containing that sort of change yourself. I've created a diary entry here @SomeoneElse/diary/38613 that describes the process, and in there is also a link to the resulting Garmin .img files, both for the "default" style and the modified one.

Here you added a wikipedia tag for an abstract concept to a physical buoy floating in the ocean. I've removed it.

Please see comment on changeset/39299223 - in order to avoid continuing "tit for tat" changes I've changed the names back to how they've been for most of this year.
Hopefully everyone can discuss the best values for names before future editing.

For info, I've changed it in changeset/39299223 .

A couple of useful links: The changes over time to tags can be seen at http://osm.mapki.com/history/relation.php?id=2088990 .
The OSM Foundation's policy on disputed names is at https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/d/d8/DisputedTerritoriesInformation.pdf .

Note: As suggested on changeset/39249542 , I've asked whether a "Kosovo" community sub-forum can be created (see http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=54574 ). That would be an ideal place for discussion; but until that's created I'd suggest that any discussion ought to go on changeset/39249542 .
Please don't just dive in and change names - tit for tat changes don't achieve anything and just cause confusion.
Anyone who engages in a "name edit war like this is likely to be blocked from editing OpenStreetMap.

To be clear, "the official languages of the country" have relatively little bearing on what it calls itself in OSM. Some communities in OSM (like in Switzerland and Belgium) have gone with "many names in one", some (like Finland and Ireland) have not. As ever, see https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/d/d8/DisputedTerritoriesInformation.pdf for details of OSM's naming conventions.

A couple of days ago you suggested that people refrain from editing the country name without discussing it first. That's a good idea, so I'll change the name back to its end-April value. Please refrain from editing it until you've had a chance to talk through it with the local community.

Have you actually surveyed any of these or are you just guessing? Saying "tag X requires tag Y" proves nothing, especially if tag X was an edge case and was chosen simply because it was the least worst tag.

Are you sure that node/4171208872/history really is in any sense a "park"?

@marczoutendijk Deneme is "test" or "trial" in Turkish. I'm guessing it means "initial test".

@bittery Please don't add test data to OpenStreetMap. If you really want to test things out you can do so over at http://api06.dev.openstreetmap.org (though I don't think that anywhere renders tiles based on that database). There's also the iD editor's built-in walkthrough as well, of course - that shows you how to add different sorts of things.

"A483" already was the "ref" here and I don't remember seeing a name when I last drove along it. If something doesn't have a name (and many roads don't) there's no need to store the ref in the name field as well.

Oh - and welcome to OpenStreetMap!

Hi,
I've suggested to the forum owner that it would be great if he could create a community sub-forum for Kosovo: http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?pid=592269#p592269
I know he's extremely busy at the moment, so please don't expect anything immediately, but hopefully he will get chance to set one up.
Best Regards,
Andy

Ah - OK. If it's possible to find a "compromise name" that all communities actually use then that's great.

Ah, OK. Not everywhere that's "officially bilingual has "multiple names in the name tag" (e.g. Ireland, Finland) but some do (eg. "Schweiz, Suisse, Svizzera, Svizra").

If the majority of mappers in Kosovo are happy with "Republika e Kosovës, Republika Kosovo" as a name regardless of their first language, then great - but I'm trying to prevent an edit war in which people change names back and forth (as has happened in the past).

Can you please explain what "ISO 3166-1 standard does not define Kosovo as a state" has to do with OpenStreetMap?
The OSMF position on "what is a country" in OSM is described at https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/d/d8/DisputedTerritoriesInformation.pdf . It's also been discussed over at http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=29724&p=3 . Please don't make border changes without prior discussion with the other mappers involved in an area.

Are you trying to say here that the geographical location of the border is disputed, or referring to the dispute where Serbia still thinks that Kosovo is a province of Serbian?

If just the latter, then according to https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/d/d8/DisputedTerritoriesInformation.pdf and following discussion at http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=29724&p=3 I'd expect it to be a "country" in OSM (though some way of saying "... and it's existance is disputed by Serbia" may also make sense. If that can be done in such a way as not to cause an edit war, great - but unfortunately that's what happened next here :(

No - look at the "name" tag on relation/2088990 - it's currently set to "Republika e Kosovës, Republika Kosovo". I'm guessing that perhaps you wanted to set "name:hr" to "Republika Kosovo"?

Hi,
Any reason why you changed the "name" tag here from the "name:sr" value to the "name:sq" one? My understanding was that the majority community in this part of Kosovo was Serbian-speaking (based on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leposavi%C4%87 ) - do you think that it isn't?
Best Regards,
Andy
