I reverted the changeset here: changeset/168579807

All the relations elsewhere in the world were restored to their previous state.

@Flap Slimy Outward: your work to create road relations in your area was preserved too, in most cases through new relations.

The comment by @limes11 is correct.

To create new objects in OSM, you should give them *negative* numbers and the API will create them for you. On the contrary, if you use *positive* numbers, you will ask the API to re-use an existing object having that number. That created the mess here, because your upload requested to edit several relations that were already in use and move them to Colorado.

⚠️ It looks like this changeset re-used several existing relations all over the world to transform them into relations for roads in Colorado.

Take this one, which was a multipolygon in London (UK) up to version #5: relation/332/history

Or this one was a river in Iraq up to version #11: relation/147/history

source=Google Maps, really?

Please do not use Gmaps as a source for your OpenStreetMap edits, this is not allowed.

Hello, MCRonse,

Your fellow mappers would be happier if you could please type correct changeset descriptions when you upload data to OSM, so that we could understand what you tried to change here.

Naming most of your changesets "Add" unfortunately provide no useful information. Or just one word with the town name does not either.

You might be interested to read this page on the OSM Wiki, which explains why we care about this.
osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

Thanks in advance, and have a nice day.

You may try EveryDoor or StreetComplete. They are able to download live data when you are on the go. This will be safer.

(That being said, the maps on Organic Maps look really beautiful, this is probably the most pleasant tool to *view* OSM maps.)

Hello,

Was this based on a real survey? You added objects in about 20 different countries.

I reverted the two objects in Brussels: one bus station is already on the map and not where you put it ,and you added a cafe inside a buiding that is currently undergoing a major reconstruction (since early 2023).

## REVERTED CHANGESET

Your changeset has been erased.

You created a duplicate of this node.
node/12912466094

Please avoid editing OSM with "Organic Maps". Tthis app shows incomplete and outdated data.

Hello,

Nice work but it is recommended to use a simpler pile of access tags. Please do not over-complicate them.

Instead of barring everyone (access=no) and then reintroducing access, the correct tag for this kind of situation is:

vehicle=destination
bicycle=yes
horse=yes

No more.

Hope this helps.

I fixed it to keep those streets as public roads while keeping the restriction against through-traffic.
Thanks.

Hello,

On this picture, taken in April, there was still a private property sign.
https://www.mapillary.com/app/?pKey=678093881576179

It looks like "access=private" was inappropriate, but IMHO the restriction that only vehicles with destination traffic are allowed here should be kept on the map, so that navigation engines will not offer it to bypass the main road.

Were all those restrictions lifted, and the signs removed, between April and now? Did you notice anything special here?

Hello, and welcome to OSM.

Thanks for adding addresses.

The typical mistake people do on their first day is tracing buildings on aerial imagery. You may have noticed that those images are distorted. They should never be used as a source for buildings. Instead, we always trace buildings from numerical imagery (Digitaal Vlaanderen GRB for this part of Belgium), which shows the official outline.

Also, when a single building has multiple addresses, the best way to map them is to add floating nodes, one per address, instead of artificially breaking the polygon into multiple blocks.

I fixed your edit here.

Have a nice day.

Hello.

As a courtesy to fellow mappers, can you please use meaningful changeset titles when you modify the map.

OSM is based on verifiability. A mapper who describes most of one’s actions as "Minor changes" or "A few edits" looks very suspicious to the community, as if one was trying to hide one’s actions.

There is some documentation on the OSM Wiki with examples.
osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

This would help other mappers to understand what you wanted to achieve here. For instance, you added a crossing here above the tracks (you used layer=1 as if it was a bridge above the tracks)… yet the tags you used on the footway make it look like a normal crossing, but without crossing nodes. This looks very wrong. If you had said "I added a new footbridge above the railway" this would have clarified that you really meant to map a bridge. When you say "A few edits" we assume you don’t know much about the area.

Happy mapping.

Hello.

Those "minor changes" are:
* Add a couple of paths in Scotland
* Change the layout of a tertiary road in India.

Next time, please upload your changes separately. Do not make a single upload for two distant places.
osm.wiki/Changeset#Geographical_size_of_changesets

Yes, the one. But buildings and addresses are a complicated domain, because each building also has a unique identifier, which is to be found elsewhere.
Don’t worry too much about it, and if you find another missing building, you can leave a note and we will do it.

## REVERTED

Please do not draw buildings from aerial imagery, only UrbIS numerical imagery should be used for building structures.

I restored a correct shape for this building.

Hello,

I see you wanted a review.
We had to fix a few issues here.

1. If a shop or restaurant closes down, do not delete it from the database. Just remove the tags, so that the same object can be re-used again when a new business replaces it.

2. I remapped the supermarket as a node. It looks like you changed the building by mistake to transform the entire building into a supermarket.
node/12956526344

Happy mapping.

Well done, thanks.

Thanks but the phone number is invalid.

On OSM, phone numbers follow the international format, there is no "0" local prefix. Please fix.

Hello.

Can you please not attach landuse areas to roads/footways/cycleways. Look at this one: way/1409992061 which you attached to two nodes of an existing cycleway.

Also, please use real titles describing your changes. Claiming to "add landuses Ronse" while you are actually adding companies to the map or changing addresses is not a correct way to map. The changeset title must correctly describe what you are doing on the map. If you want to perform various actions, it is recommended to upload them separately.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

We don’t recommend using Go Map! to edit OSM.

It looks like you did not see that some tags were already there, e.g. contact:website=https://www.bna-bbot.be/ was already set… yet your app probably did not show it to you and you added the website again, under the legaly "website" tag.
Also, we do not add address tags on POI, addresses are kept separately.

I undid your changes.
