This changeset updated 3 nodes: one in the Canary Islands, one in Berlin, and one in Croatia. That should have been uploaded as three separate changes instead of one.

Why does this polygon has a name and nothing else?
way/1479855187

Isn’t there a confusion between polygons and multipolygons? We can help you fix the map if you want.

Hello,

I observed some of your latest contributions, where you seem to be interested in micromapping playground areas.

A few comments here, that might be useful to improve your actions on the map and avoid irritating other mappers.

1) Please avoid mapping two remote places in the same changeset. Make two uploads instead of one.

2) Make sure that your changeset description matches your actions. If you say that you "added sand", we should not expect that the changeset also adds trees, moves buildings, adds small footpaths (way/1479929729) and more.

3) In a previous changeset, you created a playground with surface=sand: way/1066910951 This is the correct way to map it, congrats. However, adding areas with "natural=sand" as you did here is not correct. Those areas are found in nature, but this is not something to use inside a city. And certainly not on top of an existing playground having that information. I understand that some people want the map to "look nice" but this is not accepted. Please remove those unnecessary sand areas.

Thanks and happy mapping.

Hello,

It is very unlikely that this 38-meter high apartment building is named "West Appliance Service".

If you want to add your company to the map, please do it in a honest way, i.e. create a floating point inside the building area and add a name, business type, opening hours and a website. But please do *not* rename an existing building if that is not its real name.

Hello,

It looks like there is a confusion about how some OSM tags work.

In this edit, you added the following tags:

turn:lanes:backward=1
turn:lanes:forward=1

This is not correct.

turn:lanes:* are meant to indicate whether the lanes are there to prepare a left or right turn. If you want to indicate the lane *count* on this road, the relevant tag is "lanes=2", which is already set here. (Being a two-way road, lanes=2 is automatically parsed as having one lane per direction.)

I suggest removing turn:lanes:backward and turn:lanes:forward here.

Hello,

Many of those trees are small sheds at the back of gardens. As you can see, they are aligned with houses on Rue Franklin/Franklinstraat.

We have a full up-to-date inventory of buildings in the Brussels Region, therefore there is no need to cast doubt on their existence just because you cannot see them on imagery. They are clearly visible on 2015 imagery (which was taken during the winter), we can also see most of them on 2021 and 2023 imagery too.

Hello,

The pond you added (way/1479411181) is visible on UrbIS imagery, but this imagery was shot in September 2024. On earlier versions of UrbIS, a small water body is visible here but looks more like a hole filled with water, connected to the construction site.

If I open Digitaal Vlaanderen preliminary aerial imagery, which was taken in the summer of 2025, the pond is not there anymore.

Did you survey this area recently? Did they really make a new pond here?

Reverted by changeset/178573168.

You had already uploaded the judo club a few hours earlier, please do not submit the same information multiple times. Duplicates are unwanted.

## REVERTED CHANGESET

Hello, sigurpol.
I wish there was a nicer way of welcoming you to OSM.

Adding information is welcome but please do not add the same information *multiple times*.

You added a judo club in Brussels yesterday… and added a second identical copy this morning, which we had to delete.

Same for the Aquabikeenergy place: you added it earlier today, along with a note, which we answered. The place was correctly added on the map. There is no need to add it a second time, 2.5 meters south of the existing one. I have just deleted this second copy.

I see you use the "Organic Maps" app. You may want to know that Organic Maps does not read *live* data from OpenStreetMap but shows you a local copy, which you can update once in a while (I thinks it’s currently about once a month.) If you do not immediately see your point on Organic Maps, this is normal. But it was correctly added to the OSM database and is visible for everyone. There is no need to add the same points 2, 3 or 4 times.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Ko-lab has been on the map since 2021: node/9169779645
There is no need to create a duplicate point for this. We will revert your edit.

Both options are fine.
I don’t mind mapping it as an area… but, contrary to Wolf which I surveyed myself, I don’t know if Ratz uses the entire building here, including the NW extension. Not to mention that, since it is a new building it is difficult to know whether the building shape traced from the current UrbIS imagery is the new one or if they are still showing the old one.
If you have more info or if you want to survey from the inside, feel free.

Merci, mais lLe mieux est de ne pas utiliser le tag "access" car "access=yes" signifie "ouvert à tout le monde (y compris voitures, camions…)", qui n'est pas correct pour un footway.
Nous avons corrigé.

Pourquoi "access=permit" sur ce chemin ?

Ce tag signifie que pour l'utiliser il faut solliciter un permis auprès d'une autorité. Le chemin est ouvert à tout le monde ?

I understand that. The paths are still there, we simply retagged them because, as far I could see on Mapillary pictures, there is a gate barring access.

Private access, right? If access is private, most routing engines will ignore them by default.

Hello,

I am afraid the edit you made on the Toronto subway is not correct.
node/5320046200/history/5

This node, which is attached to the tracks, is a "stop position" node. It is a marker, which is set on the track to indicate where trains will stop along the track. You inadvertently changed it into a station node. By doing so, it means that we now have two stations here instead of one, because the station is already on the map: node/26240972

Station and stop position nodes are two different concepts, this is why they are mapped separately.

I restored the stop position node to its original state.

Bonjour,

Est-ce que c’est une interdiction *légale* ou est-ce simplement déconseillé ?

Je ne trouve aucun panneau qui interdit à un cycliste de prendre la voie rapide à Wahis ou Léopold III. Ce n'est pas une bonne idée, mais c'est légal.
https://www.mapillary.com/app/?pKey=1551614992796912

C'est important parce qu'un cycliste a le droit de quitter une piste cyclable pour changer de direction à un carrefour, et on doit toujours réfléchir à ce point de navigation avant d'ajouter bicycle=no sur des rues.

Des panneaux auraient-ils été installés ici récemment ? Où peut-on trouver l'info ?

Bedankt hiervoor.

oneway:bicycle=no voor fietsers.

oneway:mofa=no voor klasse A
(let op: "moped" is klasse B).

Ik heb dit aangepast.

Volgens uw edit is deze straat nu eenrichting voor autos’s… maar ook voor fietsers, bromfietsers…

In OSM, geldt "oneway=yes" voor alle vervoermodi’s.

Zijn er uitzonderingen hier? Weet u of er M2- (= behalve fietsers) of M3-bordjes (= behalve fietsers en klasse A) hier bestaan? Zo kunnen wij de kaart aanpassen om correcte navigaties voor tweewielers te garanderen.

Hello,

You created an invalid multipolygon.
relation/20177897

Instead of an MP you should draw a single polygon encompassing the two buildings and put the tags to this one.

Hello, and thanks for providing more information. OpenStreetMap is all about information, and therefore we are always happy with more information.

Joke aside, can I please suggest you write better titles when you upload data to OSM. Your last 114 changesets have the same "more information" title as the only description, which unfortunately brings no clue about what you are really doing on the map.
osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

As far as I can see, in this changeset you added a small pond in the Northwest Territories of Canada and edited the geometry of a few buildings along a road in Zambia.

When you edit remote places, it is strongly advised to update your changes separately. Uploading them together had the unfortunate consequence that the summary of your changeset is now spanning across 3 continents, which is unnecessarily annoying for many of us.

Thanks and happy mapping.
