Hi, I have manually reverted many of these changes since they aren't consistent with current road classification guidelines. Please see osm.wiki/United_States/2021_Highway_Classification_Guidance for more information

Hi, this goes against current OSM standards. There should not be abbreviations like this.

Why did you remove the boundary=administrative from Elsberry in this changeset? I have re-added it for now, since it is a proper municipality

Nice

It seems like you've made an error with the place=village node for Maxwell. Could you please go back and correct it to how it should be?

Just fixed it, I meant lanes:backward=3. I must've typed the number 3 into the wrong box

This changeset has been reverted since it deleted a boundary relation and several of its former nodes/members. Please be more careful in the future.

Hi, I have un-deleted the hamlet for Two Buttes. Please see my changeset comment

changeset/155326480

I agree with this change, since most (if not all) Florida state highways are signed as SR ### (not FL ###).

Oh, come on you can do better than that

Why did you delete the city node for Cancun? It now does not appear on most Openstreetmap-based maps (including the one used on osm.org.)

These routes should not be marked as secondary just for having a certain legal designation. They should be classified based on the cities/towns/villages they connect, and size/condition. Most of Missouri's supplemental (lettered) routes should be tertiary since most of them are not the best route between towns and villages, but do serve as collectors for many rural homes.

This is not an abbreviated highway name. This is simply part of Missouri's Supplemental Highway network, which uses letters. I will revert this shortly.

There seems to be a misunderstanding of the place tag. This tag represents the populated place's significance in the region, not its legal status. Places such as Birmingham, Huntsville, and Montgomery are large enough to be classified as a city. The legal status of a municipality should be tagged on its corresponding boundary relation.

Hi there, which "OSM Settlement hierarchy page" are you referring to?

Hello. ZIP codes/postal cities almost never reflect the actual boundaries of the city. They should not replace the actual city limits that were present within OSM previously.

Okay. Thank you

Why did you upgrade this road to primary? The way I see it, neither Drakes Branch is not significant enough on its own to warrant a connection to the network of primary highways by OSM standards.

What I mean by "town center" is the center of commerce, or "downtown", not the geometric center. For some cities and towns, such as Anacortes, this location is not at the geometric center of the town.

I am not using any external data/statistics. I am identifying minor collectors with aerial imagery (to check road quality) and by considering what the most logical route through an area would be, then marking that road as tertiary.
