Hi rusefkuma,

Thank you for contributing to OSM in Switzerland. It is however pretty much a puzzle what you actually contributed. It would be very helpful if you would add a insightful comment to your changeset next time so other mappers in the area quickly understand what you did.

Could you please elaborate on what you changed?

Cheers, dikkeknodel

Hi domod,

There is a high chance you don't know this anymore, since it was three years ago, but I'll give it a try. You've added the hiking route relations Züri z'Fuess in this changeset. I tried to find nr. 01 today in the city but did not find any signposts. Was it signposted when you added it, or did you copy it from the map supplied by the tourism office?
Cheers, dikkeknodel

Hallo Pudu,
In diese Änderung hast du piste tags zugefügt in eine MTB Route Relation (relation/1591489). Ich glaube das ist eine Verirrung. Ich glaube es soll eine neue Relation sein ahnlich wie zum Beispiel der Uetliberg Schlittelweg (relation/48144).
Kannst du das mal nachschauen?
Liebe Grüsse, dikkeknodel

I've made a correction in the following changeset.
changeset/57793053#map=15/-24.9871/30.8168

Thank you, how about the stairway changeset comment?
Cheers,
Raymond

Thanks for getting back, I'll change it accordingly. Cheers, dikkeknodel

Hi smaprs,
I'm currently working on the #hotosm-project-3702 for Angola. I noticed you added a smoothness and 4wd_only tags to a highway that you have sourced from Mapbox and Bing imagery (way/360405842). I have a few questions about this.
Firstly, I wonder how you can decide on these values, based on not that high imagery resolution.
Secondly, you have set smoothness=bad, which according to the smoothness wiki page means that it is accesible by normal car with robust wheels, while you also set 4wd_only=yes. This seems contradicting.
To my opinion these values can not be set based on imagery only.

Hallo piecepaper,
Ich sehe das du das Jakobs Denkmal eine Wikipedia URL gegeben hast. Ein ganze URL ist nicht falsch, ist aber nicht notwendig. "wikipedia=St. Jakobs-Denkmal" wäre ausreichend. Sehe osm.wiki/DE:Key:wikipedia für die Details.
Liebe Grüsse, dikkeknodel

Thanks for getting back this quickly. I'll implement the proposal.

Ik heb er overigens al een paar gewijzigd die doorliepen in de vakken waar ik nu in werk voor #hotosm-project-3702 #missingmaps.

Hoi steijn,
Mooi werk heb je gedaan aan Angola. Het valt me op dat je veel highways in deze en mogelijk andere changesets geklassificeerd hebt als 'path' terwijl het eigenlijk een 'track' is, een karrespoor op zijn Nederlands.
Een 'path' is een weg die te small is voor een voertuig van het formaat auto, en over het algemeen enkel door fietsers of voetgangers gebruikt wordt, terwijl een 'track' net breed genoeg is voor één auto.
Op de Bing satalietbeelden is duidelijk zichtbaar dat er dubbele bandensporen zijn. Het zou dus als 'track' getagged moeten worden.
Kijk ook eens op highway=* voor meer info over wegklassificaties.
Kun je dit aanpassen?
Groetjes,
Raymond

Hi Andreas,
I would have expected a stairway at least in your first changeset with this comment, but it is actually not there. Very helpful indeed.
Last year it has been pointed out to you that path numbers should only be in the ref tag in Italy, see:
changeset/51600778
changeset/51600823
Could you please stop tagging for the renderer?
Cheers, dikkeknodel

Hi Andreas,
There seem to be many stairways in Kafue National Park, when I look at your recent changesets. Could you please help the community in understanding what you are contributing by using informative changeset comments?
Keep up the happy mapping!
Cheers, dikkenkodel

Hello Andreas,
I see you changed way/362740738 from track to service. A service road is a road that gives access to some service on for example an industrial estate, which is not obvious here. Why do you consider this a service road? Additionally, you tagged a lot of highways with name=4x4. I cannot imagine that a lot of roads in this area actually have this as their streetname, but can imagine that they may only be accessible by a 4x4 car. If the latter is the case, you should consider using the 4wd_only tag, see 4wd_only=*.
Keep up the happy mapping!
Cheers, dikkeknodel

Hi NoelB,
You did a nice multipolygon for the wetlands in Angola. You gave it the tag wetland=swamp, which may not be the correct one if you follow wetland=*. A swamp would be forested, and I think the vegetation seen from bing at this location is not trees, but smaller plants. Do you agree that wetland=marsh may be the better tag?
Cheers, dikkeknodel

Gute Idee, danke!
changeset/57527978

Description and source are accidentally incorrect.
Decription: split Letzigraben, because only a tiny section of this street should be part of relation rcn 84, removed other sections from the relation.

Hi Warren,
Thank you for participating in OpenStreetMap. I see you added a museum, but did not specify this in the changeset comment. Since the change to the map is only small now it is pretty obvious what you did, but this would not be so obvious when you would have changed a lot. Other mappers need to now what has happened to map features, and clear changeset comments really help there, so please keep that in mind for your next mapping ventures.

I was wondering about the Napoleon Museum node you added. The building inside which you placed the node (way/204686300) also has a tourism=museum tag, but lacks the name Napoleon museum. Are there two different museums within this building, or do we have two tags for one museum now?
It is also valuable to add other relevant information about features on the map, for museum see this page: tourism=museum.

I wish you happy mapping.

Cheers,
dikkeknodel

Hi Thibault,
Thank you for contributing to OpenStreetMap by adding Points of interest.

I notice you added changes that are quite far apart, Uganda and Northern Ireland. I would suggest using multiple changesets for this, because this is clearer to other mappers reviewing changesets.

Other good practices are listed here:
osm.wiki/Good_practice

Keep up the good work!

Cheers,
