Changeset When Comment
160038191

Please review your edited features and the extent of your changeset before saving. While it looks like the intent of this changeset was to add building footprints near Myrtle Beach, you also edited a couple service roads in Boalsburg, PA, and pulled a node far from its correct alignment, overlapping buildings and other roads. I'm sure this was unintentional and probably caused by panning around the map to browse before saving the changeset. Ways in question are: way/763190671; way/763190673

When buildings have recently been demolished but are still visible on most aerial imagery, it is good to retain the feature on the map as a note to mappers. However, the appropriate tag for such a feature is building:demolished=*. It looks like the building was tagged as landuse=farmyard and given a note in its name field, which is improper. I have corrected the tagging in changeset/159889477. Thanks!

I have gone ahead and made the above mentioned change myself - see changeset/158793710.

Unless there's signage or some other documentation of this building (way/1328569897) being titled Studebaker Building "in South Bend", I would suggest removing the "in South Bend" modifier. The addr:city tag and its location on the map already specify this. One way to add detail to the building through its title might be name="Studebaker Building 84" since locally this building part is still recognized by its number in the old factory site.

Hi and welcome to OSM! It looks like there was an error in this changeset where the intersection of parking aisle (way/872141102) and alley (way/17534416) was pulled far from its true alignment and snapped to a bus stop node a few blocks south. I have reverted this in changeset #157311021. Try to use caution when panning around the map while in the editor, to make sure you don't grab a node and edit it accidentally. You can also verify what's changed prior to saving your edits by reviewing the sidebar in the iD editor.

Hi, I have removed the description=* tag added as part of this changeset as it violates OSM policy on advertisements. See description=*#No_advertising for more info. Reverted with changeset #156773391

154780301

Hi, as part of this changeset, Fillmore Road (way/17540181) was changed from unclassified to residential. This road is not a residential road per highway=residential as it not primarily an access road for residences. In fact, there are no residences along this length of road. Please revert these segments to highway=unclassified.

No joke, the TIGER lines in the town of Seaforth are some of the most jacked up I've seen yet

I appreciate the catch, corrected this!

Typically the accepted style is to map actual present land use rather than zoning designation of parcels. I've updated a couple of these commercial areas near Hanna, UT as an example: changeset/151511195

150987465

This changeset mistakenly changed a natural:wood area feature to a house. I have reverted the edit on this feature (changeset #151291998).

Whoops, thank you for the catch! That sidewalk had been attached to the parking lot so it looks like I missed deleting the crossing node when separating them. Fixed now!

Thanks for your attention to this. I am in the area and verified in person yesterday that the lot has been reopened in its usual capacity. The lot had been closed for installation of a geothermal energy field. Generally it's recommended to only tag an area/ways as under construction if there is construction visible, and wait until construction is over to verify if features have been permanently removed or replaced with something different before deleting the features. The realignment of Moose Krause Circle as part of this changeset is correct, but the ways deleted within the parking lot should be reverted.

Theme park Proširene Slobode Republika looks misplaced - please verify and revise if needed

The parking aisles in Joyce lot were closed temporarily for construction and should have been tagged with highway=construction rather than deleted. They are currently reopened. Please revert these deletions.

Re: discussion on changeset #145625544

Hi zluukzki,
I see your point but I would counter: Per the wiki (railway=abandoned) this tag is to be used when there are remaining infrastructural features such as sleepers, signals, and signage, none of which remain on this route. In some places the legal right of way has been vacated to adjacent property owners per county records. Apart from one remaining bridge across Potato Creek, the only physical remnant of the route is the embankment. As a compromise I've changed some of these ways to embankments where applicable (changeset #145668434), but the railway route does not exist anymore as such and I believe should be mapped on OpenHistoricalMaps.

Fair point - my thought here wasn't just whether they were private or public but also character of the street and priority in the road network. I think to your point Irish Crossings Lane could be considered a residential street due to its look and character. Contrast to Irish Way (17561666), for instance, it essentially functions as a named parking aisle and should not be routed through over Dunn Rd and Willis St.

Hi, per the OSM wiki good practices it's recommended not to map features that no longer exist, which includes a good portion of these abandoned railways (for example, the demolished railyard in South Bend that was once bounded by Indiana, Franklin, Ewing, and Main streets). For consistency and cleanliness of the map I'd like to request removal of the railways that have been demolished and/or are no longer visible. Thank you!
