67751400

About a year(?) ago I systematically went through all of the Muni Metro lines (but not the cable cars, and didn't finish the F line) and added every stop and platform in the city, and tried to standardize it as best as I could, given that it's an odd system where modern light rail trains often stop in the middle of the street with nothing resembling a station - little or no infrastructure whatsoever except a yellow rectangle painted on the tracks.

Wherever the stop met the bare minimum standard to be called a light rail station (which I arbitrarily decided was some kind of platform long enough that people don't have to step into traffic) it was mapped as a railway=station. For the E line and the remaining Muni Metro stops I followed railway=tram_stop which says that it should go on the tracks, and put it on the same node as public_transport=stop_position.

Everything should already have the standard public_transport tags and wherever there is a platform of some kind there should already be a stop_area relation. Every platform was also tagged with railway=platform which conflicts with railway=tram_stop.

Why are you changing all the railway=tram_stop nodes to railway=stop? It seems like a less-specific way of tagging the stops, and causes them to stop rendering on most maps.

HI, it looks like you merged some ways here along Dyer Street, which messed up the lane count/type tagging,

It's usually a bad idea (and unnecessary) to merge ways unless you are certain that the tags, relation memberships etc are identical, since the ways were usually split for a reason.

You have removed an an awful lot of service=* tags from parking aisles and driveways here and in other changesets recently. What are you trying to do? I don't understand, it seems counterproductive.

(A couple of turn restrictions also got somewhat messed up here when ways were merged that probably should not have been)

I'm curious what your source for this name is. I can't find any reliable references to it.

This was changed back to a 2-way street about 3 months ago.

It looks like these ways were intentionally split because the Bay Area Ridge Trail passes through a small segment here; merging them made the entire street part of the relation for the trail.

Please don't remove the service=* tags from parking aisles and driveways.

That's referring to the main (often 2 or more lane) roads that you would typically find between individual parking lots in places like shopping centers or airports that have large complex parking arrangements. It is not really relevant to small driveways in a city.

63533550

If it was really a junkyard than it probably shouldn't be mapped as a service way at all, I would think, since there wouldn't actually be a "way".

Bing is several years old around here. If you look at one of the more recent layers (the Mapbox and DigitalGlobe layers tend to be the most recent in the Bay Area) it looks like a paved industrial lot with some parking spaces marked along the side.

This change doesn't seem quite correct. The intersection is so wide that vehicles turning right from Posen onto Ordway never actually enter the roundabout - the ways were connected at the same node intentionally to reflect that fact. The sidewalk tags also got (very slightly) messed up here.

63533550

This could reasonably be considered either a driveway or a parking aisle, but it's certainly one of them. The service=driveway tag should not have been removed.

63376690

If you're going to map random small residential driveways, it would be helpful to add the service=driveway (and usually access=private) tags so that they don't look like publicly-accessible full-size service roads and completely clutter up the map.

Hi, it looks like a bunch of lane tagging got messed up here (lane counts, turn lanes). It's generally a bad idea to merge road segments that have been split without checking to be absolutely sure that they are identical. In this case they had been split where the lane tags changed, and had different tags, which got scrambled in this changeset. Can you fix/revert this?

62921828

Please don't delete the service=* tags from service ways.

62918321

Please don't delete the service=parking_aisle and service=driveway tags from parking aisles and driveways.

62868509

Since the street is only temporarily closed for construction you could have changed it to highway=construction instead of deleting it outright.

62685825

Please don't delete random pieces of streets for no reason. Thank you.

62649531

Both of these were already on the map.

62449264

Please don't remove the service=parking_aisle tag from parking aisles.
