Hiya! I've been removing many drive thru names in the area, but there are a few really oddball drive thrus like this one and the Habanero's one next to it that are not obvious at all and easy for someone to enter accidentally or struggle to find without a name. So in this case "turn left onto The Chicken Shanty Drive Thru" with accompanying highlighted map is something I think would be valuable above and beyond what would be typical and obvious in most situations. (I've used this drive thru to get out to the main road in the past, for example, because of how it's positioned, but now there will be someone expecting me to place an order haha.)

Yes per the Greyhound website and a phone call with them, Greyhound branded buses stop "outside of the buffalo exchange" and the map marker indicates this corner of the parking lot, even though Buffalo has closed and there's no signage here. It's called the "bus stop." The stop at the train station is still part of their network but only handles other-branded buses. Don't ask me why lol

Gosh darn Vespucci always faking me out!

Hi, the road is Ioli Ranch with an I, please double check and avoid awkward names like Loli. I'm fixing it so there's no action required, just FYI. Thanks for being an OSM contributor!

Hi ramijcr, thank you for your contributions! I see you've changed County Road 317A to be Southwest 44th Way however I see no evidence of this on the ground. County GIS lists these houses as having "County Road 317A" addresses and street-level imagery from 2011 and Feb 2023 show this road signed as "CR 317A." Can you confirm?

Hi Denis! In this changeset you tagged a bunch of houses as being on "Winifred Pool" street, however county data and street level imagery says these houses are on "Winifred Way." Does that sound right to you?

Hi wvayens, there seem to be a number of problems with this change. Firstly you removed 6024 Houdek Ave and merged it with 5970 Scardino Street, which implies that a house was demolished and its address moved 8 houses to the North. This seems really unlikely since satellite imagery clearly shows all brand new houses sitting in place with no gaps. Secondly, it looks like you renamed Marsh Bend Trail as it enters Wildwood city limits to be "CR-501" which doesn't follow OpenStreetMap conventions unless that section of road literally says "CR-501" with no other possible explanations. Usually, highways get a ref tag only and the name is secondary, as the rest of Marsh Bend Trail has remained.

Please reply to this comment so we can discuss. If I don't hear back in a few days I'll assume these were mistakes and undo them. Thanks for being an OSM contributor!

Hiya! Thanks for your awesome work in this area. Do you have any good address sources for the new houses in the Meggison Road / Newell Loop subdivision?

Hi there, is this not a prison building? Commercial seems like an odd choice for what appears to be jail cells.

Sure, just that naming industrial landuses doesn't seem like a very high priority or useful thing. It's unlikely to show up anywhere, and there's only one building on the property with a duplicate address to the landuse, and the most visible sign is on the building not the land, so if we mapped like this we'd be practically mapping property lines instead of buildings which isn't how OSM works. (It's just a building surrounded by parking lots, it's not like a campus or strip mall)

Hi! I was doing a lot of cleanup at the time, if you have better data please feel free to undo my changes. It's very likely that I didn't see an extent and just removed the duplicate, so as long as there's no duplication I'm happy.

Hi there! Please undo this edit: in openstreetmap we always expand common abbreviations like St for Street, Ave for Avenue, N for North, etc.

Hi there! Remember to add the housenumber tag for the numeric portion of the address.

Hi thanks for your great contributions! FYI there's not a big need to make multipolygon relations for stuff like parking lots unless they're truly oddly shaped. For curbs, medians, grass, and other non-parking-lot stuff you can usually just normally map them inside of the parking lot without much issue, they're still "part of the lot" if they're encircled by places to park. I only bring it up because relations can easily create confusion and difficulty, so using them sparingly is almost always a good idea.

Thanks again!

Sure, and I guess it's valid (presumably iD told you this is how to tag, so I guess it's not wrong), it just might be clearer if you reverse the way and make it oneway=yes. But I guess it's not required as long as the arrows point the right way.

Hi and thanks for your contributions! I'm guessing you probably didn't intend to tag one-way=-1 on one of these hiking paths node #1127631556 ?

Hi there! We appreciate you wanting to add your business to OSM, however you can't put your business' location as a PO box inside the UPS store: not only would that make every place with PO boxes a nightmare on the map, but also people would show up to the UPS store thinking they can talk to you.

If you've got a home-based or virtual business where customers aren't able to physically visit you then I'm afraid we can't accept your submission: we're Open Street Map, not Open Business Database, and our primary mission is to curate highly accurate information about where places are and how to physically get to them.

Please let me know your thoughts by commenting here; if there's no satisfactory reply within a few days your submission will be removed.

Oh wow that's crazy! I guess that's the correct tag for that situation then.

Thanks for your contributions and welcome to Willamette Valley OpenStreetMap! Your changes look fine, with the one exception that I bet Dumbeck Ave has 2 lanes, not 1. The case for lanes=1 is single-lane one-way alleys, turning lanes, onramps, etc, but a normal two-way road with one lane in each direction is lanes=2.

Cheers!
