That was 5 years ago! I don't remember. Have a look in the cadastre and edit accordingly. It's what I would do

If you transliterate the Bulgarian abbreviation to latin script, it would be BChK, but if you abbreviate the English name, it is BRC. BCHK is Bank of China (Hong Kong)...
It's not very important though

Hi, saw your good edits. I think it's good to keep (or add) osm.wiki/Tag:name:bg=, see here osm.wiki/Multilingual_names#Repeating_name_with_language_specific_tag
If you want to link to a Wikipedia page of the organisation, you can use wikipedia=en:Bulgarian Red Cross (for instance). For etymology, you can use name:etymology:wikidata=Q219 (tag on бул. България) if you want to link to what the object is named after. And I think it should be short_name:en=BRC :)

Thanks, I added info so it's clear it belongs to the chain

177861259

Yes, and on the west side of the building there are paths at 2 levels too. I can't remember exactly where they are though, need to go there with a laptop to draw them :) бул. "Симеоновско шосе" 1 is the address of Villa Victoria restaurant in Loven Park, so it can't be here.

Hi, thanks for your edits! Is the Minimart of this brand https://mini-mart.bg/ ?

173613850

Still wondering. I would guess it's called Slatinska only from where Vartopo flows into it, and definitely Dragalevska where it flows through Dragalevtsi. On all the paper maps of Sofia and Vitosha that I have, it's called Dragalevska until Loven Park

Hi, glad to see you started adding to the map! I hope we have a new mapper?
To save yourself some work, you should know that many "ways' have default values that are assumed so you don't need to add them. A highway=footway is defined as a way only for pedestrians, so no need to add foot=designated, motor_vehicle=no, etc. :)
Keep up the good work!

Hi, thanks for your edits! I think the footways you added are sidewalks (pavements)? Then please also add footway=sidewalk tot he sidewalk and adjust the sidewalk= and sidewalk:*:surface= tags on the street where you added the sidewalk. Yuriy Venelin has sidewalks on both sides, so it would be good to add both, not just one of them.

I added as much detail based on what I can remember (I've only been there 2-3 times in the last years, the last time a month ago) and from streetside images from Svetoslav Minkov. I hope it's now clear for anyone looking at the map that it's hopeless to try to walk from Svetoslav Minkov to Sasho Nikolov-Sladura, and that there is no road suitable for cars at all. If you want, you can correct my mistakes and add more detail.
People not respecting private property is a problem, but I don't think we can solve it by deleting paths from the map. Most of them won't look at a map anyway...

Hi, thanks for your edits. Looks like you deleted a building? It is recommended to show that a building has been recently removed by adding demolished: in from of building= In this way it will still be visible in editors, so other mappers will not be tempted to add it again because it's still visible on aerial images. It would also help other mappers if you describe in a bit more detail what you did (write "deleted a building" instead of "errata", for instance). :)

The paths on the west side of no. 7 are real paths that are publicly accessible (for mail delivery, for instance), but it's not possible for someone without the key of the gate to walk from Sasho Nikolov to Svetoslav Minkov. I think it is accurately mapped.
On the east of no.7 it used to be a road, which is now closed with a gate with lock and used as parking spaces. I can adjust the map so it shows them as parking spaces with a path connecting them through the gate. Would that be a good solution?
Deleting these is not a solution, because someone who doesn't know about this discussion might add them again without the information that it's private access.
By the way, the background map that cadastre is using is very old, so deleting the paths here won't remove them there.

I reverted your edit: see osm.wiki/Why_we_won%27t_delete_roads_on_private_property

177536904

You mean it is planned to build a road there, but it's not there yet and construction hasn't started?

177463216

You are right, Mitko! StreetComplete is another nice app that allows you to make many simple edits to the map, while Vespucci is one that is very powerful but a bit more complicated.

Thank you! I replaced the Review clothes shop with the bakery. Did you know that in Organic Maps, you can edit the information of an existing shop, including if a new kind of shop has entered it? That's a better way to improve the map than to add a new shop... ;)

177463216

In between deluxe and quartz, there are the Review clothes shop, an Easypay office and an Easybox parcel locker... Which ones do you remember are still there?

177463216

Hi, thanks for your edit! Is this a completely new shop, or is it a new occupant in a shop which is already on the map? In that case, which shop is not there any more?

Have a look at smoothness=*/Gallery
Excellent is for almost seamless paving stones; the bricks normally used have noticeable seams so are "good".
The sidewalks are among the worst in Sofia, but if you would drive a car on it, you wouldn't damage the underside (it doesn't stick out more than 14 cm). It's not worse than osm.wiki/File:20230418_142605c.jpg
