Please don't add fiction to the map. There is not a branch of McDonald's on the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf or a small forest in China.

Please use meaningful changeset comments.

Please confine the geographical extent of your edits to an area which does not spam continents.

Thanks for updating this. I've changed it to disused:amenity=toilets

Using a tag like closed=yes is generally considered unhelpful, as it effectively negates the main tag.

The grass area is clearly part of James Clavell Square, so the extent of relation/15926523 is clearly too small. It's quite hard to determine the correct extent of the square, even if you've actually been there:
1) The available open data from Ordnance Survey only includes a point in OS Open Names, on the side of thee grass area and Building 45. That suggests it should be extended to the edges of Building 45 and Building 18.
2) It is not mentioned at all on the Royal Arsenal Riverside maps placed around the development by Berkeley Homes, which is unhelpful.
3) Actual street signs naming it appear to be absent.
4) Known postal addresses of premises use No 1 Street, not James Clavell Square.

I'll review it again next time I go there.

Re: fixme about the purpose of the building by the lake in Beckton District Park (way/41151618) - it was a café and toilets, disused for years.

Thanks for updating this, but please don't remove the building=* tag unless the building has actually gone.

Please don't add test data to OpenStreetMap. Reverted in changeset/138950680

Live public databases are not the place to put test data. Reverted in changeset/138950599

Thanks for reversing this.

Any objection to me moving the pub's tags from the building to the property boundary? It's reasonably clear where that is from Bing aerial imagery and the Land Registry polygons. That should remove the tedious interference with the building polygon.

I have suggested that the other @OHirschfield might want to ask for advice about their Overpass problems on the OSM Community website.

Mapping for the renderer is bad enough, but mapping for a single query?!

138845714

A detrimental effect on *what*?

Altering accepted tagging just to suit a your Overpass query does not seem a particularly compelling reason.

If you have problems with your query, why not ask for help from the OSM community?

"Better" in what way? Is there any part of the building which is not the pub, which might justify moving the tags from the building polygon to a new point?

138805325

Welcome to OpenStreetMap and thanks for updating the map!

That looks fine to me.

The only thing I might suggest changing is that it should be building=semidetached_house (or building=house + house=semi-detached) rather than putting the value in building:part. It's very minor and it's very unlikely to cause anyone any problems.

The building:part tag is mostly used as part of the 3D representation of a building.
building:part=*

Thanks for updating this. I've tweaked the tagging a little and removed a couple which related to Bath Store.

* Cranberry Lane, not Cranberry Close

A prohibition on taxis (and only taxis) on parts of Godstone Road and Warren Road may not be what you are trying to map here.

What is the nature and expected duration of the road closure(s) here? Is there a link to a traffic order on TfL's website or in The Gazette?

Relation #15710507 "Relation for collecting station buildings that are not part of relations" seems to contain a lot of highways and landuse areas which have nothing to do with station buildings.

Is this intentional? If so, why?

130428159

I'm fairly sure that Canning Town, Newham isn't in Hackney. I'm absolutely certain that importing traffic calming nodes right next to ones which had already been mapped was both careless and unhelpful.

If you want to explicitly specify a footpath, highway=footway already does that.

It doesn't do any harm to add the extra access tags, but you don't generally need to add horse=no or bicycle=no, or any of the other irrelevant options which the iD editor presents for footways (I wish it didn't). It can be worth adding bicycle=no where it is explicitly signed, but still isn't absolutely necessary.

The OSM wiki lists the UK's default access restrictions for different highway types here.
