Hi
The wikipedia and wikidata tags you added refer to the hospital object, not a single building.

The wikidata tag already existed on the hospital object and I have added the wikipedia tag there.

Cheers Phil

Hi again
Postcodes are not required on individual buildings as they are on the outer hospital object.

Are you mapping from the US?

Cheers Phil

Thank you, I have removed the duplicate hospital tags and added the correct tags where they exist such as here.

I have not removed any nodes but have left some with just a name. We do not have a scheme for mapping the internals of a hospital in OSM beyond things lke mapping Shropdoc as a doctors and outpatients as a clinic. Stores and porters loading bays are beyond the scope of OSM.

OSM does not have approval, the database is updated immediately but we do rely on local mappers providing peer review.

Hi, welcome to osm however your edits have gone a little bit wrong.
In OSM we follow the rule "One feature, one OSM element", see osm.wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element

Your edits have broken that, Captain Tom's Garden is a garden, not a hospital, there is only one hospital here, the RSH, that is mapped on the outer way.

OSM is a geographic database and if someone were to perform a query 'how many hospitals in Shropshire they would get a very wrong answer.

Are you mapping as part of your job?

Cheers Phil

Hi Nathaniel
Probably not removed but the tagging should be correct.

I am not sure of the tagging however you will get advice from the mailing list.

Cheers Phil

Hello, welcome to OSM and thank you for your edits however I am concerned that the tagging of these paths may cause problems for some map users.

The name Craig Pennant Scramble implies that a walker may need to use their hands, which is not the general understanding of a path.

The wiki page at highway=path?uselang=en suggests additional tags you can add, such as sac_scale to make the nature of the route clearer.

OSM has had concerns raised in the path where walkers following their smartphone app get into difficulties because it is not the walk along a clearly defined path they were expecting.

You may want to discuss this type of edit with the UK community who are very knowledgable, https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb

Thank you however you shouldn't be looking at Google maps when mapping in OSM, it is against their terms of use.

We do not normally map short term closures such as this because many data consumers only take OSM data very rarely and the closure can persist on maps long after it has been reopened. It is also likely to be missed in OSM and be spotted years later.

Exactly, from looking at the sabre wiki which says that the A6 was routed this way in 2014, not that the road opened in 2014.

These edits need to be reverted.

140327004

Sabre roads isn't an acceptable source for OSM.

It doesn't make clear what license it is released under and contains no information as to where the information was obtained from.

140317282

Again what is the source of these dates?

Whilst Jubilee Way could well have opened in 2014, Barrow Street has existed forever.

To what ends are you making these edits?

Cheers Phil

Hi, this looks a little odd. What legal signage is there here?

It looks like it is intended to access properties.

Cheers Phil

Hi, what is the source of all of the opening dates you are adding. They are all over the country which suggests something other than local knowledge?

Also are you sure Crusader Island opened 8 years after it was mapped?

Cheers Phil

Hi Chris
Please keep your changes to sensible areas, this has created a massive change boundary making it difficult for local mappers to see your changes.

This changeset should have been split between the changes in Staffordshire and those made in Powis. Please save before moving to another area.

Cheers Phil

way/1039032029#map=18/52.71145/-2.51578 is the link I am questioning. Am 100% sure there is no link to the primary.

What was the driver driving?

Is there any valid reason that Kingwood School should have name:be/ru/uk beyond Kings Wood can be translated into any number of languages. I could translate it into name:fr and name:cy but that doesn't mean I should as there is no actual usage.

I have seen silly English names added in OSM which no native English speaker ever uses, Triumphal Arch and Under the Linden's for example.

Wrong bridge, read the description.

Cheers Phil

140057949

Are sure about this?

This is a modern footbridge, built when the A55 was built. The historic bridge was demolished in 2000.

The references to CADW on the wikipedia page do not exist suggest the wikidata page is outdated/fictional.

A listed structure crossing a modern expressway really should have had alarmbells ringing and been checked more thoughtfully.

Please don't do that. The park certainly doesn't end at the centreline of the path.
It either stops where it did, or should have been extended to end the other side of that path.

Glueing landuse to the centreline of highways just makes editing more difficult for other mappers.

Cheers Phil

Personal note, reverted
