No. The tracks i restored are definitly verifiable, with very clear traces. There are even existing track remnants on the linked area (which you deleted too). And there is the USGS topo map layer from the 80s. And then there are older USGS aerial images, public domain too. The "verifiability" is not a problem at all.
"let me know if you know about any such objects in Poland - I will delete them" - Yes, deleting other peoples work is fun.

You don't know what railway=abandoned means. It means: Demolished railway, but still traces. Obvious traces here are the shapes of buildings (especially at osm.org/#map=17/33.73655/-84.40938) and other things. There is more than 400,000 km of railway=abandoned worldwide mapped, the data is rendered by openrailwaymap.org. Whats your problem with such data?
I restored the tracks at the linked area, as there isn't any good reason to delete these.

Wait, railway=abandoned is certainly not a tagging error. See the wikipage for what it means. (way/898568196/history)
Using "abandoned:railway" without "railway=*" is a tagging error. railway=abandoned means: "here was a track, but is has been removed. some traces are still there. The traces here are the cuttings in the wooded area.
abandoned:railway=rail (not =track!) would be correct, but only with railway=* together.

When keeping such roads, make sure to tag them as highway=track.

Be very careful with Bing in rural areas. It is almost always offset. Esri is almost always accurate, so use Esri/Esri Clarity as reference.

Hello, thanks for your contributions! However, you shouldn't tag every building as "prison". It would be better if you create an area for the entire prison, select "Prison", and add the name/adresss there. Otherwise: If someone queries the database for prisons, it looks like here are twenty prisons (since "amenity=prison" is used so often) - but here are only two. Same goes for the police station.

All? I deleted around 5 very small pieces of such lines. It is quite pointless to have such very small unconnected segments lying around, in my opinion

Hello, you can add such old railroads, BUT: If they ran on streets (tram tracks), you should add "railway=abandoned" tag to the road itself. Please do not draw a seperate way over the roads, because this makes editing extremely hard.
Message me of you need help.

I cutted it out.

To comment 2: Possibly. However, it could also be a sewage pipe. I don't know.

Public domain data, select State >Florida and County >Duval
My guess is that JEA owns the lines, and Peoples Gas System pays JEA to use the lines.

4 Jahre zu spät aber ... Revert rein aus Prinzip? Ernsthaft?

Ob das so sinnvoll war? Zahlreiche Bahnstrecken haben jetzt wikipedia/wikidata-Tags. Diese gehören allerdings in die Streckenrelationen, nicht die Gleise an sich.
Ist jetzt nicht so schlimm, ich verlange jetzt keinen Revert oder so, ich wollte es nur erwähnt haben.
