| 61781976 by Ackman12 | 1 | 2018-08-19 07:42:43 UTC | Carnildo | I've deleted Creedonia.Don't add fictional things to the map -- it's a good way to get yourself blocked. If you want to create a fictional country, OpenGeoFiction.net is a project that lets you do so. |
| 61752999 by Rick Rupp | 1 | 2018-08-18 09:44:49 UTC | Carnildo | About a third of the buildings you added had "building=yes" on their nodes as well as on the way. I've fixed it, but you might want to re-evaluate whatever your workflow is to keep it from happening in the future. |
| 37750748 by mbrucker | 1 | 2017-07-25 03:19:29 UTC | HubMiner | Greetings, based on personal observations, I want to reduce sac_scale from T6 (set by you) to T2, for http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/242778134/#map=16/43.7575/-110.7443 and adjacent trails (I am familiar with). Please let me know if you have any objections. Reference: https://wiki.openstreetm... |
| 2 | 2018-08-17 06:45:01 UTC | Carnildo | I've reduced many of the trails to T1 or T2 based on my (sometimes rather hazy) memory. I've left Paintbrush Canyon at T3 because I've never hiked it, and in the aerial imagery, parts of the upper reaches look like they might be a bit tricky. | |
| 61697238 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-08-16 09:14:37 UTC | Carnildo | Zero lanes on the freeway off-ramp? That doesn't seem correct to me. |
| 2 | 2018-08-17 06:44:42 UTC | Howpper | Thank you for pointing that out, I have now fixed it. | |
| 61674749 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-08-15 04:24:39 UTC | Howpper | French spelling* |

| 3 | 2018-08-15 07:01:52 UTC | Carnildo | The place was named by French fur traders in the 1700s -- you can probably find at least as many French spellings as there were traders. | |
| 61674225 by venusian_green | 1 | 2018-08-15 06:57:39 UTC | Carnildo | "Dock" is for drydocks and similar ship-repair facilities. The tag you're looking for is "Pier", and the editor won't let you put it on points, only on lines and areas. |
| 61673204 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-08-15 01:23:33 UTC | Howpper | (Havana north of 8th). |
| 2 | 2018-08-15 06:31:36 UTC | Carnildo | As far as I can tell, the original city line was correct: the Spokane city limits run down the west side of Havana, the Spokane Valley city limits run down the east side, and Havana itself is in the county. | |
| 61665950 by Farkad5 | 1 | 2018-08-15 05:37:24 UTC | Carnildo | You might want to work on your aim. A number of the crossings you've added recently have been close to, but not actually on, the point where a pedestrian way intersects the road. |
| 2 | 2018-08-15 17:19:08 UTC | Farkad5 | corrected | |
| 61665478 by Farkad5 | 1 | 2018-08-15 05:23:27 UTC | Carnildo | When you're editing in Spokane County, Esri World Imagery is far sharper and better-aligned than the other options, and is nearly as new as Bing or DigitalGlobe Standard. |
| 2 | 2018-08-15 17:13:55 UTC | Farkad5 | Ok | |
| 61622278 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-08-14 05:53:03 UTC | Carnildo | Where are you getting the route of this railroad from? I'm not seeing evidence of it in the aerial imagery, and neither the 1903, 1961, nor 1987 USGS topo maps of the area show it. |
| 2 | 2018-08-17 07:49:06 UTC | Howpper | Sorry for taking so long to respond. http://www.historicmapworks.com/Map/US/1313215/Page+026+++Township+52+N++Range+3+W+++Chilco++Hayden+Lake++Cedar+Mtn/Kootenai+County+1959/Idaho/ | |
| 61484899 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-08-09 05:47:27 UTC | Carnildo | Where are you getting the name "3I" from? Looking at historic topo maps, it appears to be "state highway 31", and I can't find a reference to it that's less than 68 years old. |
| 2 | 2018-08-17 07:54:33 UTC | Howpper | I am 100% certain it was 3I. It took it's name from Primary State Highway 3. There were 22 primary state highways, so it couldn't have been 31. Secondary state highways always had letters and took their number from their parent route. Here is a shield of it: https://www.aaroads.com/shields/img/WA/WA... | |
| 3 | 2018-08-17 08:09:08 UTC | Howpper | The most likely reason for the lack of info on it is the fact that it was decommissioned before the state highway renumbering in 1964. | |
| 61205111 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-07-31 05:20:50 UTC | Carnildo | Where are you getting that this has a traffic signal? It was a four-way stop when I drove through a few weeks ago, and I haven't heard of any construction since. |
| 2 | 2018-07-31 20:41:10 UTC | Howpper | I has a "blinker" traffic signal (one blinking red light on each side) above the intersection to accompany the stop signs, so I added it as such. | |
| 61181396 by Crete Greece | 1 | 2018-07-30 07:48:28 UTC | Carnildo | Where are you getting the street layout of Tecomate from? It doesn't show up on any of the aerial imagery. |
| 61153017 by Crete Greece | 1 | 2018-07-29 19:40:10 UTC | Carnildo | Don't vandalize the map. |
| 61101492 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-07-27 08:43:11 UTC | Carnildo | Please stop making changes based on outdated maps. Inland Empire south of 23rd hasn't been an arterial since it was cut off from US-195. |
| 61100948 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-07-27 08:24:15 UTC | Carnildo | Maxwell between Washington and Ash was re-engineered earlier this year in a way that's significantly reducing the traffic flow. |
| 60941579 by jcp777 | 1 | 2018-07-22 08:18:00 UTC | Carnildo | Are you sure this is a state park? The Flathead County Parks website lists it as a county park: https://flathead.mt.gov/parks_rec/parks.php |
| 60885946 by gibeautc | 1 | 2018-07-20 07:11:16 UTC | Carnildo | I'm not sure what you were trying to do here, but I don't think it worked. |
| 2 | 2018-07-20 18:48:09 UTC | gibeautc | What seems wrong? I created a relationship that only contained the waterway(no bank, or other features) for Salmon. This mainly was for some external mapping and could be deleted if need be, but not sure what the issue is. | |
| 3 | 2018-07-20 20:16:30 UTC | Carnildo | The "Salmon River" relation you created has a waterway type of "LowerSalmon", which isn't a valid type, it includes a seemingly arbitrary part of the Snake River, and it excludes a similarly-arbitrary part of the Salmon River. | |
| 60881449 by jcp777 | 1 | 2018-07-20 06:31:36 UTC | Carnildo | Drawing one thing on top of another like you've done here doesn't work very well.If you want to indicate that "Cosway Road" permits foot traffic, you should select it and set the "foot" allowed-access field to "yes". If instead there's a trail running parallel to &... |
| 60739729 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-07-16 02:30:09 UTC | Carnildo | If you're going to be editing in Spokane County, please use Esri World Imagery. It's considerably newer, sharper, and better-aligned than Mapbox Satellite. |
| 60692332 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-07-13 23:42:29 UTC | Carnildo | You might want to read https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relations/Relations_are_not_Categories -- "Spokane County Highway Bike Routes" seems like a textbook example of what relations should not be used for. |
| 60646750 by baradam | 1 | 2018-07-13 04:29:25 UTC | Carnildo | You appear to have traced a half-dozen utility trailers here, in addition to the buildings. |
| 2 | 2018-07-13 05:44:46 UTC | baradam | Forwarding the coordinates will solve the question, I do thousands of points and hundreds of object in one change set much different than most editors. | |
| 3 | 2018-07-13 07:57:48 UTC | Carnildo | I noticed it at the intersection of "County Road" and "D Street": https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/60646750#map=19/45.93509/-116.12952The five smallest building outlines there look more like utility trailers than buildings. | |
| 4 | 2018-07-13 14:40:46 UTC | baradam | Here is the situation, of the 5 unites 2 have remained in place to this day, many of the others were in place from 2004 until 2011. So, it is a question of usage or junk. | |
| 5 | 2018-07-13 14:51:13 UTC | baradam | Also, the imagery which I use is about 8 years old since it is the clearest for building and any details. Even the building to the west has structurally changed. Time changes even structures, some come and others go. | |
| 6 | 2018-07-13 19:50:43 UTC | Carnildo | When I'm mapping buildings, I'll flip back and forth between the clearest available imagery (usually Esri Clarity, but sometimes Esri World) and the newest available imagery (usually DigitalGlobe Standard). I might also bring in a third image option if it's got useful shadows (eg. for telling if so... | |
| 7 | 2018-07-13 22:02:35 UTC | baradam | Hey, why don't you just come on over and do the buildings in Grangeville and I'll do the roads. That way I will not get them confused and we can get twice as much done. | |
| 8 | 2018-07-13 23:42:21 UTC | baradam | Yet better, US95 & County Road have an overlay problem. I tried to fix it but without destroying the nodes on the boundry, which I stay away from them unless downloading from a dataset, needs to be fix. Could you look at that. | |
| 60622546 by jcp777 | 1 | 2018-07-12 06:41:36 UTC | Carnildo | Normally, a large river such as the Stillwater or the Flathead is mapped in two parts: an area or multipolygon tracing the banks, and a line down the middle following the path of greatest flow. The "River" tag and the name of the river go on the the central line, while the outer edge is t... |
| 60622027 by jcp777 | 1 | 2018-07-12 06:14:45 UTC | Carnildo | The usual tags for the roads in/accessing a parking lot are "Parking aisle", "Driveway", or if you're not sure how to classify it, the generic "Service road". |
| 60583195 by jcp777 | 1 | 2018-07-11 04:14:37 UTC | Carnildo | This looks like it's a switching/transformer facility rather than a power-generating facility. The usual way to map these in OSM is to trace the fence line and tag it as "Substation", which I've done.(If I've missed something and there's a gas turbine or the like in there, feel free t... |
| 60557743 by jcp777 | 1 | 2018-07-10 06:49:27 UTC | Carnildo | If you're having trouble telling what shape a building is, please switch background imagery (the third or fourth button from the top on the right-hand side, the one that looks sort of like three stacked sheets of paper). What you've drawn here looks almost nothing like how the building appears in E... |
| 60557662 by jcp777 | 1 | 2018-07-10 06:27:53 UTC | Carnildo | If you want to map an island in a pond (or a courtyard in a building, or any other object with a hole in the middle), you want to create what OSM calls a "multipolygon":1) Trace the outer and inner edges.2) Select one of the edges, then shift-click to select the other one as well.3... |
| 60552276 by jcp777 | 1 | 2018-07-10 04:43:31 UTC | Carnildo | The correct way to add a bridge to part of an existing road/trail/whatever is to split the way at the ends of the bridge (right-click on the node at the end of the bridge and select the "scissors" icon), then select the part that represents the bridge and select the "bridge" stru... |
| 2 | 2018-07-10 05:10:33 UTC | jcp777 | Thanks for letting me know. Still getting to know all the tips and tricks and am still fairly new to this | |
| 60458295 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-07-06 19:38:27 UTC | Carnildo | Is it really signed "Sunset Highway" all the way across the state? My experience from driving it was that the "Sunset Highway" signage stopped a bit before Reardan, replaced by generic "SR 2" or "US 2" signs, except where the road picked up a new name while p... |
| 60432783 by oormilavinod | 1 | 2018-07-06 01:20:58 UTC | Carnildo | It appears you deleted Wenatchee Valley College in this edit. Did you intend to do so? |
| 2 | 2018-07-06 04:06:27 UTC | oormilavinod | hello Carlindo, i did not intend to delete a feature . i was fixing an unconnected way in the with in the parking lot. and from the history i see that a relation was deleted. | |
| 3 | 2018-07-06 05:40:33 UTC | Carnildo | Okay, I've undeleted it. | |
| 60314642 by kpier08 | 1 | 2018-07-01 09:08:47 UTC | Carnildo | Welcome to OpenStreetMap!A couple of tips for better mapping:1. You can change the background imagery by clicking on the "Background settings" tab in the editor -- the one that looks sort of like three stacked sheets of paper. Different imagery options are newer, or sharper, or be... |
| 60281692 by Palolo | 1 | 2018-06-29 21:14:16 UTC | Carnildo | Don't use the "name" field to describe the object -- it's clear that what you're adding is a bench from the fact that it's tagged as a bench.If something doesn't have a name (and benches almost never do), it's fine to leave the "name" field blank. |
| 2 | 2018-07-01 14:15:14 UTC | Palolo | #Carnildo thanks for the comment. Unfortunately OSMAnd requires the name tag. | |
| 60229575 by TheOne872 | 1 | 2018-06-28 10:25:38 UTC | Carnildo | When you're adding businesses to the map, it's helpful if you tag them with what sort of business they are, to let people search for them by type as well as by name. For example, "Rod's Harvest Foods" sounds like it's a supermarket.The editor's got a huge selection of tags you can cho... |
| 60083589 by DanteVento | 1 | 2018-06-23 00:19:20 UTC | Carnildo | Welcome to OpenStreetMap!A couple things to keep in mind for future mapping:1) The usual practice for mapping schools is to put the school name on the school grounds, and only put a name on the school building if it's different from the school name.2) "Living Street" is pretty ... |
| 2 | 2018-06-23 00:30:25 UTC | DanteVento | Thanks for the tips on the "living street" and school formatting. I will definitely keep those in mind.On your 3rd point, Clodfelter Road doesn't connect there anymore. So while it should have been a "road" it was purposefully not connected. I live in the area and the satelli... | |
| 3 | 2018-06-23 01:45:14 UTC | Carnildo | For a road that seems like it should connect but doesn't, there's a way to indicate that, but it's not the most obvious thing in the world. Click on the end of the road (you should get a pulsing circle to show that just the end has been selected rather than the whole road) and search for a tag call... | |
| 4 | 2018-06-23 01:54:09 UTC | DanteVento | Thank you! I'll try and be more meticulous until I've got a better feel for the process. | |
| 60044504 by jcp777 | 1 | 2018-06-22 05:58:12 UTC | Carnildo | When you're adding a building, there's an easy way to get square corners: once you've drawn and tagged it, right-click and select "Square" (the third option from the right-click menu), or highlight it and hit the "S" key. The editor will adjust the corners to the nearest 90-degr... |
| 60015122 by jcp777 | 1 | 2018-06-21 06:13:17 UTC | Carnildo | The original tracing of the building was more accurate. The reason it appears to have a point on the west side is that the satellite wasn't quite directly overhead when it took the picture. This makes the peak of the roof appear to stick out to one side. |
| 60013882 by jcp777 | 1 | 2018-06-21 05:53:02 UTC | Carnildo | This building contains a Target, a Best Buy, and probably at least one not-yet-mapped business between the two. Putting the name "Target" on it is both incorrect and redundant with the existing mapping of the Target store. |
| 60024571 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-06-21 01:36:59 UTC | Carnildo | Are you sure these are reservoirs? From the air, they look rather like settling ponds for treating sewage. |
| 59994762 by Tori B | 1 | 2018-06-20 05:21:17 UTC | Glassman | Tori,The view point isn't accessible from any trail or highway. Is it in the correct place? Also, when you make wide spread edits, it is a good idea to upload after each area is done. |
| 2 | 2018-06-20 08:11:36 UTC | Carnildo | Glassman, Tori B is editing with Maps.me. From what I understand of how the program works, they've got no control over how often or how much they upload at any given time. | |
| 59982148 by Koho3213 | 1 | 2018-06-20 07:01:25 UTC | Carnildo | I think there are a whole lot of people who would be rather unhappy to find you've made their houses part of a state park. |
| 59981969 by Koho3213 | 1 | 2018-06-20 06:46:26 UTC | Carnildo | Many of the programs and websites that make use of OpenStreetMap only update once a month, if that. Because of this, it's not advisable to map things (such as the typical fireworks stand) that only exist for a few weeks every year. |
| 59964810 by Koho3213 | 1 | 2018-06-19 09:36:48 UTC | Carnildo | When you're mapping a stream, draw it from upstream to downstream, so that the flow direction will show up properly on the map. I've fixed Ashley Creek for you, but keep it in mind for the future. |
| 59964639 by Koho3213 | 1 | 2018-06-19 09:22:18 UTC | Carnildo | The school name is already present on the school grounds. No need to repeat it on the school building. |
| 59964770 by Koho3213 | 1 | 2018-06-19 08:22:55 UTC | Carnildo | Is there a reason why you're insisting this is a drydock rather than a pier? |
| 59961294 by Koho3213 | 1 | 2018-06-19 07:45:31 UTC | Carnildo | Don't vandalize the map. It's likely to get your account blocked. |
| 59961236 by Koho3213 | 1 | 2018-06-19 07:37:40 UTC | Carnildo | You've dragged two intersections across the map, connecting random roads, and you've moved a building to the middle of a third intersection. I've fixed them, but please be more careful in the future. |
| 59961102 by Koho3213 | 1 | 2018-06-19 07:31:55 UTC | Carnildo | The "Car Parking" tag is really for purpose-built parking areas, not places where people happen to leave cars sometimes. |
| 59960886 by Koho3213 | 1 | 2018-06-19 07:07:50 UTC | Carnildo | If something doesn't have a name, you can just leave the "name" field blank. |
| 59957919 by Koho3213 | 1 | 2018-06-19 03:11:27 UTC | Carnildo | Please use meaningful changeset comments. A single period doesn't say anything, and is a pain to try to click on in the edit history. |
| 59957194 by Koho3213 | 1 | 2018-06-19 02:32:41 UTC | Carnildo | There's a "Depot Park" in the area already. If you need to make it larger, drag the corners, don't draw a second copy of the park over it. |
| 59882511 by Koho3213 | 1 | 2018-06-16 06:32:56 UTC | Carnildo | There are two problems with what you've added here:First, you've drawn the building outline over two different structures, presumably a house and a garage. If you're having trouble seeing things in the background imagery, try switching to a different background with the "background setting... |
| 59854021 by tedhodapp | 1 | 2018-06-15 01:50:22 UTC | Carnildo | Did you forget to tag what sort of road this is? |
| 2 | 2018-06-15 01:55:48 UTC | tedhodapp | Not sure how to do this. It is an unmaintained dirt road. | |
| 3 | 2018-06-15 04:02:39 UTC | Carnildo | It's probably what OpenStreetMap considers a "track".To tag the road, start editing, and highlight a section of the road you created. Enter "track" into the search field on the left, and it should bring up "Unmaintained Track Road" as one of the options. Click on ... | |
| 4 | 2018-06-15 18:17:51 UTC | tedhodapp | I went in and tagged each segment. | |
| 59826519 by wambacher | 1 | 2018-06-14 04:15:26 UTC | Carnildo | Did something go wrong with your edit here? A boundary_type of "border_type" doesn't strike me as correct. |
| 2 | 2018-06-14 04:40:40 UTC | alester | Agreed. "boundary_type" doesn't even seem to be a documented key, let alone that with a value of "border_type". | |
| 3 | 2018-06-14 21:00:33 UTC | wambacher | sorry, typing error. should be border_type=aboriginal_lands.but why did i? there are about 33.400 admin boundaries with "border_type=X" and about 170 with boundary_type=Xsee list: https://wambachers-osm.website/osm/data/all_boundaries_tags.txti would like to consolidate this ta... | |
| 4 | 2018-06-14 21:09:33 UTC | wambacher | btw: Goldstream and Yarmouth do have admin_level=8 but Skowkale does not.Think they should be tagged all the same. But with or without al=8? you decide. | |

| 59686232 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-06-10 02:27:46 UTC | Carnildo | If these have the usual "Authorized and emergency vehicles only" sign, the correct tagging is "access=no, emergency=yes". Tagging them as "access=permissive" means that anyone can use them, and routing software will tell people to make U-turns across them when they mis... |
| 59514082 by Natfoot | 1 | 2018-06-04 01:36:30 UTC | Carnildo | A quick tip: when you're working in Spokane County, Esri World Imagery is generally the best option. Bing and DigitalGlobe Standard are usually a bit newer, and Esri Clarity usually has better contrast, but Esri World Imagery is far sharper than any of them, and almost always better aligned. |
| 59446437 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-06-01 04:43:33 UTC | Carnildo | Two important things to notice about "North North Lane":First, the name ends in "Lane". This is a nearly-infalliable way to identify privately-owned roads in Spokane County. As such, "officially a road" is meaningless -- the property owner can freely make changes ... |
| 59446672 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-06-01 02:40:45 UTC | Carnildo | Um, that map you're citing as a source is over a century old. If "Dragoon" ever existed as more than a named railroad stop, it doesn't today. |
| 59414886 by Carnildo | 1 | 2018-05-31 05:58:10 UTC | Howpper | It's classified as a major collector by the WSDOT. What are your thoughts on this? |
| 2 | 2018-05-31 05:58:17 UTC | Howpper | http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/data/tools/geoportal/?config=FunctionalClass&layers=%7B%22layer0%22%3A%5B%5D%2C%22Functional+Class%22%3A%5B0%2C1%2C2%2C3%2C4%5D%7D¢er=-117.48038470741773%2C47.70199464498471&zoom=6 | |
| 3 | 2018-05-31 18:43:00 UTC | Carnildo | I think you shouldn't be relying on WSDOT for road classification -- they make mistakes from time to time. Spokane County classifies it as "Local" (ie. the lowest importance class), and on-the-ground observations support that.A quick look at the WSDOT map for Spokane shows five places... | |
| 59412062 by fusionZONE | 1 | 2018-05-31 01:52:40 UTC | Carnildo | Did you know that your business will be much easier to find if you tag it as a "car dealership" rather than merely as an address point? |
| 45608038 by Glassman | 1 | 2018-05-23 22:34:10 UTC | Carnildo | And here we see the hazards of using sans-serif fonts. That was a capital 'i' in the street name, not a lowercase 'L'. |
| 59191333 by nhanway | 1 | 2018-05-23 04:49:52 UTC | Carnildo | I'm pretty sure Hill Airport still exists. The service road a bit to the west of the airport marker is a bit wider than normal for a farm access road, but it perfectly matches the FAA's description of the Hill Airport runway (mixed concrete and gravel, 1680 feet long, bearing 20 degrees magnetic. |
| 59132761 by rolwirth | 1 | 2018-05-21 02:39:55 UTC | Carnildo | You appear to have encountered a bit of terminology confusion here. OSM uses "dock" for the area of water the ship goes in, and "pier" for the thing you tie the ship to. I've fixed this up, but it's something to keep in mind in the future. |
| 59069700 by hofoen | 1 | 2018-05-19 00:01:15 UTC | Carnildo | I've reverted your changing of County Road 250 to a service road. Service roads don't normally extend for 15 miles, providing significant local access. |
| 58939541 by compdude | 1 | 2018-05-14 08:46:43 UTC | Carnildo | I think you've got a short-circuit in the roundabout: someone going from westbound Kennedy Road to northbound Webber Canyon Road won't get "take the first exit from the roundabout" in their driving directions. |
| 2 | 2018-05-14 14:36:20 UTC | compdude | Thanks for pointing this out; I just did an edit to fix this issue. | |
| 58860523 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-05-10 23:35:42 UTC | Carnildo | If you're going to be adjusting road geometry in Spokane County, please use the "Esri World Imagery" option. It's newer, sharper, and better-aligned than the Bing imagery. |
| 58812863 by The Bendell Law Firm | 1 | 2018-05-09 22:47:58 UTC | Carnildo | The 1100 west block of Park Place is somewhat to the southwest of where you added this. I've moved your business to my best guess for the correct location. |
| 58801524 by ItsMrBiG | 1 | 2018-05-08 23:14:55 UTC | Carnildo | If the businesses are no longer in operation, you should also remove the business-type tagging. Right now, the former Spirit and Food Mart will show up on the map as an unnamed gas station and convenience store. |
| 58713478 by Jfrandsen | 1 | 2018-05-05 19:36:08 UTC | Carnildo | The correct way to indicate that a golf course is private is to add the "access=private" tag, not to change what sort of thing it's tagged as. |

| 58629555 by CobaltScyne | 1 | 2018-05-03 07:10:22 UTC | Carnildo | Please don't add nonsense to the map. There's no shortage of real things you could map instead. |
| 58585217 by GrantRA | 1 | 2018-05-01 19:32:01 UTC | Carnildo | Did you make a mistake here? A cycleway that forbids bicycle usage strikes me as rather improbable. |

| 58355618 by kfremd | 1 | 2018-04-24 05:26:44 UTC | Carnildo | When you're editing in Spokane County, *please* use ESRI World Imagery. It's far sharper and better-aligned than Bing, and I think it's slightly newer, as well. |
| 2 | 2018-04-24 15:15:38 UTC | kfremd | Thank you for the insight and suggestion! I will switch over to ESRI World Imagery for future edits in this area. | |

| 57978041 by GITNE | 1 | 2018-04-10 20:49:22 UTC | Carnildo | Could you please be more careful in your editing? You dragged pieces of the Lewiston city limits across the map at least twice in this changeset. |
| 2 | 2018-04-11 10:19:13 UTC | GITNE | Right, sorry. JOSM did not download the admin border while some nodes shared highways and borders. Next time, I'll see what I can do to prevent this from happening again. Thank you for the quick fix. | |
| 57976724 by Polyglot | 1 | 2018-04-10 20:36:11 UTC | Carnildo | I sure hope you got this right, since there's no way a changeset this big can be properly reviewed. In particular, there's a good chance you've misattributed some things named after Martin Luther, the Protestant reformer, as being named after Martin Luther King Jr., the civil rights activist. (And... |

| 3 | 2018-04-16 06:54:53 UTC | Polyglot | Hi Paul,Could you add those name:etymology:wikidata tags on those objects. I tried to find them, but couldn't based on the name tag alone (and then I started to map public transport again :-) ) | |

| 57678628 by cougMapper | 1 | 2018-03-31 09:28:05 UTC | Carnildo | It looks like the old mapping of those buildings was an attempt to use the "Simple 3D buildings" system (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Simple_3D_buildings), but they didn't get it quite right. |
| 57523509 by Howpper | 1 | 2018-03-28 07:37:02 UTC | Carnildo | Is there a reason why you say this has an elevation of 503 *meters* rather than 503 *feet*? The USGS topo map for the area, in particular, shows this as being surrounded by a 500-foot contour line. |
| 57344980 by Paul_ | 1 | 2018-03-25 08:04:18 UTC | Carnildo | Is Midway really a reversible one-way street? |
| 57337330 by pcavan1 | 1 | 2018-03-25 07:48:29 UTC | Carnildo | Thanks for helping improve the map.20 MPH is an unusual speed limit for a residential street in Spokane -- usually the limit is 25. Are you sure it's correct? |
| 57308908 by The_Oak | 1 | 2018-03-25 07:34:06 UTC | Carnildo | Don't use Google Streetview to add things to the map. Google tends to object to that, often in legally unpleasant ways. |
| 57308343 by Raikua | 1 | 2018-03-25 07:32:03 UTC | Carnildo | Please don't make up features just to fill in the map. If there's nothing there, there's nothing there. |
| 56722038 by mambus | 1 | 2018-02-27 21:35:32 UTC | Carnildo | Are these former missile sites you're adding still in use as military land, or should they be tagged as "historic:military" plus their current civilian use? |
| 2 | 2018-02-27 22:01:46 UTC | mambus | its former, but i dont know what happened to the land? i thought when you dont see much civilian stuff going on it might still be in goverment hands? no idea though | |
| 3 | 2018-02-27 22:08:20 UTC | Carnildo | There's a thriving real-estate market for used missile silos (eg. http://www.missilebases.com/), so many if not all of these are in private hands. None of the ones you've added are in parts of the state where I can easily check ownership, though. | |
| 4 | 2018-03-14 06:50:05 UTC | Carnildo | Passed by this one on Sunday on my way back from a hike, and it looked decidedly civilian. I've removed the "landuse=military" tag. | |
| 57018699 by sm8000 | 1 | 2018-03-09 05:00:35 UTC | Carnildo | I'm not seeing any of the usual signs of this being a track, such as the road wandering off into a field or forest, or a road that's just a couple of ruts worn into the ground from repeated use. In the aerial imagery, it looks more like a "minor/unclassified road", which is what I've re-t... |
| 2 | 2018-03-09 05:16:32 UTC | sm8000 | Thank you for the comment. I agree with you. I was trying to get appear as an un-paved road, ie, not a yellow or a white line but something else. There are many roads in my area that are unpaved but look the same as paved roads on the basemap. I hope my question makes sense. | |
| 3 | 2018-03-09 19:24:25 UTC | Carnildo | The display on the OpenStreetMap website doesn't currently distinguish between paved and unpaved roads, but other users of the OSM data do. For example, the OsmAnd map software will overlay brown (dirt), light grey (gravel, generic unpaved), or light yellow (sand) dashes on a road to indicate the s... | |

| 56938197 by Amanda Nyambura Irungu | 1 | 2018-03-08 07:51:25 UTC | Carnildo | Please be more careful with your editing. You broke Lake Victoria by removing part of the coastline. |
| 56808426 by thetornado76 | 1 | 2018-03-02 09:48:41 UTC | Carnildo | I'm not sure all of these were using "grade" to mean "tracktype". For example, an asphalt surface in excellent condition is hardly a "grade3" tracktype. |
| 2 | 2018-03-02 14:07:35 UTC | thetornado76 | I had changed only grade=x to tracktype=gradex. If there not highway=track maybe grade=x is wrong and can removed.If surface=asphalt you are right there is grade3 wrong. | |

| 2 | 2018-02-20 14:40:43 UTC | carlb | I've reverted that one node as an error; the rest of this changeset is all Canada (BC, AB, ON, QC, NB, NS) and the entire chain is indeed gone in those locations, but King County WA is likely to be still extant for now. | |

| 56231064 by Glassman | 1 | 2018-02-10 09:30:40 UTC | Carnildo | Is there a reason you deleted a bunch of logging roads and at least one driveway, rather than re-tagging them as tracks and service roads? |
| 56178367 by nathanieljwise | 1 | 2018-02-09 09:09:53 UTC | Carnildo | I'm not sure how you managed it, but you partially deleted a park in Austria in addition to your changes in the Tacoma area. I've fixed things, but please be more careful in the future. |

| 3 | 2018-01-23 10:13:02 UTC | Carnildo | I got out my most recent survey photos, and as of September 24 of last year, the northernmost section (the part mapped as a service road) was still a bare dirt track, showing no rehabilitation effort. Do you have more recent observations? | |
| 4 | 2018-01-26 17:27:14 UTC | pslarkin | I requested a response from Land Expressions, the contractor responsible for the work. I was forwarded to Avista, who has yet to respond. I'll reply here when I get more information. | |

| 2 | 2018-01-15 21:08:29 UTC | Mxdanger | You really need to add descriptions of what you're doing. At the very least include a source. We have no idea of the meaning of this edit and if it's correct. | |
| 55218284 by megcda | 1 | 2018-01-08 08:28:05 UTC | Carnildo | Is there a reason why you've duplicated a number of existing roads? A changeset comment of "#msftbusinessapps" isn't very informative. |
| 54912996 by seahorse41 | 1 | 2017-12-30 00:53:57 UTC | Carnildo | The usual ways to add addresses are to either trace a building and put the address data on it, or add an isolated point and put the address data on that. I don't know how map software will handle addresses placed on the ends of roads. |
| 2 | 2017-12-30 05:57:48 UTC | seahorse41 | Are the addresses at the intersection of driveway and named road okay to leave as is? Is it just the addresses at the other end of the driveway that need to be deleted? | |
| 3 | 2017-12-31 04:39:28 UTC | Carnildo | I don't know. Address points on roads are sufficiently out of the ordinary that I've got no idea if it will be handled properly or not. | |
| 55017783 by nirmac04 | 1 | 2017-12-30 02:09:06 UTC | Carnildo | Could you please do your "stuff" in smaller areas at a time? A change like this that includes things in both Washington and Alabama will show up in the map history for virtually the entire United States. |

| 54944859 by Ann4567 | 1 | 2017-12-30 01:36:07 UTC | Carnildo | Please don't abbreviate street names. It's easy for a computer to convert a word to an abbreviation if it needs to save space, but it's very difficult to go the other direction. (For example, should "St" be expanded to "Street", "State", or "Saint"?) |

| 54874875 by seahorse41 | 1 | 2017-12-27 18:14:43 UTC | mueschel | Hi,you added the new key "County Road" to three roads. This looks like a mistake. Could you check and fix this tag?Cheers, Jan |
| 2 | 2017-12-27 18:32:58 UTC | seahorse41 | @mueschelHi Jan, Thanks for the pointer/advice. Should I name it 'CR ###' instead or is there a better way to tag which roads Are county (public) roads? I have the official list with me, and most are classified as Residential or Minor/Unclassified now. I see that CR tag is available only with Tert... | |
| 3 | 2017-12-29 01:19:41 UTC | Carnildo | If I'm understanding the meaning of the "County Road" tag correctly, I think the best thing to do would be to use the "ref" tag with a value of "CR ###", similar to how state highways get "ref" tags such as "WA 21". | |
| 54852058 by Rolan Guy | 1 | 2017-12-28 23:50:13 UTC | Carnildo | Some of the hotels you've added are on decidedly warehouse-looking buildings. Are you sure you've got the locations right? |
| 2 | 2018-01-03 01:12:46 UTC | Mxdanger | I checked the location of the nodes on Google, in the same coordinates, and it showed already existing buildings.

| 54630223 by Darth_Vader | 1 | 2017-12-14 19:14:43 UTC | naoliv | Hi, Juggalo_Kyle.It seems that you did remove 4 areas which were representing some schools. For example, the White Knoll High School https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/546860888/historyDid you see something wrong with the objects, maybe? Or there was another reason to remove them? |
| 2 | 2017-12-18 16:36:59 UTC | naoliv | Juggalo_Kyle, I restored the school areas. Note that these areas are representing the school grounds and not the school building, for example.Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any doubts. | |
| 3 | 2017-12-19 05:23:16 UTC | Darth_Vader | The "school grounds" detail affects apps for people who work, visit, and interact with these places in a negative way. Myself being one of them. In order to prevent this, this detail should not be mapped. Labeling the school building is detail enough. The "school grounds" detail ... | |
| 4 | 2017-12-19 09:30:54 UTC | freebeer | A better philosophy for you to grasp is, OpenStreetMap documents the world as it exists.We do not map for the app, we map reality.We map landuse.These are school grounds, and that is fact.If these facts bother you, take it up with your app, it is not for OSM to pander to the apps or their us... | |
| 5 | 2017-12-19 10:24:20 UTC | naoliv | Which app you are using that makes this looks like an error?You should try to fix it in the app that you are using (by contacting the developers, maybe), instead removing a valid data that everybody else uses.And again, please, don't remove these areas. | |
| 6 | 2017-12-19 14:47:07 UTC | Darth_Vader | If you insist on creating problems for the people that actually live around these places, the locals and myself, then I will create problems for everyone else by creating multiple accounts and mass deleting features all around the world. | |
| 7 | 2017-12-19 15:03:54 UTC | woodpeck | Darth_Vader, what you are threatening here is computer vandalism and it is illegal in South Carolina. Participating in such activity can severely affect your school/college experience or career. Think twice before you do anything you regret later - it's not worth it. | |
| 8 | 2017-12-20 22:47:43 UTC | Carnildo | Naoliv, I'm pretty sure the app in question is "Pokemon Go": it doesn't spawn Pokemon on school grounds, but it does spawn them on meadows, grass, forests, and sand -- or in other words, exactly the detail that Darth_Vader has added to Carolina Springs Elementary School. | |
| 9 | 2017-12-21 11:26:45 UTC | naoliv | @Carnildo it seems to be the case, indeed. Yesterday a friend also sent some links, like https://pokemongo.gamepress.gg/q-a/poke-spawns-stopped-my-city-college which says "Niantic has stopped pokemon spawning in schools." | |

| 2 | 2017-12-17 19:25:45 UTC | Carnildo | iD has a built-in function for squaring up the corners of an object to the nearest 45-degree angle: either hit the "S" key or right-click and select "Square" from the menu that appears. I don't know how you'd use either of them on a tablet, though. | |
| 54690272 by mstrsknk | 1 | 2017-12-17 06:05:45 UTC | Carnildo | You don't need to put descriptions such as "home" in the "name" field -- it's obvious that a building is a house because it's tagged as such. |
| 54646841 by Andrew colin | 1 | 2017-12-16 00:16:14 UTC | Carnildo | Is Dart-Lo a public park, or a private youth camp? (I'm not sure how you'd tag the latter, but calling it a "park" would be misleading.) |
| 2 | 2017-12-16 21:12:17 UTC | Andrew colin | I couldn't find a better tag for it, i saw another tagged similarly. | |
| 54646943 by Andrew colin | 1 | 2017-12-15 23:22:26 UTC | Carnildo | In case you haven't already noticed it, the "Esri World Imagery" for Spokane County is far sharper than the default Bing imagery -- it's detailed enough that it should show things like the cemetery fence. |
| 2 | 2017-12-16 21:13:58 UTC | Andrew colin | Thanks for the tip! I did most of the outlining by using the topographic map. I'll have to use that one when I put in the rest of the neighborhood. | |

| 54442093 by Captain_Phil | 1 | 2017-12-07 20:57:33 UTC | Carnildo | Thanks for the addition!In my experience, actual speed limits on offramps are rare. Is this one a legal limit (a white sign), or an advisory speed limit (a yellow sign)? It makes a difference in how they should be marked on the map. |
| 2 | 2017-12-07 21:05:19 UTC | Captain_Phil | It's a white DOT speed limit sign. Drivers at my company know this offramp very well as the company GPS says it's a 30mph zone even though the signage says 50. | |

| 54244593 by Thalmus084 | 1 | 2017-12-02 05:02:14 UTC | Carnildo | Thanks for the updates.A quick tip: this sort of short access road is usually better tagged as a "Driveway" or "Service road", rather than as a "Minor/Unclassified" or "Residential" road. |
| 54207246 by 0utrider | 1 | 2017-12-02 04:30:31 UTC | Carnildo | I'm not sure what you were trying to do here, but you re-named a section of a street as "Chelan Public Utility District".I've undone the change, but please be more careful in the future. |

| 52054464 by martefact | 1 | 2017-09-15 03:26:54 UTC | Carnildo | Which imagery did you use when adjusting the cliffs? Not all aerial photographs are created equal, and when tracing something with abrupt changes in height like this, it's critical that you use images with good orthorectification. |
| 2 | 2017-09-15 05:55:56 UTC | martefact | Hello Carnildo - I used/consulted multiple sources to adjust the cliffline geo. USGS Topo, multiple hires aerials including ortho and nonortho. I've also hiked the entirety of the butte recording GPS tracks. | |

| 51954547 by Natfoot | 1 | 2017-09-13 04:31:56 UTC | Carnildo | I've reverted this changeset. Yes, the current mapping throws up all sorts of automated QA errors, but fixing it properly involves an afternoon of hiking up and down the hillside to see how the trail network is adapting to the road and road-removal efforts. |
| 51988701 by Howpper | 1 | 2017-09-13 04:16:18 UTC | Carnildo | Why do you think this street is residential? It has an elevated speed limit, right-of-way over traffic on cross streets, is classified by the city as an arterial, and in general is How You Get Places in that part of town. In short, it looks an awful lot like a tertiary road. |
| 51829634 by jessbeutler | 1 | 2017-09-08 03:48:11 UTC | Carnildo | When adding building names, it helps if you also add the buildings, or at least indicate that the points you're adding *are* buildings. I've traced three of them, but Delta Delta Delta and Delta Sigma Phi don't clearly correspond to buildings. |
| 2 | 2017-09-08 04:53:10 UTC | jessbeutler | Hi Carnildo, thanks for the comment. I add these names on my Go Map!! app as I walk around and then add the buildings when I get back onto OSM later in the day. | |
| 3 | 2017-09-08 16:42:45 UTC | Carnildo | Does Go Map!! have a way of adding "building=yes" or similar when you're adding the name? Doing that would make it obvious that adding a standalone name wasn't a mistake. | |
| 51831394 by ashleyannmathew | 1 | 2017-09-08 05:29:48 UTC | Carnildo | This bridge is straight. It only appears bent in the imagery because of bad orthorectification. |

| 2 | 2017-09-01 23:05:33 UTC | archaeo | I interpred "Important roads that are not motorways." as a better description than 'Primary Road'. However, digging into it a bit I see that 'Primary Road' is indeed the better descriptor. | |
| 3 | 2017-09-01 23:06:40 UTC | archaeo | I haven't rolled back a changeset before - Can you point me in the right direction? | |
| 4 | 2017-09-01 23:45:21 UTC | Carnildo | I'm not sure how you'd do it in iD (the website editor). The standalone JOSM editor has a "reverter" plugin you can use for easy rollback of changesets: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM/Plugins/Reverter | |
| 50217496 by HubMiner | 1 | 2017-08-30 04:21:02 UTC | Carnildo | Please don't use "access=no" for brief construction closures.

| 51096013 by Greg_Rose | 1 | 2017-08-14 07:06:50 UTC | Carnildo | Where did you get the name "South H Street" from? The name fits the pattern for the area, but I drove that road a couple months back and couldn't find a street sign anywhere. |
| 50929123 by mac99201 | 1 | 2017-08-08 07:38:08 UTC | Carnildo | Not all arterials are primary roads. This one, in particular, is a winding two-lane road with a significant height restriction that is unlikely to ever see much traffic. |
| 50732344 by Carolus Rex | 1 | 2017-07-31 20:46:02 UTC | Carnildo | The building outline you drew for the Cambell House appears to cover two buildings. Which one is the actual Cambell House? |
| 2 | 2017-07-31 20:48:12 UTC | Carolus Rex | The larger on the left is the House, proper, the smaller is the carriage house for the Campbell House | |

| 50191300 by Carnildo | 1 | 2017-07-11 17:15:48 UTC | HubMiner | Thanks for fixing this; I wonder if there is a way to add that it could be closed at park's discretion (access=permissive?). |
| 2 | 2017-07-11 17:16:23 UTC | HubMiner | ...without messing up navigation applications. | |
| 3 | 2017-07-11 18:25:04 UTC | Carnildo | I don't know of any. Adding an additional "access:conditional=no @ winter" would express the seasonal closure without interfering with normal routing, but I don't know of any software that uses the "access:conditional" tag, and it doesn't cover the fact that the gate can be clos... | |
| 50189969 by HubMiner | 1 | 2017-07-11 04:04:23 UTC | Carnildo | When you add a normally-open gate to a road, it's important to add access information. Routing software is inconsistent about how it treats a gate with no information: some software defaults to "yes", while other software defaults to "no". |

| 2 | 2017-06-28 00:11:41 UTC | SD Mapman | My general rule is to stick business interstates as primary based on the route marker. However, feel free to change it if you have more immediate knowledge (which it sounds like you do). | |

On quick look this is a mechanical edit and should follow community guidelines: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct |
| 2 | 2017-06-19 19:43:05 UTC | PanierAvide | It is not an automated edit, it was using Maproulette (challenge about aerodromes). Each edit was made manually by myself. However, it spans over the country as Maproulette gives random tasks over the country. | |
| 3 | 2017-06-19 19:45:22 UTC | PanierAvide | See http://maproulette.org/map/1/117 | |
| 4 | 2017-06-19 20:02:03 UTC | manings | Thanks for reply. I haven't check the data completely but a quick look seems they are all good. However, I encourage you to upload as often as possbile so that we don't have a changeset that is too big. Thanks for mapping. | |
| 5 | 2017-06-19 20:14:24 UTC | PanierAvide | Oh OK, I was thinking not creating too much changesets was better. I will know it for the next time. Thanks for letting me know :-) | |
| 6 | 2017-06-19 20:26:23 UTC | Carnildo | Keeping the number of changesets down is okay, as long as the changes are grouped into a small geographic area. "Cleaned up all the old airports in Pike County" is fine; "cleaned up a hundred old airports scattered around the United States" isn't. Unfortunately, Maproulette giv... | |
| 7 | 2017-06-19 20:37:27 UTC | PanierAvide | Makes sense, but as you said it isn't easy to do so in Maproulette. We have a tool in France named OpenSolarMap which gives random tasks (about roof orientation), but when another task is available nearly, you do this before others. That way you can work on random tasks but in a small area. Maybe Ma... | |
| 49579079 by Spark1815 | 1 | 2017-06-16 18:37:43 UTC | Carnildo | Best practice for indicating a business is closed is to prefix the "shop" tag with "disused:" (for example, "disused:shop=doityourself"), and to do the same with the "name" tag if the signs have been removed. If the signs are still there, leaving the "na... |
| 49548354 by John78 | 1 | 2017-06-15 20:42:07 UTC | Carnildo | Standard practice for schools is that the name goes on the school grounds, not on the school building, except in unusual cases such as two schools sharing a campus, or when the building has a name different from that of the school. |
| 49539840 by Zibz | 1 | 2017-06-14 21:37:53 UTC | Carnildo | Please don't make up names for things. |
| 49514731 by John78 | 1 | 2017-06-14 00:49:23 UTC | Carnildo | It looks to me like the towers were already mapped. Is there some reason why you're adding them again? |
| 49425525 by John78 | 1 | 2017-06-12 08:30:05 UTC | Carnildo | The "name" field should only be used for actual names, not descriptions. For example, it's obvious that a walkway is a walkway because it's tagged as "highway=footway". |
| 49342085 by malick mbao | 1 | 2017-06-07 18:44:22 UTC | Carnildo | What are you trying to do that involves drawing large, untagged outlines? |
| 2 | 2017-06-08 16:04:07 UTC | SomeoneElse | I'm guessing that it got uploaded by mistake. I've reverted it in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/49371802 .Best Regards, Andy (DWG) | |
| 49289574 by bas57 | 1 | 2017-06-07 07:01:30 UTC | Carnildo | Please don't abbreviate names. It's easy for a computer to decide it needs to shorten "Lane" to "Ln" if it needs space; it's much harder to decide if "St" should be expanded to "Street" or "Saint". |
| 49211954 by Samuel Cabral Cruz | 1 | 2017-06-03 08:44:48 UTC | Carnildo | What are you testing, and since it pretty clearly didn't work, are you planning on reverting it? |
| 2 | 2017-06-03 17:15:14 UTC | Samuel Cabral Cruz | Hi Carnildo,I tried to revert them, but I didn't find how to! The purppose of the test was to extract information with osmapi library from python. I finally used a different API.May you give me more infos on how to revert a modification? | |
| 3 | 2017-06-03 18:14:03 UTC | Carnildo | For situations like this, where you want to simply revert everything, the best tool is probably JOSM (https://josm.openstreetmap.de/). You'll need to activate the "Reverter" plugin, which will give you a "Revert changeset" menu option in the "Data" menu. Enter the num... | |
| 4 | 2017-06-03 22:19:26 UTC | Samuel Cabral Cruz | Hey Carnildo,Could you confirm that I correctly reverted all the tests commits. | |
| 5 | 2017-06-04 02:34:49 UTC | Carnildo | Looks to me like you got everything. | |
| 49211527 by Thalmus084 | 1 | 2017-06-03 09:17:17 UTC | Carnildo | The "name" field should only be used for names, not for descriptions. Something like when a building was completed would go in the "start_date" field. |
| 49214116 by TheDutchMan13 | 1 | 2017-06-03 08:41:54 UTC | Carnildo | What TIGER data have you deemed unnecessary here? |

| 49056742 by TheVegitos | 1 | 2017-05-29 06:36:13 UTC | Carnildo | This isn't a park, it's a couple houses. |
| 48986087 by emem | 1 | 2017-05-26 09:44:24 UTC | Carnildo | On straight segments of ways, it's generally considered good practice to leave nodes at periodic intervals. Because of the way the OSM API works, if you download a region containing a way, but that way has no nodes in the area, the way isn't visible. |
| 2 | 2017-05-26 15:17:15 UTC | emem | I simplified the boundary to 33ft (which is grated, relatively coarse, but the staircases were 31ft on average, possibly resulting from 10m/pixel bitmaps) which took out about 90% of the nodes.The average spacing between nodes is now about 300ft, comparable to node spacing of roads and other featu... | |
| 3 | 2017-05-28 19:08:54 UTC | Carnildo | It looks like you're taking out far more nodes than you intend. For example, way 409571420 went from 72 nodes relatively evenly spaced over three miles, to just eight nodes, with a maximum gap between nodes of 2.25 miles. | |
| 48978010 by bella1996 | 1 | 2017-05-25 20:26:44 UTC | Carnildo | The Cabella's in Post Falls is already mapped (it's that big building to the southwest), so please stop adding it. |
| 48891940 by Radio1313 | 1 | 2017-05-22 21:32:33 UTC | Carnildo | That doesn't look very park-like to me. It looks like somebody's house. |
| 48826523 by emem | 1 | 2017-05-19 21:54:29 UTC | Carnildo | It's not clear what happened, but it looks like this edit may have broken the banks of the Spokane River. |
| 2 | 2017-05-20 02:01:45 UTC | emem | I just checked the updated slippy map tiles and they look fine. Also re-downloaded the data, which looks fine is JOSM, too. Plus I'm still the last editor of these traces, the changelog suggest no inintended edits done in that changeset to the river (just moved 3 nodes of it).I do see when zooming... | |
| 3 | 2017-05-20 02:28:28 UTC | emem | I tagged the mapnik tiles within this changeset dirty and most of them re-renderd now. I see no issue with the Spokane river. Can you confirm ? | |
| 4 | 2017-05-20 03:56:47 UTC | Carnildo | Looks good in both JOSM and the website map. | |
| 48825282 by emem | 1 | 2017-05-19 21:24:36 UTC | Carnildo | Why did you delete a section of the Little Pend Oreille NWR boundary? According to the official map (https://www.fws.gov/refuge/Little_Pend_Oreille/map.html), that's an inholding in the refuge, presumably consisting of privately-owned land. |
| 48694587 by Howpper | 1 | 2017-05-15 18:11:51 UTC | Carnildo | I drove this a few weeks ago. There are no markings to indicate that Columbia Street or Wahluke Street are part of WA-24, or that WA-24 starts north of the WA-26 underpass. There is, however, a very nice "End WA-24" sign just *south* of the underpass.(It was somewhat disconcerting to... |
| 2 | 2017-05-17 21:08:28 UTC | Howpper | This is not technically part of the highway, but you have to take this way going from Westbound WA-26 to Westbound WA-24, or when going from eastbound WA-24 to westbound WA-26. This is also the way all of the highway signs direct traffic to. | |
| 3 | 2017-05-17 21:10:47 UTC | Howpper | Tell me how you would go from Northbound Broadway avenue to Westbound highway 26, without taking Columbia Street | |
| 4 | 2017-05-18 00:46:28 UTC | Carnildo | Navigation systems use the "name" and/or "ref" fields of roads when giving directions. Giving something a name that doesn't reflect the signs on the ground causes those systems to give bad directions.Yes, the shortest route from eastbound WA-24 to westbound WA-26 is via Colu... | |
| 48653272 by David Crochet | 1 | 2017-05-13 16:29:37 UTC | sorcrosc | Please add a comment to your changesets. A dot is not an explanatory comment |
| 2 | 2017-05-13 18:21:03 UTC | Carnildo | Or at the very least, use more dots. It's tricky to click on a changeset link that small. | |
| 3 | 2017-05-13 18:24:05 UTC | sorcrosc | Yes, more dots for all :) | |
| 48549085 by Lora Elliott | 1 | 2017-05-10 04:19:23 UTC | Carnildo | Thanks for your contributions.Elevations in OpenStreetMap are always measured in meters. I've changed the elevation for Pendleton back, but keep it in mind for the future. |
| 48149112 by kh72022 | 1 | 2017-04-26 08:58:40 UTC | Carnildo | I noticed that you've mapped a number of things as "parking space". That's meant for mapping individual spaces in a parking lot; the tag for a parking lot is "car parking". |
| 47887666 by Ann4567 | 1 | 2017-04-18 06:31:41 UTC | Carnildo | I'm not sure what you were trying to do with this edit, but it left a number of roads stretched across the map. I've reverted the dragging, while leaving the change to the road type of https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/352858026 alone, but you should probably review things to make sure I got it rig... |
| 47848787 by lfn_3000 | 1 | 2017-04-16 22:13:26 UTC | Glassman | Please only add features that can be verified. I removed the parks and water features you added. I left all of your good edits. |
| 2 | 2017-04-17 07:39:33 UTC | Carnildo | Unless I missed something, there weren't any good edits. The two surviving changes (which I reverted) were to turn Hallmark Apartments from "landuse=residential" to "natural=residential", and turn Walla Walla University into a park. | |
| 47800105 by Mike Chamberlain | 1 | 2017-04-15 01:48:55 UTC | Glassman | Welcome to OSM - marking roads as private indicates that it is posted to allow only owners and others that are individually invited.

| 2 | 2017-04-15 06:56:10 UTC | Carnildo | This one's an odd case: the county has the name as "Highland *Drive*", which would imply a public road ("Lane" denotes a privately-owned road), but the parcel map doesn't have a right-of-way for it, instead showing it as running on private property. I don't recall a street sign ... | |
| 3 | 2017-04-15 18:46:10 UTC | Mike Chamberlain | The roads in question "belong" to our little community of 37 homes -- The Highlands Homeowners Association of Spokane.

| 4 | 2017-04-16 00:16:50 UTC | Glassman | The SCOUT parcel information probably comes from the assessor's office while the basemap imagery with labels is from their gis data. Parcel data is strange. Skagit County has a road data layer that is made from parcels information. In places it is off by many feet. Keep up the great work updatin... | |

| 47223514 by fidcastro | 1 | 2017-03-29 08:37:09 UTC | Carnildo | Wrong "Grandfather Mountain". The links you added were for one in North Carolina, not the one in Idaho. |
| 2 | 2017-04-18 09:41:32 UTC | fidcastro | Hi Carnildo, thank you for reverting the data. The attributes were added in error. I have reached out to OSM editors working in North Carolina. The other Grandfather Mountain is now searchable in nominatim and we are actively working to improve that data. Many thanks, Castro." | |
| 47109344 by markknp | 1 | 2017-03-24 23:43:50 UTC | Carnildo | Is there a reason why you're changing the river from the commonly-used "waterway=riverbank" to the rare "natural=riverbank"? |
| 2 | 2017-03-28 05:08:18 UTC | Carnildo | In the continued absence of a response, I've un-done this change. | |
| 3 | 2017-03-28 16:02:49 UTC | markknp | Carnildo, it was changed during testing of a software package. Is there a published standard or best practices for tags? They seem to be fairly random... | |

| 47163503 by sebastic | 1 | 2017-03-27 08:39:41 UTC | Carnildo | Could you do this in smaller chunks? I suspect this changeset is responsible for deleting the banks of the Columbia River between John Day Dam and McNary Dam, but it's such a huge changeset that none of the usual review tools works well with it. |
| 2 | 2017-03-27 08:58:34 UTC | sebastic | The tags we simply moved from the outer ways to the relation.Can you be more specific (e.g. map link) where between John Day Dam & McNary Dam the riverbanks are missing? | |
| 3 | 2017-03-27 17:59:19 UTC | Carnildo | I've fixed it already, but about ten hours ago, the ways making up the relation created in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/47194830#map=9/45.8153/-119.9671 had no tags and were not part of any relation.

| 2 | 2017-03-23 22:21:40 UTC | Caleb-G | Thanks Carnildo. Being new here, I'm not aware of the best-practices. Is there a good method to roll it back, or should I just manually add it again as a new trail? | |
| 3 | 2017-03-24 03:30:20 UTC | Carnildo | I've reverted the deletion. There's a tool in the JOSM editor to do this, but it's a bit tricky to get right if you're only trying to undo part of a changeset. | |
| 4 | 2017-03-24 03:55:29 UTC | Caleb-G | Thank you! | |
| 46944517 by juuroku | 1 | 2017-03-18 00:52:29 UTC | Carnildo | You've turned I-90 into a tunnel across the entire state of Washington twice now. Whatever you're doing, stop it. |
| 2 | 2017-03-18 00:59:17 UTC | juuroku | I'm trying to properly layer the roadways in the MBRT in Seattle. Like most people, I'm learning OSM through experimentation. | |
| 3 | 2017-03-18 02:14:13 UTC | Carnildo | I'm not familiar with the Vespucci editor, but when you're changing the layer/tunnel information for I-90, make sure you're selecting an individual way making up the freeway, rather than the relation that groups all of the ways together into a single unit. | |
| 4 | 2017-03-18 03:45:31 UTC | juuroku | In Vespucci the individual ways and the relations appear on the same pick list when selecting a way to edit.

| 46517941 by Timothy Whidden | 1 | 2017-03-02 21:08:21 UTC | Carnildo | Thanks for your work improving the map!The usual way to map a school is to place the name of the school on the school grounds, but to not name school buildings unless they have their own, different name (eg. the "So-and-So Memorial Gymnasium"). |

| 45897335 by cetea | 1 | 2017-02-07 22:21:26 UTC | Carnildo | The "name" field should only be used to give the names of things, not to describe them. It's obvious from the tags that a path is a path, so you don't also need to name it "path". |
| 45795918 by Kelm | 1 | 2017-02-04 05:17:40 UTC | Carnildo | That does not look particularly park-like in aerial imagery, and the Pullman parks department is unaware of any park named "Egg Park", or of a park by any name in that location. |

| 45763075 by kwc123 | 1 | 2017-02-03 05:06:43 UTC | Carnildo | For future reference, the correct tag for a parking lot or parking garage is "car parking" (amenity=parking). "Parking space" is for if you're mapping the individual spaces within a parking lot. |
| 45759543 by kissackt | 1 | 2017-02-03 04:44:24 UTC | Carnildo | In general, we don't record the ownership of private residences on the map. |

| 45596543 by sugabob3310 | 1 | 2017-01-28 19:51:02 UTC | Carnildo | The "name" field should only be used for the actual name of something. What sort of thing it is is indicated by tags such as "commercial area". |
| 45584807 by laylow506 | 1 | 2017-01-28 11:03:16 UTC | Carnildo | I've reverted this change. As best I can tell, the "park" is a vacant lot and the footway doesn't exist. Further, the change messed up the data for bus route #160 by adding the vacant lot to it. |
| 45584430 by Max V | 1 | 2017-01-28 10:51:11 UTC | Carnildo | Is there a reason why you think that the Centennial Trail is better classified as a footway than as a cycleway? Sure, it probably sees more foot traffic than bicycle traffic, but it's advertised as a cycle route, marked as a cycle route, and everyone knows it as a cycle route. |
| 45540679 by MikeEspinoza | 1 | 2017-01-27 05:41:58 UTC | Carnildo | If you put the address in the address field rather than the name field, route-finding software can use it when users enter it as their destination. |
| 45536780 by cetea | 1 | 2017-01-27 02:21:38 UTC | Carnildo | Are you sure about the park you added just north of the cemetery? It looks to me like it's just somebody's house. |
| 45530800 by Valiant208 | 1 | 2017-01-27 01:20:55 UTC | Carnildo | The "name" field should only be used for actual names. Attributes such as "this is a sidewalk" are indicated by appropriate tagging. |
| 45496764 by jagather1 | 1 | 2017-01-26 11:27:42 UTC | Carnildo | A "Code Blue Emergency Station" sounds like it should be tagged as an "emergency phone" (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:emergency%3Dphone). Is this correct? |
| 2 | 2017-01-31 18:39:24 UTC | jagather1 | Yes, it does seem like a better fit. I changed them to emergency phones after reading the wiki-link. Thank you. | |
| 45494353 by eridley | 1 | 2017-01-26 11:21:35 UTC | Carnildo | Cheney Community Church is mapped twice here, once as a node with an address of 205 Pine Street, and once as a building with an address of 1307 3rd Street. Which one is correct? |
| 45480736 by Kevinmccormick | 1 | 2017-01-25 22:09:51 UTC | Carnildo | Please only map things that actually exist.I don't know if the watercourse you've modified is better mapped as a "stream" or a "ditch", but I'm confident enough that there isn't a meadow, a pond, a lake, or a Reformed Zoroastrian temple at the intersection of Third and Roosev... |
| 45450596 by Kingsmj | 1 | 2017-01-24 22:10:32 UTC | Carnildo | Is there an actual park here? On the aerial imagery, it looks like it's just a vacant lot. |
| 45226779 by fduvelson | 1 | 2017-01-17 05:06:14 UTC | Carnildo | You appear to have re-named the United States in this changeset. Consequently, I've reverted it. |
| 35564696 by Methow Trails | 1 | 2017-01-10 09:14:17 UTC | Carnildo | You've mapped a long section of Radar Creek as a bridge here. Is this accurate (an extended boardwalk or similar), or an error? |
| 44918585 by PHerison | 1 | 2017-01-05 21:43:40 UTC | Carnildo | Are you sure about "Indian Prairie School"? Aerial imagery shows something that looks more garage-like than school-like, none of the local school districts has an "Indian Prairie School", and I can't find anything about it on the web. |
| 2 | 2017-01-05 22:08:12 UTC | PHerison | This was just a merge of node 356540317 and way 311148180. I've no information about "Indian Prairie School". | |
| 3 | 2017-01-06 07:51:21 UTC | Carnildo | Upon further investigation, that building is Spokane County Fire District 10's station #3. I've updated the map.The node in question was from the GNIS import, a data source almost as problematic as TIGER, but less well-known. Looking at the associated record in the GNIS website, it was added t... | |
| 44249131 by nyuriks | 1 | 2016-12-08 05:54:36 UTC | Carnildo | Some of these tags don't seem to be appropriate. For example, "Hillside" (https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/6071193) and "Walker's Point" (https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/6029898) both have the Wikidata tag "Q6988108", which is "Neighborhoods of Milwau... |
| 2 | 2017-01-04 22:35:06 UTC | nyuriks | Carnildo, thanks, totally forgot about this issue - I have easily found all affected items using relation["wikipedia"~"#"]["wikidata"]["admin_level"];query. That said, these are not incorrect Wikidata IDs, they are simply less then accurate, and should be... | |
| 3 | 2017-01-05 11:16:31 UTC | nyuriks | Ok, done - all Milwaukee neighborhoods (wikidata=Q6988108) have been fixed - i created wd items for them | |
| 4 | 2017-01-05 21:11:40 UTC | Carnildo | Thanks -- that seems like the best solution. | |
| 5 | 2018-07-24 11:25:10 UTC | reddox | nyuriks, shouldn't R-181732 (Belcourt) be a town / village? 'locality' seems inappropriate.https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/181732#map=14/48.8470/-99.7310 | |
| 44737030 by Able05 | 1 | 2016-12-30 19:39:40 UTC | skorasaurus | Hi, welcome to OpenStreetMap. Nice details and edits here on the golf course. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or ask at help.openstreetmap.org Regards,Will (from Cleveland) |
| 2 | 2016-12-30 20:06:08 UTC | Able05 | Thank you. It's sure taking some time to work through the course. I am new to this, so it may very well likely be widely-known, but I find it cumbersome to edit some of these things. For example, when adding a sand bunker, it seems unnecessary to have to add both golf=bunker and natural=sand since t... | |
| 3 | 2016-12-31 20:34:39 UTC | Carnildo | The JOSM editor (https://josm.openstreetmap.de/) lets you set up tag presets to apply as many tags as you want in one action, but it's got its own steep learning curve. | |
| 44769973 by KDyer | 1 | 2016-12-29 23:07:31 UTC | Carnildo | Thanks for adding to the map!A tip for better mapping: if a path meets a road, make sure the two are connected (the connection will show up as a grey dot in the editor). This lets routing software know that it's possible to get from one to the other, and use the path when finding walking direct... |
| 44695262 by AT4TWalker | 1 | 2016-12-27 13:15:22 UTC | upendrakarukonda | Hi AT4TWalker,Welcome to OpenStreetMap. Your contribution is appreciable. It's better not to use proprietary sources for mapping in OpenStreetMap. Regards,Upendra. |
| 2 | 2016-12-29 06:05:06 UTC | Carnildo | Besides, in my experience, Google often gets park boundaries spectacularly wrong. | |
| 44600797 by ncmh91 | 1 | 2016-12-23 19:57:16 UTC | DavidKewley | Hi ncmh91, looks like you removed a runway and associated taxiway, and shrunk the airport grounds accordingly. Could you provide a URL describing this change in the real world? I'm still seeing references on the web to the removed runway, and I'm not (immediately) finding references to its being rem... |
| 2 | 2016-12-24 08:30:22 UTC | Carnildo | Bing, Mapbox, and USGS imagery all have "X"s at the ends of the runway, indicating long-term closure. The FAA master record for the airport (http://www.gcr1.com/5010ReportRouter/default.aspx?airportID=ILN) also notes that runway 4R/22L is closed "until further notice".It's p... | |
| 3 | 2016-12-24 19:27:47 UTC | DavidKewley | OK, cool, I've learned something today. Thanks Carnildo! | |
| 4 | 2016-12-24 23:42:19 UTC | ncmh91 | Thanks Carnildo for helping clear this up! | |
| 44637936 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-12-24 05:49:49 UTC | Carnildo | Are you *sure* this is tertiary? Aerial imagery shows a one-lane gravel road. |
| 44532178 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-12-20 07:18:27 UTC | Carnildo | Whatever you did to the Waikiki Road bridge over the Little Spokane, it broke the Fairwood boundary relation. I've fixed it, but please be more careful in the future. |
| 43024691 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-12-19 05:18:15 UTC | Carnildo | What's your basis for mapping Cliff Drive as a one-way street? It sure looked two-way this afternoon. |
| 44479681 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-12-18 01:28:31 UTC | Carnildo | Spokane County's municipal boundary map (http://www.spokanecounty.org/DocumentCenter/View/116) isn't the most detailed in the world, but it seems to think that the original Spangle city limits were correct -- that yes, the southern boundary does cut diagonally through a field. |
| 44463097 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-12-17 10:30:10 UTC | Carnildo | Err, no.Anyone driving Dike Bypass and expecting a trunk road will be very surprised to find themselves on a narrow two-lane road with assorted driveways coming off it. |
| 44415343 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-12-15 09:48:05 UTC | Carnildo | Um, no.Crown Point may or may not be a state highway; I've got no information on that. But it is not in any way a secondary highway. It is a short stub of paved road providing access to a minor park and a pair of dirt roads. |
| 44408917 by Ron Weeks | 1 | 2016-12-15 09:32:19 UTC | Carnildo | Thanks for updating these roads.If a road is entirely closed to heavy-truck traffic, you can indicate that by adding a tag of "hgv" with a value of "no"; if it's closed except for local deliveries, you'd use a value of "destination".The iD editor doesn't have a ... |
| 44378029 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-12-13 21:48:50 UTC | Carnildo | The lower terminal of the Skyride is a military area? Sorry to put it so bluntly, but what the hell? |
| 2 | 2016-12-13 21:53:11 UTC | Carnildo | Additionally, where are you getting the name "White Park" from? As far as I can tell, it's just a stray piece of city-owned riverbank. | |
| 44364237 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-12-13 07:30:47 UTC | Carnildo | Um, what?Last time I drove past, that sure looked like a statue of Abraham Lincoln. |
| 44328901 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-12-12 02:02:04 UTC | Carnildo | I've reverted this changeset.1) To the best of my knowledge, the Spokane city limits run down the west side of Haven, not the centerline.2) Adding a "landuse=commercial" polygon on top of the Spokane County Fair polygon violates the principle that one OSM object should correspond to ... |
| 44319711 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-12-11 23:02:53 UTC | Carnildo | Are you sure all of this is Spalding Auto Parts? The fencelines and different car-parking patterns look like they could belong to two different junkyards. |
| 44241301 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-12-07 23:05:14 UTC | Carnildo | A mini-roundabout is a type of junction between multiple streets. For a roundabout-type structure at the end of a street, mark it as a "turning loop". |
| 44193358 by Postfallshd | 1 | 2016-12-05 23:59:25 UTC | Carnildo | Please don't abbreviate street names. It's easy enough for a computer to turn a full name into an abbreviated one if it needs to save space, but going the other direction can be difficult or impossible. For example, should "St" be expanded to "Street", or "Saint"? |
| 44166825 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-12-04 23:02:45 UTC | Carnildo | I've partially reverted this changeset. The Bing imagery for Sprague is out of date -- the intersection at the northwest corner of the town has been re-worked into a conventional four-way intersection with a driveway coming out of it. |
| 43314846 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-11-18 14:18:41 UTC | SomeoneElse | Hello,You've added a "landuse=forest" tag to http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/1447414#map=15/47.9626/-120.2074 - is that really correct? The relation is "Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest" i.e. it's a protected area - a "National Forest" in US terms, but that d... |
| 2 | 2016-11-29 19:47:13 UTC | Carnildo | I don't think it does. Like most national forests, Okanogan-Wenatchee is used for a mix of logging, ranching, mining, hunting, and other things. There are dedicated recreation areas and dedicated wilderness areas, and areas that are de-facto one or the other (generally due to inaccessibility), and... | |
| 44020638 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-11-28 23:05:07 UTC | Carnildo | I repeat: is there a reason why you do not consider these roads to be tertiary? |
| 43930461 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-11-24 21:07:01 UTC | Carnildo | Re-removed park. Source: I went there, looked, and saw a collection of parking lots."North Bank Park" isn't the only erroneous park on that map. Mr. Kozlov would be rather upset if you used it as the basis for mapping his house as part of Palisades; similarly, people would be confuse... |
| 2 | 2016-11-24 23:08:43 UTC | Howpper | Ok, I understand. | |
| 43888363 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-11-23 10:29:05 UTC | Carnildo | ..."North Bank Park"? I've never heard of it, and as far as I can tell, neither has the Parks Department. |
| 2 | 2016-11-24 05:30:07 UTC | Carnildo | Drove by it today and found several parking lots, but no park. The only place where I've been able to find a park in this area is in the master plan for redevelopment of Riverfront Park, and that's not scheduled to take place until 2018. I've deleted the park. | |
| 43885634 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-11-23 08:54:23 UTC | Carnildo | Are you sure Crestline between 11th and 15th doesn't exist? Aerial imagery certainly shows something street-like. |
| 43883676 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-11-23 04:18:19 UTC | BharataHS | Hey Howpper,Your efforts on adding data on to OSM is deeply appreciated. Could you please let the community know, the reason behind deleting a lake which is visible in Bing satellite imagery. Thank you. |
| 2 | 2016-11-23 04:33:09 UTC | Carnildo | Not just satellite imagery. I've got a half-dozen photographs of it at various times this year. | |
| 43863777 by Omnific | 1 | 2016-11-22 10:41:29 UTC | Carnildo | At least one of these still existed in October -- at least in the form of a sign on a store. I didn't check to see if it was still open for business, as I was navigating a busy parking lot at the time. |
| 43649209 by Tgd108 | 1 | 2016-11-16 18:52:55 UTC | neuhausr | Did you mistype? Either the name or the tag is wrong |
| 2 | 2016-11-16 22:03:20 UTC | Tgd108 | Sorry. The tag is wrong. Didn't set it as post office intentionally. It is a music store. Couldn't find which tag to put for that. First location for me. Will try to figure out how to repair it. Thanks for the heads up. | |
| 3 | 2016-11-19 20:32:58 UTC | Carnildo | The tag would be either Music Store ("shop=music", for a store that sells CDs, vinyl records, etc.), or Music Instrument Store ("shop=musical_instrument", for a store that sells instruments and related things). I don't know if the Maps.Me editor has presets for these, but the iD... | |
| 43756087 by SusanWi | 1 | 2016-11-18 10:35:29 UTC | user_5359 | Welcome to OSM! You paint a new way over a existing street (https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/53411280). And the name "P-1302 Access Road to Soccer Park (RRE Homeowner Association)“ isn’t a name, this is a description! What is wrong with the highway "Eastridge Drive NE"? |
| 2 | 2016-11-18 21:12:36 UTC | SusanWi | According to the Redmond Ridge East plat, Eastridge Drive ends at the roundabout where it connects to 244th Place NE. The section of road to the south/southeast of the roundabout is an access road on parcel 720322-0620 that belongs to the Redmond Ridge East homeowners association. It is not an ext... | |

Then, click the "scissors" icon ... | |
| 43806413 by Michael Minn | 1 | 2016-11-19 20:05:59 UTC | Carnildo | The "name" field should only be used for the name of the object, and nothing else -- computers don't understand that a suffix of "(Closed)" means that a gas station is closed, and so it will still show up in searches.The customary way to indicate that a business has been clos... |
| 43785121 by Natfoot | 1 | 2016-11-19 03:03:02 UTC | Carnildo | Did you mis-type the tags for the signals here? |
| 2 | 2016-11-19 03:14:36 UTC | Natfoot | apparently autocorrect was not happy. | |
| 43780043 by Anonymity | 1 | 2016-11-18 22:51:17 UTC | Carnildo | When mapping businesses, it's useful to indicate what sort of business it is, to make it easier to find. For example, "Roger's Towing & Recovery", in addition to being a building, is probably also a "car repair shop" (tag "shop", value "car_repair"). |
| 43755847 by MirouStar | 1 | 2016-11-18 08:43:55 UTC | Carnildo | Thanks for adding speed limits -- it's nice to know I'm not the only one who cares about them. |
| 43674302 by BY3to1 | 1 | 2016-11-15 19:51:13 UTC | Carnildo | Is there a reason why you placed two wastebaskets in apparently-random parts of Area 51? |
| 43658405 by Auswanderer | 1 | 2016-11-15 05:15:54 UTC | Carnildo | "shop=cannabis" is the more-common way of tagging marijuana stores (120+ uses versus 12). I've gone ahead and changed it. |
| 43654600 by Carson321 | 1 | 2016-11-15 05:09:36 UTC | Carnildo | You're not allowed to use Google Maps as a source for mapping. The data isn't under an open license, and Google could react in legally unpleasant ways to people copying it. |
| 43653855 by JoshGIS301 | 1 | 2016-11-15 04:42:12 UTC | Carnildo | The more information you can provide about something, the easier it is for people to find it. For example, in addition to marking the building as being a commercial building, you could tag it as a bank, and indicate that it's got an ATM (or not). |
| 43592230 by Erikk Machowek | 1 | 2016-11-13 00:57:32 UTC | Carnildo | Two issues with this edit:1) "Simple changes" isn't a very descriptive comment. If I'm reading the changes correctly, a more accurate comment would be something like "added points of interest".2) Elevations in OSM are measured in meters, not feet. Your change to the sum... |
| 43518053 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-11-09 20:00:51 UTC | Carnildo | Is there a reason why you don't want 13th/Rosamond/West/Westcliff/Deska classified as tertiary? The route has an elevated speed limit, right-of-way over intersecting minor roads, and is classified by the city as an arterial -- all indications that it should be tagged as "tertiary". |
| 43507043 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-11-09 19:19:42 UTC | Carnildo | Where are you getting the name "Grand Junction" and the presence of a stop sign on a railroad from? |
| 43500792 by bpoepping | 1 | 2016-11-09 00:15:08 UTC | Carnildo | Is this a fire station? Fire stations have their own building type, so they can be indicated as such with an appropriate icon or other marking. |
| 43500787 by bubblyjoe | 1 | 2016-11-09 00:11:19 UTC | Carnildo | The "name" field should only be used for names, not descriptions. Most parking lots don't have names. |
| 43500387 by Sticks09 | 1 | 2016-11-08 23:56:56 UTC | Carnildo | Buildings should not be placed inside other buildings -- it makes it hard for map renderers to draw things correctly. The preferred way to map a building containing multiple businesses is to draw the outline as a generic building, then add a "point" feature for each business. |
| 43500300 by Anonymity | 1 | 2016-11-08 23:51:58 UTC | Carnildo | Is the name of this actually "Residential Development"? The "name" field for objects should only be used for actual names, not descriptions. |
| 43479919 by Michael Minn | 1 | 2016-11-08 08:43:33 UTC | Carnildo | Wouldn't it make more sense to draw a "landuse=residential" around the entire apartment complex and name it "Eagle Point Apartments", rather than putting the apartment-complex name on each building individually? |
| 43370521 by MasterMadi | 1 | 2016-11-03 06:35:41 UTC | Carnildo | "I Street" is already on the map as a residential road. What were you trying to do here? |
| 43365197 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-11-02 22:38:20 UTC | Carnildo | The "apartments" tag is for apartment *buildings*, not apartment *complexes*. Applying it to an apartment complex causes the complex to be drawn as a single very large building. |
| 43292091 by bas57 | 1 | 2016-10-30 22:27:04 UTC | Carnildo | Is this actually a road named "private driveway"? If it's an ordinary driveway, the correct way to mark it as such is a road type of "driveway" with an allowed access of "private". The "name" field should only be used for actual names. |
| 43235599 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-28 07:35:20 UTC | Carnildo | Since when has Pinecroft Natural Area Preserve been a military area? |
| 2 | 2016-10-28 21:57:42 UTC | Howpper | I did this because the area is not open to the public, and it was meant to represent a restricted area. | |
| 43234430 by Cody McClung | 1 | 2016-10-28 03:32:33 UTC | Carnildo | The classification of places is based on their size, not on the official name. That said, I agree that Pullman is probably large enough to be classified as a city rather than a town. |
| 43223377 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-27 18:37:16 UTC | Carnildo | Landuse tags should indicate "what it's actually used for", not "what it's zoned for". |
| 43147311 by Carnildo | 1 | 2016-10-26 16:21:18 UTC | Howpper | I see what you mean, the part north of I-90 was once part of the park, but no longer officially is, but according to "https://maps.spokanecity.org/", the part north of Liberty Park Place is part of the park. Is this incorrect? |
| 2 | 2016-10-26 19:36:58 UTC | Carnildo | Based on the Liberty Park map at https://my.spokanecity.org/parks/finder/, it's not part of the park.I haven't been to the park recently, but aerial imagery shows the block north of Liberty Park Place as a brown, weed-filled lot, where the area south of the road is well-watered, well-maintained ... | |

| 43015669 by Darrell | 1 | 2016-10-20 11:25:55 UTC | Paul Johnson | Maybe this should be undeleted, and instead retagged as a brownfield site. Deleting the property also removes the address, which is still valid for this site. |
| 2 | 2016-10-21 05:15:15 UTC | Paul Johnson | If there's no objection, I will be reverting this edit to restore the deleted address. | |

It's common for them to be rebuilt on the same foundation with the same roof outline, and this preserves the infor... | |
| 4 | 2016-10-22 13:38:55 UTC | Paul Johnson | That's probably a good idea on this building, since it is *Very* much destroyed, and damaged most of the buildings within the vicinity (I've heard reports of damage as far up as Irving in one direction and Everett in the other).

| 43046955 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-21 03:14:19 UTC | Carnildo | I don't think it's accurate to describe this section of MLK Way as "open for traffic": as of half an hour ago, the "road closed" construction barriers were still up at the intersection with Sherman. |
| 42949554 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-17 06:48:44 UTC | Carnildo | "boundary=national_park" is a general-purpose "large protected area" tag. The "protected_area" tagging system gives more precision, but until more map renderers understand it, double-tagging national forests as national parks is fairly standard practice."bound... |
| 42403456 by emka57 | 1 | 2016-10-14 20:47:47 UTC | Carnildo | The correct tagging for a geyser is "natural=geyser", not "natural=volcano". |
| 42191665 by schloss | 1 | 2016-10-10 17:50:22 UTC | Johnny Mapperseed | Have you confirmed their location with an on the ground survey? I hate to be a bummer, but the bing sat imagery is of downtown before significant renovations. Basically none of it is good anymore, unless you've recently been on the ground and know what remains and what has changed.Anyway thanks ... |
| 2 | 2016-10-11 17:40:02 UTC | schloss | I have confirmed the location of these trees both by visiting Kent recently, and by referencing Google's aerial imagery when making the change, which Is far more up to date than Bing's. | |
| 3 | 2016-10-13 09:13:14 UTC | Carnildo | Don't do that -- Google isn't on the list of acceptable sources. If you need more recent imagery, Mapbox Satellite and USGS Large Scale Imagery both tend to be newer than Bing, and are freely usable (if lower resolution). | |
| 42846857 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-13 05:58:05 UTC | Carnildo | By what stretch of the imagination does Spokane have a population of nearly three-quarters of a million people? |
| 2 | 2016-10-13 16:23:42 UTC | Howpper | I was counting the Spokane-Coeur d'Alene Combined Statistical Area. Now I see that it should have the population of the city proper. | |
| 42820374 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-12 06:45:02 UTC | Carnildo | Please don't attach things to roads that aren't actually part of the road, like you did with Greenacres Elementary in this edit. It makes it a pain to edit those roads to to add things like speed-limit changes. |
| 42746530 by Carnildo | 1 | 2016-10-10 00:33:17 UTC | Natfoot | Carnildo, I drove through there as well today. Any idea why there is no railway on that bridge? railway=rail ? |
| 2 | 2016-10-10 02:11:29 UTC | Carnildo | Probably an editing mix-up. | |
| 42666948 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-09 04:42:32 UTC | Carnildo | Where did you get the idea that there was a traffic signal at the intersection of Spokane Falls and Sherman? It was a four-way stop when I drove through this afternoon. |
| 42746126 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-09 04:28:12 UTC | Carnildo | I don't know what this building is supposed to represent, but there's no building there. I've deleted it. |
| 42743060 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-09 01:45:02 UTC | Carnildo | Mount Spokane Park Drive is not primary. It is not really secondary, it is merely customary to describe state highways as such. Tertiary would be reasonable, as would "unclassified".It's a winding rural road that doesn't go much of anywhere. It is certainly not "a road that lin... |
| 2 | 2016-10-09 01:51:55 UTC | Carnildo | This particular stretch of road is a badly-potholed two-lane road with no markings, that connects only to a ski-area parking lot (closed in the summer) and a small group of summer homes. | |
| 42727583 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-09 00:49:12 UTC | Carnildo | I drove past both ends of this bridge today, and saw no signs of construction. Further, according to the most recent newspaper articles I've seen, it's still in the "where can we get ten million dollars?" stage of construction.According to OSM standards, that means it should be mapped... |
| 42727121 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-08 19:05:37 UTC | Carnildo | The "link" road classification is only for "links": short stretches of connecting road. See the wiki articles: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Highway_link |
| 42726134 by kartino rempas | 1 | 2016-10-08 05:02:24 UTC | Carnildo | I don't know what you were trying to do here, but stretching a building across half the world clearly isn't right. I've reverted it. |
| 42673982 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-06 05:39:31 UTC | Carnildo | Is there really a traffic signal there, or did you mis-mark a railroad crossing? |
| 42670359 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-06 01:01:17 UTC | Carnildo | Columbus Street is one-way northbound. There is no southbound entrance into the roundabout. |
| 42668080 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-10-05 21:41:51 UTC | Carnildo | Planned routes should be "highway=proposed", "proposed=". The "construction" tag should only be used when actual building is taking place, not when the current status is "being heavily debated". |
| 42437517 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-09-29 01:35:32 UTC | Carnildo | This edit broke the railroad bridge over Cannon Street, making it run east-west and connecting it to 5th Avenue. I've fixed it, but please try to be more careful in the future. |
| 42483711 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-09-28 02:49:42 UTC | Carnildo | Where in the world did you get the idea that Spokane has over a half-million people? |
| 42434791 by SeanTrek | 1 | 2016-09-26 17:41:43 UTC | Carnildo | I've converted "Gate" into a gate, and deleted "Bike" and "Sean", based on available imagery. The bench may be redundant, or there may be two benches in the area, and Mapbox imagery shows something that might be a rest area near the "rest area" POI. |
| 42336437 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-09-22 03:49:28 UTC | Carnildo | Why did you delete the lake here? It was very much in existence as of May 7, 2016. |
| 42273368 by SathyaPendyala | 1 | 2016-09-19 16:55:43 UTC | Carnildo | Where did you get your information about the pond you added near Warden? The aerial imagery looks to me like it's farmland, not water. |
| 2 | 2016-09-19 17:03:45 UTC | SathyaPendyala | Are you referring to the change set 42273368? It's a baseball field. | |
| 3 | 2016-09-19 19:09:25 UTC | Carnildo | I'm referring to way 443209289: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/443209289 | |
| 4 | 2016-09-19 20:41:39 UTC | SathyaPendyala | Yes. You're absolutely correct. It's just farmland. It's my mistake. Thanks for pointing that. | |
| 42103555 by Cellsworth | 1 | 2016-09-17 04:35:08 UTC | Carnildo | According to my photos and notes from last week, you're right. |
| 42070241 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-09-14 03:16:30 UTC | Carnildo | This section of Sprague is very definitely not a secondary road. It's a narrow residential street that qualifies as "tertiary" only because traffic on it has the right-of-way over that on any of the intersecting streets. |
| 42070535 by Howpper | 1 | 2016-09-13 17:47:33 UTC | Carnildo | Where are you getting these "Clark" addresses from? As far as I can tell from searching on the Internet, the Keller Ferry campground and other things in the area have "Wilber" addresses. |
| 41855687 by PockletSandThroatKick | 1 | 2016-09-01 21:34:08 UTC | Carnildo | When recording the names of streets, the usual practice is to fully expand abbreviations. It's easy for an end-user to condense "avenue" to "ave" if they need it, but rather harder to tell if "St" should be "street" or "saint".See http://wiki.op... |
| 41837315 by reecee | 1 | 2016-09-01 04:18:52 UTC | Carnildo | Thanks for adding this -- I don't know how I missed it when I was mapping the area earlier this year. My mapping notes show both ends of it, but somehow, I never followed up on mapping the actual trail.Is "bridle path" the actual name for it? When I've been mapping things in Riversid... |
| 2 | 2016-09-01 13:06:07 UTC | reecee | Glad to be able to help. Good point. I don't know that there is an actual name for the trail, just that it is within the horse / hiker only boundaries. I think your idea is best. I'll try to remove the name and just leave the trail type. | |
| 41837363 by reecee | 1 | 2016-09-01 04:08:32 UTC | Carnildo | What's your source for the names here? "Equestrian Lane" is what's on the street signs for the road intersecting Trails/Government Way while "Aubrey L. White" is on the big, fancy, non-official sign. The road leading to the equestrian area doesn't have any name that I've been a... |
| 41818523 by jhockett10119 | 1 | 2016-08-31 18:06:22 UTC | Carnildo | I don't think "Servpro of Northwest Spokane" is part of the roadway of Fir Avenue. Could you move it to the building the business is in and mark it with the appropriate business type?The reason you're not seeing the list of business types in the editor is because you've literally att... |
| 41569837 by GwennDragon | 1 | 2016-08-21 09:15:54 UTC | Carnildo | I *really* don't like the idea of calling Riverside State Park a "national park": it's an administrative conglomerate of all sorts of things, ranging from the highly-protected Little Spokane area, to Parks Department land, to DNR campgrounds, to land owned by Avista that was logged earlier... |
| 2 | 2016-08-21 21:01:58 UTC | GwennDragon | I'm fairly confident that this tag is correct, and I'm willing to stand by it. Allow me to explain my reasoning. Like leisure=nature_reserve, boundary=national_park is used more broadly than the normal English interpretation of the phrase would suggest. It is generally used for any government-declar... | |
| 3 | 2016-08-27 05:56:22 UTC | Carnildo | I think someone should invent a time machine so I can go back in time and swat whoever thought "national_park" was a good tag name for "large, generally wilderness-style recreation area". | |
| 41480465 by naimon | 1 | 2016-08-16 04:05:07 UTC | Carnildo | Is this a ski lift, or a trail following a lift? The usual tagging for lifts is "aerialway=chair_lift" (or other "aerialway=" tags for other types of lift; see http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Piste_Maps#Ski_lifts) |
| 2 | 2016-08-16 17:10:14 UTC | naimon | It's a trail following an old ski lift. | |
| 41461656 by Natfoot | 1 | 2016-08-16 03:39:48 UTC | Carnildo | I'm not comfortable with armchair-mapping the trails in Mount Spokane State Park.1) There's been some re-alignment and closure of trails in the park in the past decade. Some Strava tracks correspond to routes that are now closed.2) Some of the trails in the park are former logging roads tha... |
| 41459988 by Natfoot | 1 | 2016-08-15 06:24:15 UTC | Carnildo | Did something go wrong with this edit? You've got a couple of nodes tagged as "railway=signalGEIGER JCT". |
| 2 | 2016-08-15 06:39:33 UTC | Natfoot | Yes it did, Thank You | |
| 41305745 by MappingJunkie | 1 | 2016-08-08 03:09:31 UTC | Carnildo | Are you sure you've got "Boat Ramp" tagged properly? The name and position imply it's a "leisure=slipway", but you've marked it as an "amenity=parking". |
| 41051155 by GwennDragon | 1 | 2016-07-27 06:47:53 UTC | Carnildo | Are you sure "nature reserve" is the correct classification? When I was mapping the trails, I had to dodge cattle herds a few times -- not something I'd expect to do on a nature reserve. |
| 2 | 2016-08-06 03:42:07 UTC | GwennDragon | The OSM tag leisure=nature_reserve is used a bit more broadly than the usual meaning of the term would suggest. Still, I agree that it is a bit of a stretch. Before my edit, it was labeled with boundary=protected_area & protect_class=27 (Generic public land), which did not render on the map. I o... | |
| 3 | 2016-08-06 06:45:39 UTC | Carnildo | I was hoping you'd know of a better tagging. This sort of situation is exactly the sort of thing "protect_class" is supposed to be for; too bad getting it to render has been an unresolved issue for years. | |
| 41202315 by GwennDragon | 1 | 2016-08-03 04:52:07 UTC | Carnildo | There are some major problems with this edit:1) Indian Canyon Park does not exist except on paper. On the ground, every entrance sign, boundary marker, and trailhead map calls it part of Palisades Park.2) The boundaries you have for "Indian Canyon Park" don't match either the on-t... |
| 2 | 2016-08-06 02:59:56 UTC | GwennDragon | First the lesser matter: I reclassified the trail that connects from Rimrock Drive to Trail 120 (which I originally added to the map a few years ago), for two primary reasons. First, it is not one of the parks official trails, and is thus not marked, does not show up on the official maps, and is not... | |
| 3 | 2016-08-06 03:08:35 UTC | GwennDragon | As for the rest of my edit, I am honestly unsure of what would be the best way to mark the park boundaries. From one perspective, the separate units have separate ownership and should be marked as separate entities, even if they are managed as a unit "Palisades Park" is not a true, singula... | |
| 4 | 2016-08-06 03:19:21 UTC | GwennDragon | For the most part, I would be supportive of reverting my edit, except for two changes. First, the area approximately bounded by the railroad, Greenwood, and Trail 101 is private property, despite what the Palisades map says. I wasn't aware of this until recently when I ran into a man and his family ... | |
| 5 | 2016-08-06 03:22:43 UTC | GwennDragon | Thanks for bringing these things to my attention! It's good to know that I'm not alone in my efforts to map the area. I'm on a self-imposed break from mapping for a while, so you can make changes if you like, or I'll come back and fix everything up in a week. | |
| 6 | 2016-08-06 06:43:29 UTC | Carnildo | My personal choice would be to combine the Indian Canyon and Palisades sections under the name "Palisades Park" (since that's what's on all the signs), while leaving Rimrock Conservation Area.Most of the Greenwood/101/Railroad area is legally part of Greenwood Cemetery, but is de-facto... | |
| 41201727 by GwennDragon | 1 | 2016-08-03 00:23:53 UTC | Carnildo | Are the trails you've added here based on actual GPS traces or on-the-ground observations? What you've drawn looks like the trails that *should* exist according to the county's maps, but when I visited earlier this year, I was unable to locate the trail leading from the parking area, and I didn't h... |
| 2 | 2016-08-06 02:31:43 UTC | GwennDragon | My edits are based on the county map. I have not actually been to this park in person yet, though I've been across the river many times. If you want to remove any of the trails I marked which you think are inaccurate, that's okay with me. | |
| 3 | 2016-08-06 05:33:02 UTC | Carnildo | I plan to head out there this weekend, and I'll be updating the map based on what I find. | |
| 41201388 by GwennDragon | 1 | 2016-08-03 07:27:28 UTC | Carnildo | Where are you getting the boundaries of Sontag Park from? The boundaries on the ground are a bit fuzzy in the area, but as far as I can tell, most of what you've got as Sontag is actually part of Riverside State Park.In particular, the parking area at 47.78397 N, 117.54904 W is definitely part ... |
| 2 | 2016-08-06 02:50:58 UTC | GwennDragon | I've been to Sontag Park, but it was long enough ago that my memory of it is hazy. I based my edit on the map from Spokane County Parks & Recreation (https://www.spokanecounty.org/DocumentCenter/View/4069). Upon checking Riverside's own map and the state BLM data, I believe that you are most lik... | |
| 3 | 2016-08-06 05:27:08 UTC | Carnildo | Sontag Park's a bit tricky: ownership of the land it's on is split between Nine Mile Falls School District and the State Parks Department.My decision on where to split between "Nine Mile Elementary", "Sontag Park", and "Riverside State Park" was somewhat arbitrary: ... | |
| 41196084 by MappingJunkie | 1 | 2016-08-03 07:42:23 UTC | Carnildo | Page Airport appears to be gone: the older Bing and Mapbox imagery shows whiteXs at the ends of the runway indicating closure, while large parts of the runway appear overgrown in the latest Mapbox images. |
| 41197664 by MappingJunkie | 1 | 2016-08-03 07:37:50 UTC | Carnildo | Are you sure about the in-use status of this runway? The white Xs painted at the ends of the runway in the latest imagery indicate long-term closure, in which case it should probably be tagged as "disused:aeroway=runway" |
| 41119963 by MappingJunkie | 1 | 2016-07-30 08:47:55 UTC | Carnildo | Did you forget to add tags to this? |
| 2 | 2016-07-30 19:35:22 UTC | MappingJunkie | Thanks for noticing. This is a work in progress that requires loading lots of GeoTiffs. Since the boundary is not complete, I will leave it un-tagged until it is ready for publication. | |
| 40922008 by ridixcr | 1 | 2016-07-21 20:26:19 UTC | Carnildo | Please pay attention when dealing with this sort of mis-tagged way. Yes, it was mis-tagged as a quarry. But it is also mis-tagged as a mineshaft, a ditch, a peak, and an incorrectly-named road. |
| 2 | 2016-07-22 20:39:57 UTC | ridixcr | As I commented in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/40909243, I removed only the landuse=quarry because I fixing broken polygons. And in the same way, I've already reverted my edit here https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/40922008. Thanks for your feedback again. | |
| 40909243 by ridixcr | 1 | 2016-07-21 03:13:56 UTC | Carnildo | When you come across an issue like this in the Inland Northwest area of the United States, there's usually more than one problem with the data. In this case, for example, way #13922679 was simultaneously tagged as a mine, a stream, and two different roads. |
| 2 | 2016-07-22 20:39:02 UTC | ridixcr | Hey there!The tag landuse=quarry is recommended just for points or areas, and as you can see in the changeset comment I was working on broken polygons so that was the reason for removing just the mentioned tag. However if you know better this area, you can please clean up all the incorrect tags in... | |
| 40697934 by vincent_y79 | 1 | 2016-07-12 20:50:04 UTC | vincent_y79 | Will have to delete this. Airport has been decomissioned in the 70's but still shows up in the charts. |
| 2 | 2016-07-13 04:37:47 UTC | Carnildo | If the runway's still there but no longer in use, tagging it using one of the lifecycle prefixes such as "disused" or "abandoned" (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Lifecycle_prefix) may be a better option. | |
| 3 | 2016-07-13 14:07:49 UTC | vincent_y79 | Thank you. Didn't really want to delete because it still shows up in the charts but the abandoned tag was perfect. | |
| 40632240 by Yoshinion | 1 | 2016-07-11 09:09:00 UTC | Carnildo | Aerial imagery here shows something that looks an awful lot like a runway. Is there something I'm missing that says "Regan Ranch Airport" doesn't exist? |
| 40531326 by cpq1 | 1 | 2016-07-07 05:02:40 UTC | Carnildo | Why have you tagged the bank of the Spokane River as being a river in its own right? |
| 34540151 by mattmaxon | 1 | 2016-06-26 06:46:33 UTC | user_5359 | Hello! Are the streets have been built? Can we move the tag Name to the tag name? |
| 2 | 2016-07-02 15:10:39 UTC | mattmaxon | No the roads have never been built. They are labeled as proposed because they are taken from planning documents from lacity planning department. Hopefully they will never be built | |
| 3 | 2016-07-04 02:23:39 UTC | Carnildo | The correct way to mark proposed roads is with the "proposed=residential" tag (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:proposed). There doesn't appear to be an easy way to do this with the iD editor, though.Marking them as actual roads will lead to navigation software trying to route ... | |
| 40374252 by Carnildo | 1 | 2016-07-02 19:12:28 UTC | EzekielT | Tigrinya is spoken more often than English in Eritrea, so this probably should be reverted. |
| 2 | 2016-07-02 23:42:19 UTC | SomeoneElse | @EzekielT before you made your original change did you consult with anyone from the OSM community in Eritrea (either living there or, given the politics, mapping there and living remotely)? | |
| 3 | 2016-07-04 01:35:36 UTC | Carnildo | I don't care what language is used for the contents of the "name" field, so long as 1) it's just a single language, 2) it's just a single name, and 3) the name reflects one of the things it's called. | |

| 2 | 2016-06-14 16:23:49 UTC | pete404 | In mapbox it appears to have a strip of green vegetation, so I shrunk the runway and tagged it as disused. | |

| 39411879 by dagwood70 | 1 | 2016-05-18 22:13:28 UTC | Carnildo | Are the speed limits on Five Mile the result of an on-the-ground check? My experience is that roads out in the county are typically either 25 MPH or 35 MPH (or faster); 30 MPH is rare. |
| 2 | 2016-05-18 22:50:51 UTC | dagwood70 | I've lived in a neighborhood off of this road for 1.5 yr, it has been these speed limits as long as I've been here. This was once rural farm area but much of it is now developed. | |
