The information on the types is scarce, but this page (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Isle_of_Man_Post_Office_gold_postbox_for_Peter_Kennaugh) and similar ones mention such postboxes as type_d. Ple... |
2 | 2025-01-21 01:46 | Yorvik Prestigitator | thank you, yes you are right, it is a type D. After some investigation the way to tell type Ds from type Es (if you don't have measurements) is the type D has "Post Office" on one line under the cypher and type E has "Post" and "Office" on two lines under the cyp... | |

2 | 2024-05-28 19:58 | Yorvik Prestigitator | Which bit? The "YOR" seems to be a common abbreviation for York by the Electricity Board at some point - there are ~ 16 other substations in York with the (YOR) suffix | |
3 | 2024-05-28 20:30 | SomeoneElse ♦13,390 | Is there a sign anywhere? Maybe there's something visible from the path?https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/731794606 is another one that's "oddly named", but I haven't had a chance to check that yet. | |
4 | 2024-05-28 21:03 | Yorvik Prestigitator | The substation name will be on a sign on the door/gate (from memory) giving the substation name, the name of the electricity board and a phone number to call in case of emergency.I don't think the Haxby one will be called Calf Close as it is not actually on Calf Close (maybe it was named afte... | |
5 | 2024-05-28 21:36 | SomeoneElse ♦13,390 | I can certainly remember Leak and Thorp and the Viking Hotel (and of course there's also https://check-for-flooding.service.gov.uk/station/8208 ) - and I can still remember the smell of the old Federation Brewery! | |
83484992 by Yorvik Prestigitator @ 2020-04-13 15:19 | 1 | 2024-02-07 14:28 | RaccoonFederation ♦96 | FYI I'm going to delete node 7398758438 because it's not visible on mapillary imagery, which is pretty good at that junction with multiple views. |
2 | 2024-02-07 14:36 | Yorvik Prestigitator | Fair enough, if it is not there any more. I wonder if it has been moved somewhere else - maybe nearer the centre of the village. | |

2 | 2023-12-25 18:55 | Yorvik Prestigitator | oh I didn't spot that on the map, no the defibrillator is by the cafe entrance not by the fire escapeI will fix it | |
3 | 2023-12-25 18:58 | Yorvik Prestigitator | Maybe someone mistook one of the safety lights on the fire escape for a defibrillator box? | |

I hope you don't mind but can I revert this postbox back to a post_box:type lamp box as I'd say it's definitely a lamp box mounted in a wall similar to image fourth row down second from right (https://lbsg.org/photographs/lamp-boxes/)? I remember mulling over the post_box:m... |
2 | 2023-03-26 23:24 | Yorvik Prestigitator | I would call it a wall box as it is clearly mounted flush into the wall - I don't know why the LBSG call it a lamp box, maybe they have inside knowledge why Royal Mail would mount 1000s of boxes designed to be mounted onto a pole into walls.Whether it is pillar next to a wall or a wall extens... | |
3 | 2023-03-27 08:54 | AntV ♦6 | I guess it's down to interpretation. From an LBSG post of view it's lamp box design, squatter than a wall box and with slightly curved corners on front face. There are lots of mostly rural lamp boxes that have been embedded into walls and wall mounted lamp boxes are mentioned in the guidan... | |

2 | 2021-10-11 16:49 | Yorvik Prestigitator | Thanks, wasn't sure it was right, but the ID editor was very keen to suggest it | |
3 | 2021-10-12 09:06 | DaveF ♦1,564 | iD's suggestions often do sound like a command. I think it should always be be questioned whether the recommendation is appropriate.Some are just plain wrong.I've queried the validity of another validation check on iD's github page. | |

2 | 2021-05-16 21:39 | Yorvik Prestigitator | Hi, Yes, the new InLink BT public phones are an electronic advertising hoarding with a phone handset giving free UK phone calls, free wifi and usb sockets to charge your phone.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LinkUK#Services | |
3 | 2021-05-17 13:24 | mueschel ♦6,572 | Thanks, I suggest to change this to 'socket:device:USB-A' - this is used 100 times already, compared to 'usb' which is used only here. | |

3 | 2021-04-28 23:11 | GinaroZ ♦1,280 | I meant specifically the =road tag value, as that means it's not open! I've set it to unclassified like the surrounding roads. | |

89896647 by dsp @ 2020-08-25 07:21 | 1 | 2020-08-27 20:29 | Yorvik Prestigitator | Hi, openstreetmap doesn't allow steps to be mapped as an area. So what you have mapped are steps going around the perimeter of where the steps are.This will be of no use to map users or routing software using the maphttps://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway=steps?uselang=en |
2 | 2020-08-27 20:30 | Yorvik Prestigitator | You have also removed the incline so map users can no longer tell whether the steps will be going up or down | |
3 | 2020-08-27 20:40 | dsp ♦4 | I struggled with this to work out the best option to show these. What would you suggest is the best way to represent the two sets of wide steps? Best wishes. | |

2 | 2020-08-03 22:31 | di4tu2 ♦7 | HelloSorry about that, it was not intentional. I must have accidentally removed it while resolving an editor warning. Leave it with me, I'll get the node reinstated. | |

3 | 2019-09-09 12:52 | Yorvik Prestigitator | no problem, I will put a fixme on the Langlands one as it would be unusual to have two defibrillators so close, then if someone else is surveying before the next time I am out there they can check.thanks | |

5 | 2018-05-29 18:33 | Yorvik Prestigitator | I thought British Railways/British Rail classified them all as stations to hide how many it was making un-manned in the 60s/70s | |

By that rule Telford is a halt :) | |

3 | 2017-03-06 10:59 | lakedistrict ♦308 | Yes, despite the signs the post office counter has gone. Thanks for removing the tag. | |

2 | 2016-10-15 20:35 | skgrange ♦9 | Hello. I agree. I made the change because the MapBox services were rendering the Ings as water. So it is a work-around. I can revert the change if desired. | |
3 | 2016-10-15 22:04 | SomeoneElse ♦13,390 | Sounds like a bug with Mapbox's rendering to me (although over the next 6 months or so it'll be likely as wrong as right!). | |

It's certainly not obvious from the road that it's this big - the previous size of the school area was based on what things look like from the road. |
2 | 2016-06-23 18:09 | SomeoneElse ♦13,390 | I removed the made-up names "SPSP" on e.g. http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/424321513 as well. that was added by the previous (new) contributor; which I didn't fix straight away because I had let them know about it via a changeset discussion. | |
3 | 2016-06-26 05:29 | Yorvik Prestigitator | There is/was a school sign on the roadside in the woods alongside the field, so I assumed the field belonged to the school. It could be they are just advertising the school on a field adjacent, I am happy to defer to local knowledge. | |

2 | 2015-08-21 22:25 | Locator ♦9 | In my mind from the Wiki I had it to tag the building outline and the node for the entrance. Tagging for the renderer is a cardinal sin, but maybe I got it wrong. | |

For rendering purposes, it should be sh... |
2 | 2015-07-21 10:36 | Yorvik Prestigitator | I have to agree with will_p, have you read the wiki that says the same as will_p is saying wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:bar , for example should I edit all the bars that have toilets from toilets=yes to amenity=toilets? | |
3 | 2015-07-21 11:44 | SomeoneElse ♦13,390 | For the avoidance of doubt, I can categorically state that http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/331497978 is NOT an amenity=bar. It's a hotel bar (serves a nice pint, but not really a pub because it's part of the hotel, though it does welcome walkers who aren't covered in mud) | |

6 | 2015-07-22 13:11 | Dr Kludge ♦69 | Nice guys comments guys. It shows bunch of religion. How about fixing the wiki then. If I go to the bar page it redirects to amenity=bar. Anyone could have fallen into this problem.Tag:amenity=bar(Redirected from Bar) | |

31533862 by NewBrownRice @ 2015-05-28 15:43 | 1 | 2015-05-29 03:10 | Yorvik Prestigitator | are these public parking lots or residents only parking? |
2 | 2015-05-29 09:50 | NewBrownRice ♦5 | They are permit only parking - however there is no restriction (gates/barriers) to the site. Should I have used access=private in this case?Thanks, NBR. | |
3 | 2015-05-29 14:29 | Yorvik Prestigitator | Yes, personally I would recommend using access=private in this case so they are not confused with public parking (it will also render with a faded "P" on some maps). | |

2 | 2015-05-14 16:55 | SomeoneElse ♦13,390 | It did look like an official sign from Yorkshire Housing. It wouldn't surprise me (given the history of the area - until surprisingly recently post-war prefabs) if it was a private road. | |
3 | 2015-05-14 17:05 | Yorvik Prestigitator | Sorry, worded that badly, I was disputing Yorkshire Housing's right to create such a regulation, than whether it was genuinely their sign. But if you think it might be a private road then I guess they are allowed to be so anti-cyclist. | |
4 | 2015-05-15 08:17 | SomeoneElse ♦13,390 | ... and I suspect it'll also apply to the northern bit too (though I didn't get chance to look for a sign there). | |
30535499 by NewBrownRice @ 2015-04-27 11:20 | 1 | 2015-05-07 10:58 | Yorvik Prestigitator | Is there any evidence on the ground for the footpaths from Murton? They appear to go through cultivated fields, hedgerow and becks as well as crossing very busy dual carriageway with no provision for pedestrians |
2 | 2015-05-07 11:08 | NewBrownRice ♦5 | Hi Yorvik Prestigitator, I added these footpaths and bridleways as exactly shown on the Local Authority's (City of York) Definitive map. You can view the map here: http://localview.york.gov.uk/Sites/lv/, then select Map Information on the left side, and scroll down the large list to find Public... | |
3 | 2015-05-07 11:24 | NewBrownRice ♦5 | I've updated the Southern-most crossing with the By-Pass, as the footpath actually terminates on the Definitive Map before and after the By-Pass. But I can confirm that the Northern-most crossing is still a public footpath. As you can see here: http://binged.it/1GQRrtw The path is clearly shown... | |
4 | 2015-05-07 11:33 | Yorvik Prestigitator | There is no indication on the York council map of what date the right of way is valid for, it may have been superseded by the dualling of the A64, there is no obvious footpath on the Bing imagery on the west of the A64. Ordnance Survey maps come with the proviso that they do not guarantee the paths ... | |
5 | 2015-05-07 11:49 | NewBrownRice ♦5 | It is true that the footpath to the West is unclear. It would probably be sensible to mark the path as impassable over the By-Pass as I don't believe there is a crossing point here. Even though the York Localview website uses Ordnance Survey maps, the overlays of footpaths and bridleways are no... | |
6 | 2015-05-07 11:57 | NewBrownRice ♦5 | Just to confirm, looking at this Birds-eye view on Bing: http://binged.it/1RfTDTM, it is possible to see the footpath does cross the A64. The clearest way of distinguishing this is the two-tiered central reservation barriers in the road, which I guess are particularly suited for pedestrians to cross... | |

9 | 2015-05-07 16:45 | SomeoneElse ♦13,390 | It doesn't matter if "the Local Authority's definite map is a public document and the data contained within it is public data" - if it's derived from non-licence-compatible data it can't be used in OSM.

14 | 2015-05-07 18:59 | NewBrownRice ♦5 | I understand your point, but the use of the Definitive Map is different.

2 | 2015-04-12 02:26 | Yorvik Prestigitator | I didn't give it that name - it was already labelled such before I edited it. The road adjoining the footpath has a street sign Whip-ma-whop-ma-gate, but 1A Whip-ma-whop-ma-gate (where the estate agent is) is situated down this footpath. | |
3 | 2015-04-12 13:44 | PmaiIkeey ♦5 | As I have my suspicions, is this something you can investigate ? I'm aware 1½ is down there but this is akin to a private drive off a named road. I know it's not private but I have my doubts about it having that name. It may even have some other funky name! | |

2 | 2015-03-28 14:14 | rex_the_first ♦1 | Yes, that is a good point. As the building is shared with Hackspace it probably shouldn't all get called Pedallers' Arms.I've removed the double naming https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/29805893Thanks | |
