| 50951620 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-08-09 10:15:17 UTC | juhanjuku | Why you connected waterway and highway with node? Node: Valka (LV) - Valga (EST) (5022787218) |
| 2 | 2017-08-09 10:49:40 UTC | Jay May | Sorry, I do not understand your question... Where exactly? | |
| 3 | 2017-08-09 10:53:42 UTC | juhanjuku | Select below in your changeset nodeNode: Valka (LV) - Valga (EST) (5022787218)and you see the place | |
| 4 | 2017-08-09 10:57:53 UTC | Jay May | I am unable to see the exact place. Anyway, I don't remember merging a waterway and a waterway with a node. So it is most probably a mistake from myself. Could you please correct it? | |
| 5 | 2017-08-09 11:04:41 UTC | juhanjuku | Its border point where highways Semināra iela & Sepa intersect with stream Varžupīte.You can see error in Osmose.I can correct it. | |
| 6 | 2017-08-09 11:08:52 UTC | Jay May | Aaa. now I see it. Actually my aim was to merge the border point on the bridge so it is in phase both with the national LV/EST border, as well as with the river (Varžupite). However, that border point must be on the bridge.I was also looking for the Estonian name of that river, but haven't found ... | |
| 50582202 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-07-31 15:45:14 UTC | mueschel | Hi,could you explain all the name tags of this node?http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/4858193412I doubt it has this name with '3.5 t' |
| 2 | 2017-08-01 07:13:29 UTC | Jay May | Hi :)Sure! This is for people using OSM-based GPS apps (ex.: maps.me) to know which lane is for regular cars (≤3.5t meaning “for vehicles with a weight up to 3,5 tons), and which one is for trucks (TIR, abbreviation of Transport International Routier, is understood by every truck driver u... | |
| 3 | 2017-08-01 14:30:29 UTC | mueschel | We do have a clear policy that the name tag contains just the actual name and does not contain any description. For this you can use tags like maxweight or hgv. If tools like maps.me do not support this, request them to adapt to common OSM tagging rules. | |
| 4 | 2017-08-01 17:40:00 UTC | Jay May | One question: what will it change for OSM if those border control tagged names are not visible to regular OSM users anyway? | |
| 5 | 2017-08-01 18:15:40 UTC | mueschel | Who is a "regular osm user"? There are hundreds of different maps and tools around. All of them render different things. And for example searching for names gets increasingly difficult if we add arbitrary information to the name tag. | |
| 6 | 2017-08-01 18:52:38 UTC | Jay May | I'm afraid this is not arbitrary info. It is useful info, otherwise I wouldn't waste my time to look for it and reflect it on OSM. Rules are there as an indication, and may sometimes be wrong Some of them must be changed. You state the policy on names it clear. I'm afraid it isn't. There are a cou... | |
| 50159972 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-07-10 07:44:59 UTC | Tomas Straupis | Do NOT delete name:lt tags. |
| 2 | 2017-07-11 09:11:34 UTC | Jay May | Do NOT write in big letters (this shows aggressiveness) and do NOT delete my changes on Kareivių g. Thank you. | |
| 3 | 2017-07-11 12:11:45 UTC | Tomas Straupis | Please read the manual and stop adding crap data to the map and I will not delete it because I have NEVER deleted any good data. | |
| 4 | 2017-07-11 16:07:08 UTC | Jay May | You have deleted good data already a couple of times (useful border crossing info, names, and so on), and you thought nobody would discover it. Not only from me, but other users. Stop assuming you know everything better than everyone. Kareivių g. being widened, and such data is useful both for OSM ... | |
| 5 | 2017-07-11 16:21:22 UTC | Tomas Straupis | I did try showing you your errors, but you bluntly ignored my guidance and continued random mapping. So I have no other option than to revert your changes.Widening of Kareivių does not need new vectors as there will be no physical barriers. Once again, instead of complaining you should better rea... | |
| 49301713 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-06-18 14:22:30 UTC | Nearo | Hello Meijerry,In this changeset you changed the French name of Maastricht, and the English name of Nijmegen. While these names were used in the past, both cities are currently referred to with their Dutch name. The French and English version are not in use anymore. Therefore I would like to kin... |
| 2 | 2017-06-19 06:37:17 UTC | Jay May | Hello Nearo.As a French guy, I can tell you it is true Maëstricht is not used by the current generation, but I stilll know elderly people who use it.About reverting changes: I am abroad right now & I can hardly access any computer. Could you please revert those changes for me this time?... | |
| 3 | 2017-06-19 21:14:59 UTC | Nearo | Hey Jerry,I just changed the name:fr tag of Maastricht to old_name:fr. Furthermore I found some old documents where Nijmegen is referred to as Nimeguen in English, so I did the same with the name:en tag there.Kind regards,Nearo | |
| 4 | 2017-06-20 04:22:55 UTC | Jay May | Thanks :) | |
| 49262552 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-06-05 10:31:36 UTC | Tomas Straupis | Reverted random destruction of highway classification. |
| 2 | 2017-06-05 15:22:41 UTC | Jay May | This is no highway... I have friends living in that part of the city and I drove there 2 days ago. That street is not asphalted, bumpy, and not suitable for big traffic. | |
| 3 | 2017-06-05 16:21:11 UTC | Tomas Straupis | Please study according to what principles ways are classified. Paved, not paved, bumpy or not has absolutely no influence on classification.Good rule is to NOT edit what is already entered, because most of the time you're destroying good data and I could one day decide to revert full changesets r... | |
| 4 | 2017-06-05 18:22:59 UTC | Jay May | Following your logic, Tomas, it means OSM is useless because you can't correct mistakes from previous users nor add forrest tracks for bikers, nor update road classification changes, etc. OSM's advantage is that if any change has been seen on spot, it can be made immediately. If some roads appear 30... | |
| 49261280 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-06-05 10:27:33 UTC | Tomas Straupis | Reverted random destruction of routing tag „noexit“. |
| 2 | 2017-06-05 15:23:53 UTC | Jay May | ? | |
| 3 | 2017-06-05 15:52:54 UTC | Jay May | What is that "noexit" tag? | |
| 4 | 2017-06-05 16:22:45 UTC | Tomas Straupis | If you do not know what that tag is and how it is used, then do NOT change its values. | |
| 5 | 2017-06-05 18:10:03 UTC | Jay May | First of all: I'm not your child, so please speak nicer to me. I am pretty confident I'm older than you are.Second: if I touched it not knowing what it is, it means I didn't do it on purpose.Third: you didn't answer my question: what is that "noexit" tag? | |
| 49263356 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-06-05 10:36:52 UTC | Tomas Straupis | Reverted random incorrect classification. |
| 2 | 2017-06-05 15:25:38 UTC | Jay May | ? Incorrect classification of what? | |
| 49051984 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-05-29 20:04:35 UTC | RichRico | Hi meijerry,Thanks for contributing with osm, the names according with wikidata are different the names that you modified https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q743218regards |
| 2 | 2017-05-30 09:21:49 UTC | Jay May | Are you referring to Janów nad Wilią in Polish and Янава in Belarusian? Janów na Wilią is available in a couple of sources, among which wikimapia http://wikimapia.org/739189/pl/Jan%C3%B3w-nad-Wili%C4%85 and Янава is the traditional Belarusian name (https://be-tarask.wikip... | |
| 3 | 2017-05-30 12:11:05 UTC | Jay May | Added "Janów" in alt_name:pl and "Ёнава" in alt_name:be. For Belarusian names abroad, I will try to add always the traditional name as primary as that is the one that is used by Belarusian speakers (and not simple transliterations) :) Any additional questions, feel ... | |
| 48964859 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-05-26 19:00:46 UTC | RichRico | Hi meijerryThanks for contributing with OSM,I found a changeset in the name of the place:town Salacgrīva according Wikidata Q659665 the name is "name:pl=Salacgrīva" and not "name:pl=salis".Maybe you have a another explanation for the name Salis.Regards |
| 2 | 2017-05-26 19:39:31 UTC | Jay May | Hi! Sure. In this specific case it is wikipedia in Polish (though it is shown as a historical name). I know it sounds more Lithuanian than Polish, but well... you know how it is in PL/BY/LT/LV where Baltic names tend to be mixed with Slavic ones. As I know wikipedia is far from perfect, for other Po... | |
| 48570950 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-05-10 19:35:40 UTC | Tomas Straupis | Note that it is a CRIMINAL OFFENCE to use Google Maps or Google Street View for OSM. My advice is to revert all changes promptly and read terms of usage of any source you use BEFORE using them. In this case it would be good thing to read Google terms of service. |
| 2 | 2017-05-12 07:18:37 UTC | Jay May | Change reverted (it was only one field road ...) | |
| 3 | 2017-05-12 07:46:45 UTC | Jay May | Btw, I read those Google terms. There is only one mention that may make you think it is a criminal offence (but this sentence is still ambiguous): "No incorporating Google software into other software. You will not incorporate any software provided as part of the Service into other software.&qu... | |
| 4 | 2017-05-12 08:28:05 UTC | Tomas Straupis | This paragraph is regarding software. Regarding data Google has stated numerous times that it is not allowed to vectorise data from google sattelite imagery, google maps or google street view. | |
| 48416514 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-05-05 09:15:01 UTC | Tomas Straupis | Reverted some incorrect changes of stream names. |
| 2 | 2017-05-05 13:55:11 UTC | Jay May | Aaaaaaaaa. I wanted to fill them in Polish, not in the "name" tag".Thanks. | |
| 3 | 2017-05-05 13:55:27 UTC | Jay May | (I mean: in "name:pl" and not in "name") | |
| 48331808 by Tomas Straupis | 1 | 2017-05-02 11:23:25 UTC | Jay May | Hi Tomas, why do you keep deleting the border checkpoint limits? I enter them so it is clear where they are, and so do OSM users around the world.Moreover, I had created a couple of lanes on the Lavoriškės checkpoint in order to ease border crossing for people ("All passports", &... |
| 2 | 2017-05-02 11:30:41 UTC | Tomas Straupis | Because these (and a lot of other) objects are not tagged according to OpenStreetMap wiki information. Randomly mapped data is useless and it only introduces unnecessary complexity.As per mapping agreements in Lithuania lanes are NOT mapped as separate vectors bur rather as additional lane tags on... | |
| 3 | 2017-05-03 07:44:58 UTC | Jay May | You could have written that earlier - we are people, aren't we? It is important to talk. I am new to openstreetmap and so far, absolutely no one in Latvia, Belarus, Russian or Poland made any problem out of my changes to any border checkpoint, road, name, etc.as the aim is to be as accurate as possi... | |
| 4 | 2017-05-03 08:35:59 UTC | Tomas Straupis | As far as I know nobody in the countries you mention is doing hourly changeset review. I did see a number of errors outside Lithuania, so somebody sometime WILL notice them and do something about it.By "randomly" I mean that you did not check the meaning/usage of tags in OSM wiki. You wo... | |
| 47998055 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-04-24 11:03:29 UTC | poornibadrinath | Hi meijerry, I came across your edits and noticed while you added the town name, you have deleted the place=town tag itself. Please be careful when you are editing and ensure you are not deleting any valuable data while editing a feature. Thanks!Best,Poornima |
| 2 | 2017-04-24 18:33:40 UTC | Jay May | Hi Poornima!Thanks for your note.How can I see where is the mistake I made? I see only a zone, but not the place itself. Kind regardsJerry | |
| 3 | 2017-04-26 06:30:03 UTC | poornibadrinath | Hi Jerry, This is the node for which you deleted the town tag. You can open the node in JOSM and check. http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/317360830Poornima | |
| 4 | 2017-04-26 08:37:03 UTC | Jay May | Wow, I hadn't even seen I deleted it! Thanks! | |
| 48119343 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-04-25 16:16:14 UTC | Tomas Straupis | Atstatytas teisingas (oficialus) gyvenvietės pavadinimas „Elzbietina“. |
| 2 | 2017-04-25 18:07:49 UTC | Jay May | O.K. Ačiū | |
| 48084712 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-04-25 06:05:21 UTC | Tomas Straupis | Reverted surface to asphalt, because Lithuanian road agency says that is the surface of this road. |
| 2 | 2017-04-25 06:19:44 UTC | Jay May | Hmmm. Strange. Last time I drove there it was a horrible dirt road. I will try to check it out one of the next times I drive to Poland. | |
| 47996337 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-04-21 10:10:32 UTC | Tomas Straupis | restored incorrectly deleted place=village on node 3093855128http://osmhistory.appspot.com/changeset/47996337 |
| 2 | 2017-04-21 10:39:29 UTC | Jay May | Thanks. My computer crashed when I was modifying that one ... | |
| 47972121 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-04-21 07:07:59 UTC | Tomas Straupis | „(rejon wileński)“ is definitely NOT part of the NAME in any language. |
| 2 | 2017-04-21 09:47:05 UTC | Jay May | Which name are you talking about? Sometimes when you add a name in a language it automatically adds some indications like "rejon wileński" and so on. Perhaps it is somehow linked with Wikipedia? | |
| 3 | 2017-04-21 10:07:18 UTC | Tomas Straupis | I do not use iD. I just see that data had name:pl="Kiemiany (rejon wileński)"http://osmhistory.appspot.com/changeset/47972121 | |
| 4 | 2017-04-21 10:38:06 UTC | Jay May | Hmmm... Strange. Anyway, as I told you - I remember it was made automatically. Perhaps to distinguish it from the village Кемяны on the other side of the border, which is also called "Kiemiany" in Polish. Technology mysteries :D | |
| 47992384 by Jay May | 1 | 2017-04-21 07:13:19 UTC | Tomas Straupis | Please do not change local names without knowledge on how they are used. |
| 2 | 2017-04-21 09:45:37 UTC | Jay May | Hi. I live in Vilnius, I went already 3 times to Varnikai and I know people in this institution: http://www.vstt.lt/VI/index.php. The official name is Varnikų pažintinis takas and not Varnikų gamtos takas. Moreover, please have a look by yourself:http://www.15min.lt/pasaulis-kiseneje/naujiena/p... | |
| 3 | 2017-04-21 10:04:37 UTC | Tomas Straupis | OK. Changed name to „Varnikų pažintinis takas“ on all objects (ways, pois and relation). | |
