Hello,
Can you please provide more detailed changeset comments instead of simply Quebec?

I see you have tagged numerous telephone exchanges (central offices) with the ref tag with the area code and CO code. While that may be relevant data to add, I don't believe it belongs in the ref tag.

As I see you have changed the boundary type from "land_area" to "administrative". This is in my opinion wrong. The real administrative boundary is covered by https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/3406826. Probably the boundary tag can be removed completely.

Have you really manually reviewed all of the railway lines in this changeset? That you've edited a railway bridge now used as railtrail ( https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/73313825/history ), far away from any other railway tracks, isn't assuming me the best.

Hi Dartmouthmapmaker,
Thanks for adding the Nepean boundary. In terms of tagging, I don't think boundary=administrative is quite right, since Nepean is not a current administrative entity. boundary=traditional or boundary=historical might be better.

The boundaries you have for Nepean are the original township boundaries, which are used for land registration and a few other purposes. Most references (e.g. by Canada Post) to Nepean are to the old municipality (dissolved in 2001 into Ottawa), which had smaller boundaries.
