For the Yarbridge Inn, you changed 'Street' from 'Yarbridge' to 'Marshcombe Shute', which is in the next parish. Postcode look-up clearly shows 'Yarbridge, Brading, SANDOWN'.

I have a question about this changeset.

At number 60, you changed an addr:flats=1 to addr:unit=Flat 1; but left the addr:flats=5-12 in place (correcting my typo). But if addr:flats is correct for Flat 5, why should it be addr:unit=Flat 1 for Flat 1?

I don't think either style is wrong...
2 ~ 5 months agoCjMalone (My changeset message here wasn't great, sorry).

addr:flat isn't a real tag, it has very imitated usage globally, literally 290 as of 2025-10-31 00:59 UTC. And is long discouraged on the wiki.

(my changeset message wasn't brilliant either)

addr:flat is a typo, it should have been addr:flats. I've always used addr:flats even if there was only one flat. I've not come across this addr:unit style for flats before. Thank you for explaining it.

I don't think that "shop=mobility" is correct here. That'd be a place where you _buy_ mobility scooters. Shopmobility places tend to be tagged differently, see https://github.com/SomeoneElseOSM/SomeoneElse-style/blob/master/style.lua#L8068 .
2 ~ 2 years agoCjMalone I thought amenity=shopmobility was a copy paste error. There is currently 0 cases in OSM, feel free to move back to it, or something more usable. I have no local knowledge of this so don't know if it sells things.

I'm not sure how it happened, but quite a few of the ones added for York here were wrong. An example was https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2466092653/history , where that naptan code is actually for https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2527494752 , which you can verify via http://deps.at/?32900...
2 ~ 2 years agoCjMalone I've repressed my Naptan memories! :P

If the errors are specific for York, I suspect their data in Naptan has/had issues. It's each local authorities responsibility to update Naptan, and I'm sure some are worse than others.

Taking a look at another website that shows Naptan data...
3 ~ 2 years agoCjMalone Every case with more than 1 naptan:NaptanCode or naptan:AtcoCode is suspect. It was on my TODO list to check them, but I never got far.

Hi, this is a residential area. It seems unlikely that there is a verifiable business here.
If I was a neighbour I would be very cross indeed if my quiet close was full of customers cars.
These businesses tend to be phone/internet and do not belong in OSM.

Cheers Phil
2 ~ 5 years agoCjMalone The website given describes this as a "boutique studio", that sounds like customers come here. So I would argue it does belong in OSM.
It's probably more of a living room type situation, and only open by appointment, but that is pure speculation I don't have a source for that.

The key to adding things to OSM is that they are verifiable. I seriously doubt that there is a sign that someone passing would see.

Also the area covered indicates that this is a visiting service, if it was a shop why would they care? What have people from Mountsorrel, Groby or Glenfield done not...

Then they should navigate to the address as they would for any other domestic dwelling.

We should in these cases map what is verifiable and that is likely to be only the housenumbers.

Hi, when adding details to an object they should refer to that object rather than the brand.

For example you have added facebook and twitter details for ASDA when the local object has both and these should be used.

Also whilst adding these details wouldn't a phone number be more useful?

I have been adding accurate website tags to Asda, replacing generic links, and no links, to branch specific ones.

Sorry, if I removed more accurate social media tags for generic brand tags, that wasn't my intention. tbh I didn't even know each store had it's own social me...

Technology wise it's easy, once I've finished manually matching stores to the website.

On the other hand, the tag 'self_checkout' is already used 50 times and has an entry in the Wiki:
