721986 by blackadder @ 2009-01-03 17:21 ~ 17 years ago	1	~ 3 months ago	mueschel ♦7,021	Hi, it looks like you added "STAG_ADMIN:" and "STAG_BUILT:" tags to some highways almost two decades ago. Is there any use for these tags nowadays or can they be removed? e.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/74810763
	2	~ 3 months ago	blackadder	Yep, back in the early days of forming tagging schema. No longer needed and can safely be deleted. Cheers Andy An
12641995 by blackadder @ 2012-08-07 07:28 ~ 13 years ago	1	~ 3 months ago	rskedgell ♦1,804	I realise that this edit was made a very long time ago, but would the un-gated and unadopted streets within the Four Oaks Park private estate now be better tagged as ownership=private + access=destination ?
174663918 by blackadder @ 2025-11-14 20:13 ~ 4 months ago	1	~ 4 months ago	Pink Duck ♦166	If you remember/have photo, could add post_box:type and royal_cypher tags perhaps?
404 by blackadder @ 2005-10-02 22:35 ~ 20 years ago	1	~ 1 year ago	Geocacher1 ♦2	Error, changeset not found
	2	~ 1 year ago	blackadder	I'm not even sure we had changesets back then!
14248446 by blackadder @ 2012-12-12 12:21 ~ 13 years ago	1	~ 1 year ago	mueschel ♦7,021	Hi, a long time ago, you added the tag "blue_badge_holders=yes". Isn't that tagged disabled=yes nowadays? https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/20841793/history
158309283 by blackadder @ 2024-10-24 18:41 ~ 1 year ago	1	~ 1 year ago	Robert Whittaker ♦306	Could I check if you intended to remove the shop=trade tag from https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/374420094 in this changeset? If so, what the current status of this branch?
	2	~ 1 year ago	blackadder	A senior moment I guess ;-) Fixed Cheers
154486470 by blackadder @ 2024-07-27 14:18 ~ 1 year ago	1	~ 1 year ago	Syl ♦1,045	Hello, the phone still work? Very few in France does.
	2	~ 1 year ago	blackadder	Good question, alas I did not check it.
39264204 by blackadder @ 2016-05-12 11:07 ~ 9 years ago	1	~ 2 years ago	daganzdaanda ♦288	Hi blackadder, I noticed there are a few old "demolished_building = yes" in Birmingham. Do you think it's still sensible to keep them in the database? My guess would be, that they are long enough gone to be deleted. Of course the current tagging would use lifecycle prefixes instead....
	2	~ 2 years ago	blackadder	Haha, yes, very early doors when we moved from just Segments to Ways
37663697 by blackadder @ 2016-03-07 11:27 ~ 10 years ago	1	~ 7 years ago	Josef73 ♦291	Hello, when is here open?
	2	~ 7 years ago	blackadder	Sorry, I only visited once. I see I added some opening times when I edited it.
	3	~ 3 years ago	Josef73 ♦291	I will remove the opening_hours

44519951 by blackadder @ 2016-12-19 16:34 ~ 9 years ago	1	~ 3 years ago	mueschel ♦7,021	Hi, you used the tag "wheeling_ramp" on two ways. Could you check if one of the common ramp tags fits instead? https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/460573357
47619112 by blackadder @ 2017-04-10 11:20 ~ 8 years ago	1	~ 3 years ago	lyctkel ♦360	Hi blackadder, the temporary building at https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/485844119 does now exist for 7 years. Maybe it's an option to change it to building=tent. See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:building%3Dtent for details.Regards, lyctkel
	2	~ 3 years ago	blackadder	I agree, its definitely become at least semi permanent. Feel free to change the tags. Cheers Andy
53211355 by blackadder @ 2017-10-24 15:18 ~ 8 years ago	1	~ 4 years ago	ivanbranco ♦2,865	Hi blackadder, https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/5186335889 was the place value supposed to be the name maybe? can you check it out?
	2	~ 4 years ago	blackadder	Maybe, I can't honestly recall. Its certainly known as the Chapel Head site so feel free to change the tag.
110308164 by blackadder @ 2021-08-26 21:16 ~ 4 years ago	1	~ 4 years ago	Lee Carré ♦666	“Jersey updates” Care to be more specific? 😋 There's a handful of locals to whom such a comment is meaningless.
	2	~ 4 years ago	blackadder	Ha, I'll try and be a little more specific next time. Lazy holiday time! Mostly tweaks to the Devils Hole and surrounding paths.
	3	~ 4 years ago	Lee Carré ♦666	“tweaks to the Devils Hole and surrounding paths.” 👍 the area needs some attention. Hell, the whole northern coast needs surveying.
110137484 by blackadder @ 2021-08-23 21:07 ~ 4 years ago	1	~ 4 years ago	Lee Carré ♦666	“Jersey updates” Care to be more specific? Looks like you mostly added several buildings.
	2	~ 4 years ago	blackadder	Yep, staying in one of them for a few days
	3	~ 4 years ago	Lee Carré ♦666	Spiffy; enjoy. I had assumed that this was armchair-mapping, since source != survey. Thanks; we're rather lacking on the building-outline front (among many other features).
	4	~ 4 years ago	blackadder	Always try to add a bit here and there when I visit. Will add what I can. Cheers Andy
65485728 by blackadder @ 2018-12-14 21:12 ~ 7 years ago	1	~ 5 years ago	SK53 ♦868	Hi Andy, Just wondered if St Mary's Drive should be residential rather than unclassified. Presumably it was originally the service road driveway for the golf club before the houses were built, or were the houses built at the same time. Jerry
	2	~ 5 years ago	blackadder	Hey Jerry, Used to be the road through the Abbey. Noth end these days is just a track and southern end the access to the hotel and golf course along with the upmarket houses they built more recently either side of the road. I agree its more residential than unclassified these days. Cheers Andy
44238649 by blackadder @ 2016-12-07 15:55 ~ 9 years ago	1	~ 6 years ago	Mateusz Konieczny ♦9,657	What is the intended meaning of construction=cutting tag used for example at https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/458305617 ?
	2	~ 6 years ago	blackadder	That section of the track is proposed to be in cutting
	3	~ 6 years ago	Mateusz Konieczny ♦9,657	I think that cutting=yes is usually used for such things. Maybe proposed:cutting=yes if someone likes namespaces. (I encountered this because I was fixing railway=tram construction=tram type of tagging mistakes and this is railway=proposed construction=* way)
	4	~ 6 years ago	blackadder	I'm easy on this. The tagging format probably dates back to 2012 when I did the import for Phase 1 and the translation from the government data to OSM tags wasn't as mature as it would be today. Anyway, feel free to adjust though note none of the HS2 route sections are in build currently t...
14248163 by blackadder @ 2012-12-12 11:53 ~ 13 years ago	1	~ 6 years ago	mueschel ♦7,021	Hi, I found various 'STAG_*' tags on this park - Are they still meaningful? https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/2634482 Jan
	2	~ 6 years ago	blackadder	They could be changed to something more appropriate. They stem back to a time 12 or more years ago when I was looking to create a new version of the tagging schema which I didnt take further. Some of these tags may have some relevance but certainly they could be reviewed and updated or deleted as re...
77986148 by blackadder @ 2019-12-05 10:34 ~ 6 years ago	1	~ 6 years ago	BCNorwich ♦5,127	Hi, re Way: 402053671 in this changeset, an area with long self intersection tails. I can't make out the area it was meant to cover. Could you have a look at it please. Regards Bernard.
	2	~ 6 years ago	blackadder	Hi Bernard, looks like I messed up the original landuse when converting and combing for the new construction area extent. Will fix in my next edit session. Cheers Andy
10447705 by blackadder @ 2012-01-20 15:50 ~ 14 years ago	1	~ 6 years ago	SK53 ♦868	Hi Andy, Is 314 Boldmere Road (https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/145042764) really a social club just looks like an ordinary semi to me on Bing Streetside. Jerry
	2	~ 6 years ago	blackadder	No I'm sure thats wrong. I must have accidentally tagged the wrong building as the North Birmingham Bridge Club just down the road and mapped at the same time should have that tag and doesn't. I'll fix when next editing. Cheers Andy
	3	~ 6 years ago	SK53 ♦868	Thanks, I'm just looking at social clubs because iD is changing the tagging (incorrectly) and it has highlighted inconsistency in tags. Mainly we're looking for working man's club style social clubs which are pseudo-pubs.
45860748 by blackadder @ 2017-02-06 16:51 ~ 9 years ago	1	~ 6 years ago	Mateusz Konieczny ♦9,657	Can you look at https://www.openstreetmap.org/note/1765600 ? It seems that some notes about vacant object maybe should be removed.
	2	~ 6 years ago	blackadder	Are you saying you don't like the use of the word (vacant) because its not the name of the place? I use it as a useful placeholder to keep an eye on changes when retail units are temporarily empty.
	3	~ 6 years ago	Mateusz Konieczny ♦9,657	I replied on note on topic of note itself, but name=(vacant) is a bit problematic - it is not name of this building. I would remove it during survey as incorrect but I am not going to remove here it remotely.
65470035 by blackadder @ 2018-12-14 11:43 ~ 7 years ago	1	~ 7 years ago	mueschel ♦7,021	Hi, could you explain the meaning of the tag "vesting_declaration_date=20171114"? This isn't used in any other place. Jan
	2	~ 7 years ago	blackadder	Hi Jan, Vesting Declaration is the same as compulsory purchase. These are land parcels that have been purchased for HS2 and will be cleared shortly (some already have been) in order to construct HS2 Phase 1
54462399 by blackadder @ 2017-12-08 15:51 ~ 8 years ago	1	~ 7 years ago	Warin61 ♦2,778	Hi, On Way: 545490074 you have tagged landuse=scrub. I have not changed it, but I think it should be tagged natural=scrub. See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural%3Dscrub
26740050 by blackadder @ 2014-11-12 17:35 ~ 11 years ago	1	~ 7 years ago	Warin61 ♦2,778	Hi, For Way: 310213093 you have tagged landuse=scrub. Scrub is not a 'landuse', in OSM the tag to use is 'natural=scrub'.
57985523 by blackadder @ 2018-04-10 21:16 ~ 7 years ago	1	~ 7 years ago	Warin61 ♦2,778	Hi, For Way: 578649115 you have tagged landuse=scrub. Scrub is not a 'landuse', in OSM the tag to use is 'natural=scrub'.
11993690 by blackadder @ 2012-06-23 21:25 ~ 13 years ago	1	~ 8 years ago	sperlingskauz ♦74	Hi blackadder, for your information: I changed your tagging man_made = bee_hive to man_made = beehive. The reason is that since this year there is a wiki page for beehives. Regards, sperlingskauz
50763194 by blackadder @ 2017-08-01 19:47 ~ 8 years ago	1	~ 8 years ago	Robert Whittaker ♦306	Did you make a mistake with some of the postcodes in this changeset -- the following three houses have addr:postcode=JAJB https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/452146161 https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/452146159 https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/452146152
	2	~ 8 years ago	blackadder	Ha, nice catch. Clearly wasn't paying attention! Will fix next time I'm editing in that area. Cheers Andy
47005822 by blackadder @ 2017-03-20 08:58 ~ 9 years ago	1	~ 8 years ago	RobJN ♦78	Good spot! We need a way of sharing our list of checked edits so that we don't duplicate effort :-)
43811825 by blackadder @ 2016-11-19 23:14 ~ 9 years ago	1	~ 9 years ago	Mike Baggaley ♦630	Hi blackadder, I know it is a little while ago, but your edit of relation 4292131 (Wharton Retail Park) seems to have left it with an incomplete outline. I'm not sure whether the unclosed line is part of the retail park or not. Can you take a look at http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/429213...
	2	~ 9 years ago	blackadder	Looks like my cleaning up was so clean after all! Thanks for spotting. Will fix when next editing in that area unless you get to it first?
	3	~ 9 years ago	blackadder	s/was/wasn't
44238054 by blackadder @ 2016-12-07 15:32 ~ 9 years ago	1	~ 9 years ago	mueschel ♦7,021	Hi, do we really need tags like these in OSM? chainage_end=27161.5996094 chainage_start=14396.2998047 shape_length=12765.2998022 Btw, the key name:proposed should be proposed:name. Jan
41419458 by blackadder @ 2016-08-12 21:48 ~ 9 years ago	1	~ 9 years ago	Robert Whittaker ♦306	The postcode of "SW9 8JT" on the houses along Hartford Road, e.g. http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/436951345 looks wrong. (SW is south-west London.)
	2	~ 9 years ago	blackadder	Cheers Robert. Typo should be CW. I'm in the process of mapping out Davenham so will fix as I'm doing the addressing. Cheers Andy
2303745 by blackadder @ 2009-08-29 17:43 ~ 16 years ago	1	~ 10 years ago	utack ♦280	The "Shelfield Child Devlopment Centre" on node 476685156 is missing any main tags
186264 by blackadder @ 2007-01-02 22:53 ~ 19 years ago	1	~ 10 years ago	GerdP ♦2,825	please review node 24352994: What is meant with highway=distance_post ? I assume it is traffic_sign=distance ?
