| 2 | 2021-01-13 16:39 | cfmccormick | Hi Michael -Thanks for your interest in our work. Yes, I am part of an organized editing effort with the wiki page you found. We did indeed contact the community through the Forum, once in October 2020 to ask for volunteers to participate in the project, and again in November 2020 to announc... | |
| 3 | 2021-01-13 20:35 | Nakaner ♦3,142 | Hi,the guideline says:> After the Wiki page is set up, the affected OSM communities should be informed through a suitable post: the general-purpose “talk” mailing list or, if the activity is limited to one country or region, on a regional mailing list or other channels which t... | |

You have also removed from the power plant the information about the electrical power and the fuel (coal) used.You belong to some mappers who in the past few days worldwide only change power plants, ... |
| 2 | 2020-11-04 18:04 | cfmccormick | Hi, thanks for your guidance on this. I did not intentionally change those tags. Instead, I changed the Feature Type of those towers from "Industrial Building" to "Cooling Tower", since they are obviously hyperboloid cooling towers. However, it seems that the tags associated with... | |

| 4 | 2020-11-04 18:08 | cfmccormick | One further comment - I forgot to respond to your question about removing the fuel type (coal). Again, I did not intentionally remove this tag. Instead, I changed the way to Feature Type "Power Plant Grounds" which seems appropriate for this area. Apparently that deletes the tag related to... | |
| 5 | 2020-11-05 09:40 | DD1GJ ♦2,273 | Thank you for the information and for stopping editing for the moment. Worldwide discussions about tagging take place on the following mailing list.https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/taggingFor example, it is quite common that there are several common tagging methods for cooling towers... | |
| 6 | 2020-11-09 02:56 | cfmccormick | Thanks for this guidance. We've followed the guidelines applying to organized processing of a group that you indicated, including following up on our initial announcement/request for volunteers here:https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=70904and setting up a wiki page here:... | |

| 2 | 2020-11-03 20:26 | cfmccormick | Hi, thanks for the guidance on tagging. However, I did not intentionally delete those tags. Perhaps they were deleted when I changed Feature Type to Power Station Grounds? Unfortunately, I cannot find any guidance at the link you provided about when to use Power Station Grounds vs. Coal-Fired Power ... | |
| 3 | 2020-11-03 20:53 | aweech ♦369 | I opened a bug report in iD since you say that it wasn't intentional.Regarding when to use Power Station Grounds vs. Coal-Fired Power Plant, only use the Power Station Grounds when you do not know any of the sources the plant uses. It does not matter that the plant may be retrofitted in the... |
