Please do not use the hostel tag for hotels and hospedajes. ("hostel" in English DOES NOT mean the same thing as "hostal" in Spanish.) For anything called a hospedaje, use the tourism=guest_house tag instead. For hotels, use tourism=hotel. The tag tourism=hostel should only be used for youth hostels, or backpacker accommodation that generally offers a dormitory room.

Hello Mihai, I see that you have returned to OSM editing, but you still are not providing any sources for your edits. For example, what is the origin of all these Romanian-language names for Bulgarian cities? If you cannot provide a source, I am afraid I will have to revert your recent changes.

Thanks for adding this drinking water. But please do not add a name (especially a name in a foreign language) to drinking water sources (and other points of interest) unless they actually have some kind of formal name.

You have already been warned for making unsourced edits and garbage edits. Since this changeset has elements of both (no source, claims of a "Burger King" in two small towns), I have reverted the changeset.

OK, but then please mention this in each edit. Modern OSM tools ask you to specify a source for every single changeset.

Please specify a source for your edits. Writing "Map Reference" as the comment for every single uploaded change is not helpful.

Are "Lowes" and "Walmart" *really* the names of these shops according to the sign posted outside of them? If not, then please remove these names and please do not make up names for POIs.

These name:en tags are completely fictional. This edit must be reverted. I have reported you (yet again) to the Data Working Group for unsourced edits.

This changeset is very problematic because you added barrier=fence to all of the residential properties that you imported. I was just in Jimbolia and I could verify that, firstly, in many cases there is no fence there. So, all of these barrier=fence tags need to be deleted unless a mapper on the ground documents the presence of a fence. There is a reason for being so strict: if a user tries to add a highway=service through some of these places, the editor may flag an error that a highway is intersecting a barrier without an appropriate tag (e.g. barrier=gate)

Secondly, not all these "residential" properties are residential properties. Both landuse=residential and barrier=fence got added to at least one industrial facility in the town where neither tag is actually appropriate.

Great, thanks.

Many of your edits for Turda, CJ are wrong. When you automatically applied postal codes, you made the error of applying the postcode for Turda in Tulcea. Please revert all postcode-adding changes to Turda, or fix your bot so that it can overwrite Turda, Tulcea postcodes with Turda, CJ ones.

Also, you are not supposed to make automated edits without announcing it on the OSM mailing list. Could you please link to your announcement? Thanks!

You continue to write only "UPDATE" for each edit you make. You need to provide a source for your information.

What is the source of all these house numbers? De unde ati luat numarele de case?

V-am rugat frumos sa nu mai adaugati caselor numele proprietarilor. Daca faceti asta in viitor, va trebuie sa va schimb inapoi schimburile dvs., si sa ma plang de dvs. pe OSM mailing list.

I see that you are adding people’s names to houses. Like Mr Ignor in this edit. This is not public information and generally should not be added to OSM. Please respond.

What is your source for the names of shops in Bădeni? There is no sign outside these shops with a name.

Also, when tagging shops, you do not have to write "Magazin" in the name field. That is already indicated by shop=convenience and only creates clutter.

Please be more careful in future when adding POIs. You added the Casamar Hotel in Tarfaya, but the hotel was already there on the map. I have now had to delete the duplicate POI.

Ai scris "Biserica bapitstă" pentru o biserica din satul Bădeni. In primul rand, va rog frumos sa citesti ceea ce ati scris inainte sa faci commit. In al-doilea rând, *nu trebuie* sa scrii o nume asa pentru o biserica daca nu stii numele ei exact. Faptul ca este tagged cu amenity=place_of_worship, religion=christian, denomination=baptist deja este destul sa indice ca este o biserica baptista.

Los de la aduana nos dijieron que está prohibido atravesar el puente en bici o a pie. Se permite sólo en vehículo.

При поиске, например, Ново-Узеево OpenStreetMap не выдает никаких результатов. Только лишь поиск Новоe Узеево дает результаты. Поэтому очень важно добавить old_name или alt_name. Многие пользователи OpenStreetMap могут только в ограниченной степени понимать русский язык (например я – иностранный исследователь чувашского языка), поэтому они могут не знать что данное село надо искать по немного другому названию.

English: If one searches for Ново-Узеево, OpenStreetMap will return no search results. Only searching for Новоe Узеево will return results. That is why it is important to add old_name or alt_name. Many people using OpenStreetMap may have only a limited understanding of Russian (I, for example, am a foreign researcher interested in Chuvash language), so they might not know that a village has to be searched for with a slightly different name.
