If you revert, please specify what you are reverting. Your only recent changeset is a large one, and it is not easy to examine it and determine what changes of mine you reverted.

In this case, I assume that you changed one of my highway=tertiary back to a highway=secondary purely because it is a paved road. Was there anything besides that one instance?

Wild camping spots do not belong on OSM. If a tourism=camp_site is not signposted as a camping ground, it is not verifiable. (Instead, the iOverlander app, for example, has become a popular place to list wild camping opportunities.) So, if these camp sites are merely places you think it would be comfortable to camp, and not formal infrastructure, please remove them.

The main entrance is at the top of stairs without a wheelchair ramp. Therefore, I tagged it wheelchair=no.

However, the POI in general is wheelchair-accessible: at the foot of those stairs is a button with a wheelchair symbol that disabled visitors can press. I assume that they are then shown to an alternative entrance=yes somewhere else in the building, or staff come out of the building to serve them outside.

This same setup is found on many government buildings in Poland, I find it often on village post offices.

Yes, I have noticed this. However, I do not think this usage of an ad hoc tag, mainly limited to a single Polish city and with no wiki description, is ideal. There is a way to tag these objects so that they are readily available both to worldwide consumers of OSM data (who would appreciate being able to extract artwork_type=sculpture here) and to mappers concerned with the Wroclaw gnomes specifically. I am presently working on a proposal for the OSM forum to get the views of others.

Further changes are coming.

Also, in English the customary term for these kind of figures depicted in statues is "gnome", not "dwarf". See Google results: the number of hits for "Wroclaw dwarf" is less than a third that of for "Wroclaw gnome".

Yes, but the problem is that you have set artwork_type to a value that is not even suggested by the wiki:

osm.wiki/Key:artwork_type

You set the artwork_type to what the artwork *depicts*, and not what the *type of artwork* is. Consequently, this POI will be missed by, for example, consumers of OSM data who are interested in extracting data on all sculptures.

I see that you replaced indoor=corridor with highway=corridor. Why did you feel that this tagging was more appropriate?

As the wiki explains, "Some more recent tagging systems, such as Simple Indoor Tagging, use a different set of tags under the indoor=* key."

osm.wiki/Tag:highway%3Dcorridor

And it is the Simple Indoor Tagging schema that I am trying to use in my own indoor mapping.

Thanks for the explanation. Now could you please set artwork_type to a tag that will be universally understood?

"It's perfect now because it doesn't cover an address and other POI."

This is mapping for the renderer, which as you know if often discouraged. Plus, OSM.org, OSMAnd and Maps.me, etc. will show or hide POIs and addresses differently.

In this case, it doesn’t make a difference because I didn’t go into the building up to the other floors. However, sometimes when mapping I do go into buildings and try to position the POIs in the right places, so in the future please don’t move POIs I set without at least giving me a heads up in a changeset comment

Your change from building=school to amenity=school for Scoala George Baritiu in Turda was not “fixing”. In fact, you did damage.

The entire area comprising multiple school buildings is already tagged as amenity=school. The main school building should therefore have a tag building=school, but it should not be tagged amenity=school.

Your change resulted in an erroneous amenity=school within amenity=school, and it prevented the main school building from being rendered.

Please be more careful in future. Always check to see if the area around school buildings is already tagged as amenity=school.

What is the basis for moving the location of the Adam Bilinski POI which I added?

If the POI is still there and I missed it, it would be good to set artwork_type to a value described on the wiki, so that mappers know what exactly they should be looking for.

I was unable to verify the existence of the artwork when I walked the street last night. That is why I removed it, along with other things (shops) that no longer exist on this street. Did you verify it with your own eyes before restoring?

I can’t stand being criticized by people who do it rudely and brusquely because, as I said, you risk scaring off less-confident editors and newbies by doing this.

Also, your claim that waiting a period of time before tweaking edits and fixing errors, "is discouraged by the OSM community" is completely false. In fact, the organized OSM community often works precisely in this way, and it was how I was taught to edit by my local club.

One of the common formats for local OSM mapping parties is e.g. a Saturday spent walking the streets and making edits with one’s phone, and only on the following Sunday (or even the next weekend) does the local community sit down somewhere at their laptops with JOSM or iD and improve on those edits and fix any mistakes which where introduced.

Mistakes happen, and in future you ought to be patient as editors fix their own mistakes instead of complaining that OSMAnd Live (which is not even the version that every OSMAnd user is running) updates hourly. If you were complaining about an actual street, then the matter would be urgent, but this is a building passage that leads to no major POIs, and the probability of anyone needing to route to it in the interim is very low.

As these examples were added by disparate editors, then the examples you link to are not in themselves convincing, as those editors could have simply thrown every seemingly valid tag at the node.

However, I see now that Vespucci does not overwrite tags when setting up a historical=memorial and then going on to choose tourism=artwork from the menu. That does convince me that this tags may be reasonably combined (though one may wonder why Vespucci does not automatically tag the POI with both tags if, as you claim, both are important.) Therefore, I will let both tags stand in future.

However, note that in several of your linked examples, artwork_type=statue is used to complement memorial=statue. Therefore, your tagging choice of artwork_type=sculpture ought to be changed. Indeed, the OSM wiki says, “If the work represents people or animals, you should use artwork_type = statue.”

Again, you do not own Wroclaw. I have spoken about your behaviour with other mappers, and indeed if you continue to be so territorial, then it could lead to DWG involvement against you.

I am not going to be intimidated by your behaviour. But the sad thing is that you are probably scaring off less confident mappers and newbies with your attitude.

Yes, this part of Wroclaw is very incomplete. While I added a lot of shops and opening hours on my last walk on these streets, I barely scratched the surface. Instead of harassing me over my edits, why don’t you walk these same streets and improve the map?

And yes, fixing errors days later is a completely normal course of action. Remember that OSM counts many editors who do not have broadband internet access. The most common apps for end users to access OSM routing data like tunnels only update their files on a monthly basis or even less frequently, and therefore a gap of a few days is not a huge emergency.

This portion of Wroclaw is very incomplete on OSM, so if a tunnel is duplicated for a few days in the course of adding a large number of POIs, then it is still a net positive.

It is useful that my edits are being reviewed by others. However, you do not own Wroclaw on OSM, and harassing me over my edits is inappropriate.
