Question regarding deletion of some tracks/paths..
Zapsal Crizzu 4. 11. 2016 v jazyce Romanian (Română).Hello. Is there a simple way to see if someone delete a track or path edited by me? I ask this because I discovered by accident that someone deleted one of my edited paths, and I wonder if there are more deleted traks/paths.

I don’t think there any simple ways to do this. You can check which paths are still listing you as “last modifier” by using http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/jP2 though and http://simon04.dev.openstreetmap.org/whodidit/?zoom=12&lat=44.69756&lon=22.49684&layers=BTT&age=6%20month is very usefull for checking activity in your area. Note that the latter site can give you a “rss-link” which is usefull for automatic notifications whenever anyone edits anything in areas of particular interest to you.

https://tyrasd.github.io/osm-qa-feeds/ is a handy tool to grab more monitoring links. It’d be great to keep it updated with other tools.
Most OSM contributors have areas they specially care about, but don’t get too hung up about people editing “your” data specifically. The OSM data is constantly in flux, with some occasional setbacks in quality but generally moving in the right direction. It’s better to worry/care about a specific region/topic than about the particular set of objects you edited.

Thank you both of you for your quick and prompt answers.

Note that http://labs.strava.com/routing-errors can be quite usefull for finding unmapped or erroneously mapped paths or roads. JOSM has Strava cycling & running heatmap layers (just dig them up in the settings) and a custom version of iD will let you see these too: Strava.
Also note that uploaded (to the OSM repository) good quality gps tracks can be similarly usefull for finding missing paths (particularly with JOSM), whether simply unmapped or erroneously edited or deleted. Specifically for this reason I upload lots of gps tracks myself. Should anything happen to paths for which I have some good gps track in the repository they’ll be easy to find and recreate.
