Apologies Ray, just in the process of moving (and selling) homes at the moment. Will have a look as soon as I can

It's entirely possible I traced it incorrectly. I will review and come back to you with an update. Thanks for highlighting

welcome back to OSM after a long break :)

Your townland edits are most welcome, especially in Cork

Cé Na Mara is an apartment block. I haven't done a detailed survey so I cant be certain about where they overlap if they do at all

About time someone did this, nice work

The reasoning behind the change seems perfectly logical. If your nick showed up in my feed and I was able to see your change for what it was then there would be no issue as far as I am concerned. However the problem is the size of the area your changeset bounding box covers. It means I can't do a quick validation of an edit done by a user not local so I have to do extra digging, leave changeset comments etc. The end result, a lot of irritation and wasted time by all involved. Please keep this in mind the next time you plan on making fixes. Just for the record I agree with the fix you made here, but next time consider local mappers who monitor edits

Please limit your changes to smaller areas. Given the amount of changes you made and the size of the area, it is impossible for local mappers to verify if your changes are correct. Your changeset comment is also very poor, what exactly did you fix?? I am seriously tempted to revert your changes or at the least escalate to the DWG. I await your response

aseerel, I think you are confusing a few different issues here.

aseerel - "There may be reasons where mappers intentionally used the amenity=shop tag in addition to shop=blafoo. "

Personally I can see no logical reason to use both.

pyrog - Overall I welcome this update, but would advise in future to break this into smaller changesets which cover smaller areas which would allow you to get in direct contact with the local community.

Where there is resistance to doing a mass edit there are other options such as mass adding of notes to suggest local mappers make the change themselves based on local knowledge. User math1985 has done it this way with his updates to shops around the UK & Ireland

Hi, Polar Bears dont use houses. Please stop adding fake information to the map

I also removed the "Unicorn House" name from this also

Hi, I'm pretty sure this building is not called Fairy Princess' Casa. I've removed this information as I believe it to be false based on some of your other edits. Please ensure you only add legit info to the map as this is live map data in use

Hi, Please be aware the data you are editing is live map data, also Hogwarts is not located here, you need to go to platform 9 and 3 quarters and get the train :)

Seriously though, don't add silly stuff to the data, only legit info

Hi,

I love that you are fixing a lot of naming issues, but could youplease do changesets that cover smaller areas and its not possible to identify if your change affects an area Im monitoring or not as it covers half the globe

I've no problem at all coming down, I'll give the lecturer a shout as its up to him

Hi there, I am assuming you are one of the LIT folks that started editing today. I made a few modifications to your edits, I hope you dont mind. I added the pitch outlines and some of the GAA buildings etc and a road

Feel free to shout if you need any assistance

Thanks,

Hi Jalice, I hope you dont mind but I added additional features based on your edits.

By the way, I assume you are one of the people on the LIT course. If you need any assistance feel free to shout

Thanks,

Hi Mark, I edited the features you added. The playground, I marked out the full area of it, and the estate you edited, I added walls, split buildings, added grassy areas, tidied roads etc. I removed the number of the house you added as it was a detached house and I couldn't be sure which part should be numbered. Feel free to add the number back again or even add the numbers for all of the houses in that estate.

It looks like you are using the iD editor, so using that editor, when you click on the building, you should see the option to add the housenumber there.

I've also added the addr:street tag to all the buildings in that estate with the name of the estate you added to the roads, hope this is all one estate, let me know if its not, or feel free to correct it yourself

Information like the name of this cemetery is exactly the kind of information needed. I've updated the area based on the info you provided, take a look at it now

Hi Mark, I am assuming you are one of the LIT students. Please be aware that the data in OpenStreetMap is live data used worldwide on many maps across many websites and applications. Please do not add fictitious features to the map, even in the middle of the ocean. If you have any questions, please let me know.
