The changes tried to fix truly duplicated nodes so I would not revert them but by all means edit any details back on the buildings.

I still don't see the touching line having an outer relationship to Memorial Quadrangle but you are evidently the one with local knowledge. My only interest is to reduce the number of errors in the map and one error more or less is not earthshaking. If you are convinced that reconnecting the members would make a better map you can do it with no worries of an edit battle from me.

The tool is the website 'tools.geofabrik.de' using 'OSM INSPECTOR'. The issue in the change is Branford College and Saybrook College both claim an outer relationship to Memorial Quadrangle. This is just wrong because where they touch it is not an outer at all. The slight gap between them makes the outer legitimate and IMHO shows where each ends making a better map. You are correct about touching buildings but this is two parts of the one Memorial Quadrangle multipolygon object.

Hi Mashin,
I am afraid I do not recognize the area you show but I have separated touching buildings that generate a duplicate segment fault because they share a touching outer relationship for one multipolygon object.
The only two ways I know to clear the fault are to separate the outer segments from contact or to combine the two outlines as one building.
I would be happy to hear other ideas.

I appreciate the landcover comment. The original mapping was flagged as having a problem that would eventually prevented proper rendering. Skellatar Park and OSM are very lucky to have someone so concerned with excellent mapping. I look forward to your revised version that will be even better than the original one.

Hi Warin61,
The entire Skellatar Park area is tagged as sport horse_racing and all fences etc seem to be there. Is there something important missing from the map?

Thanks for the even-handed edit to the Wiki. I assure you I will comply and will comply with whatever consensus is reached.

That is agreeable to me.

Hi zeromap, This is not an earthshaking issue but I do have to take exception to your comment. Your abbreviation reference to at the Names section of the Wiki. However Destination is something different. The Destination section of the Wiki says unequivocally "Value: Just take the text of the signpost" which I agree is best. I think the map would be improved if you roll back your changes.
Your efforts are also appreciated!

I think it would be possible to add 'entrance=yes' or 'entrance=main' to the node. Would this be an improvement?

The node is necessary because without it a navigating system tries to navigate to the airport centroid which is between two runways and says 'Route not found'.Would the node better be labeled "Albany International Airport car entrance" ?? The node has to be an airport to search properly as a point of interest.
