natural=wood and landuse=forest completely camouflage streets (especially highway=trunk) in low zoom levels. Do you see the three rings of highway=trunk around Moscow in the attached screenshot? I don’t.

What do you think? Please leave your comments here:

After browsing that interesting set of strange borders: https://www.flickr.com/photos/amapple/3416483188/in/set-72157616310862857 I had a closer look at those islands and found that strange street project there.

So I used the “history” feature of OSM to find out who did it: osm.org/history#map=14/65.6658/-168.3774

Answer: I could not find out this and I am, one more time, very annoyed with this feature. It is an un-feature because it is implemented in the wrong way. Instead of showing all the change sets which are inside the chosen boundaries it does it the other way around: it shows all the changesets which have the selected area inside themselves. Not only is this wrong it also makes this “feature” completely unusable: The list of those huge, sometimes world wide change sets is huge and so when you’re trying to figure out what went on in a specific area you usually get a list which is spammed by tons of those huge change sets (most often change sets from wheelmap.org, followed by bots and some users who have the strange habit of “fixing” things all over the world). But such huge change sets are not the real problem here. The real problem is that the data is selected the wrong way: change sets that contain the selected area are shown instead of change sets that have changes inside the selected are. Please somebody fix this! It is annoying to no end. And sorry for the rant, I am just somewhat annoyed and haven’t learned to suffer without complaining yet („Lerne leiden, ohne zu klagen, das ist das Einzige, was ich dich lehren kann.“ Kaiser Friedrich III). I don’t want to offend anybody.

Is there a way to upload images (screenshots of the map) here so that I don’t need to resort to an external hoster?

Thanks!
