How to verify your OpenStreetMap-account on Mastodon?

ارسالی از Pieter Vander Vennet در 9 نوامبر 2024 به English. آخرین به‌روزرسانی در 13 ژوئن 2025.

Hey all,

If you want to verify your OSM-account and get that nice badge, this is possible.

UPDATE: since june (or was it may?) 2025, the OSM website introduced “social links” in the user profile. You can link your mastodon account in there and save. (*)

Then, on your Mastodon-account, go to Preferences > Public Profile. Under ‘extra fields’, set ‘OpenStreetMap’ to the left and a link to your account to the right.

(*): Previously, one had to add a html-link with rel="me" attribute into the user profile.

Where to place the link to Mastodon in the second sentence?

@Doofus Magoo: I was a bit distracted while writing this; I’ve updated the second sentence and it should be clear now.

نظر از Doofus Magoo در 9 نوامبر 2024 ساعت 11:59

Thank you! In the very last sentence, I’m putting in Mastodon a link to my OSM account, yes?

So put a link to Mastodon in OSM, and a link to OSM in Mastodon – I think I got it! Thank you!

Yup, it worked. I can see your green checkmark, you are verified on Mastodon.

If you make an edit with https://mapcomplete.org, then https://en.osm.town/@mapcomplete_edits will tag you ;)

Sorry, I’m missing something: in osm the profile text is markdown formatted; if I write the html style tag you suggested, it doesn’t appear as a link kn my profile, but as a text. What am I doing wrong?

Nevermind, I missed an apostrophe character! 😅

Your profile on OSM has a correct link. Your mastodon profile is linked correctly to. To force Mastodon to validate again, change something about your fields in Mastodon and you’ll get your green checkmark too.

After correcting the typo and changing something, as you suggested, it worked! Thank you

(Btw I found the tipon weeklyosm, just wanted let you know)

Jup, I see the checkmark on your profile too now!

Yeah, I read the Weekly too and saw that they mentioned this.
