Hi, many thanks for your wonderful contributions around Madurai.

There are a few issues, particularly in this changeset:
1) Removal of Madurai place node tags. Per osm.wiki/Key:place#Mapping_populated_places_as_areas mapping cities as an area is problematic and is discouraged for various reasons. Please undo the change, and as an alternative try to source the boundaries of Madurai Corporation under an open license and add them similiar to osm.org/relation/1766358
2) Merging of Vaigai segments. Having smaller segments is convenient for other mappers and allows mapping various properties like width and flow status that might change through the course. Since the ways were already part of the Vaigai main stream relation, it was already possible to retrieve it as a single object if needed osm.org/relation/3757422 . Merging them serves no advantage.

Its easiest to use osm.wiki/JOSM/Plugins/Reverter to undo this changeset in a single click. let me know if you would like any help.

Done. Sounds like the best approach considering osm.wiki/Disputes#On_the_Ground_Rule

Hi Sundar, Phatehpur Sikri looks like a rather odd spelling. What is the reason to change that?

87093593 about 5 years ago

Hi, you seem to have added an incorrect placeholder name 'addme' for many places. There is no reason to do this since its possible to query unnamed places using overpass.

Please remove these name tags. Let me know if you need help with it

Thanks for all the Gujarat edits.

What is the source for all these alphanumeric street names in Bhuj. Are these real street names or identifiers from some database?

Was updating Kalapani territory according to the new Nepal map https://assets-cdn.kathmandupost.com/uploads/source/news/2020/news/98353477_1682609495224206_5916763212010749952_o.jpg and noticed that the Kuthi Yankti river was renamed to Kali in this changeset.

While doing some research it seems like there are multiple references that establishes the river is called Kuthi Yankt, especially since the hamlet Kuthi also lies herei:
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalapani_territory#Early_19th_century
- https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/96/1955-US-Army-map-Kali-river-sources.jpg/1280px-1955-US-Army-map-Kali-river-sources.jpg

It would be useful if you can share which part of Treaty of Sugauli claims this is the Kali River?

Its been over 24 hours with the boundary relations not have been updated consistently across levels. Have reverted the change for now osm.org/changeset/77083852
Feel free to share any evidence of on the ground change and we can make a proper update of all admin levels affecting the area.

76992071 almost 6 years ago

The tiles have still not updated to the changed data upto z12. After z13 you can see the tiles reflect the updates made in this changeset.

Like you said, the data that was present was correct as per the OSMF guidelines on representing disputed territories, there was nothing to update unless there was some change on the ground regarding the control of the territory.

76992071 almost 6 years ago

This changeset changed the Kalapani disputed territory to be within the Nepal relation from the de-facto situation of being within the India relation as per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalapani_territory

The Nepalese claim line should exist just like the Indian claim lines on parts of Kashmir controlled by Pakistan and China osm.org/relation/4610574

There has been recent media focus on this dispute which could be causing more people to look into this disputed area from both countries.

76992071 almost 6 years ago

Hi Ro Sun, given that disputed boundaries are always an emotional issue between countries, i urge you to take a look at the OSMF policy regarding mapping these in a neutral way: https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/w/images/d/d8/DisputedTerritoriesInformation.pdf

To my knowledge all sources indicate the territory is occupied by the ITBP since 1962. If you have any source of info that the area is under control of Nepal government, please document the link here, since a few more relations of subnational boundaries need updating as well.

If you are looking to create render a map that follows official Nepal maps, you might have to generate your own tile like what was done for India: osm.org/user/azaadshatru/diary/390300

Thanks for adding the corridor but NH703AA is for the road starting from Kapurthala connecting Goindwal Sahib and terminating near Taran Taran http://ddnews.gov.in/national/nh-no-703aa-punjab-named-guru-nanak-dev-ji-marg-gadkari

Making this correction to the road.
