Hi,

Have you missed a tag from the way into the churchyard?

Is this a mech edit?

Association football in the UK is NOT soccer, it is football, and yes I'm sure you're going to quote the wiki at me, but it is NOT soccer in British English.

I seem to have hit a raw nerve, judging by your terse answer. I now see the hyphens. I'm so sorry for diverting you from whatever it was that you were doing and working you up into a lather.

Not sure understand the point of adding name:fr=* which is exactly the same as name=*. Surely software should just fall back to name=* tag.

Hi, Welcome to OSM,

I think you have added a part of the Way of the Roses, but it already part of the OSM data. I think you have overlaid a cycleway over the existing highways, but that is not how we add complex routes. We use relations (not exactly a beginner process). Various sections of paths, roads, etc are joined together as a route, which can then have the various tags for the route, in this case the Way of the Roses.

If you look at the cyclemap layer (layer icon on the right of of the map) you can see the full route of the Way of the Roses and lots of other cycle routes too.

I think your extra cycleway should be deleted as it duplicates the route. If you need any help with this, please reply.

I doubt the footpath name really is 'Public Footpath', that would be its designation. I suggest you remove the name and add designation=public_footpath.

If this is a a track you can leave the physical tagging as highway=track and add the legal status of a bridleway by adding designation=bridleway.

If the footpath is a public right of way, you might like to add designation=public_footpath (or public_bridleway). This doesn't change the render on the Standard map, but does get used on specialist maps.

Welcome to OSM. You might like to tag your business as tourism=guest_house and then add the qualifier guest_house=bed_and_breakfast. This will distinguish your place from just a house.

I think this a building name, not a business name. Building names should go in the addr:housename tag, not the name tag. This allows a building and a business to both have their names added.

38970092 over 9 years ago

To make businesses work you need to add the tags for the business not just the name. This would be amenity=kindergarten.

If a building is made of right angled corners, you can press Q when the building is selected in the editor and that 'squares up' the building.

highway=service, but not the descriptor service=driveway.

Be careful with the wiki, some stuff gets edited to be bonkers, but I agree with that description.

Adding surface tags to footways is really good. Foot=yes is implied on a footway. We add foot=yes to ambiguous things like a cycleway where walking is also allowed. Horse=no is not really needed.

38867148 over 9 years ago

OK, tag it as a care home then. The road to it will likely be defined in OSM as a service road.

38869259 over 9 years ago

You have tagged a service road to the petrol station as a driveway (service=driveway). This is for private driveways to houses, not an access road in a petrol station

38868732 over 9 years ago

This looks like an access road to a farm or large house. That will be a service road not a residential

38868350 over 9 years ago

Changing unclassified roads to residential roads may be right, but roads that are residential have houses beside them, not just any buildings.

38867861 over 9 years ago

The road you have added is a service road

38867840 over 9 years ago

The roads you have added look to be service roads to me (highway=service).
