Hi X86355, and welcome to OpenStreetMap!

This appears to be a revert of changeset 157648697. When we revert others' mapping work, it's important to notify the original mapper via changeset comment. Otherwise, we end up with edit wars, and the reverted work may end up being reinstated.

Hi there! Happy to see a fellow Hoosier on here.

I see that a few roadways have had the cardinal directions in their names abbreviated. On OSM, we typically don't use abbreviations for this sort of thing, or else navigation apps might tell people to "turn right on East Nine Hundred Ess". Shouldn't they have kept the full spelling?

Hi, Clifford. I hadn't heard about this tag being deprecated. I had been using railway=facility for years, not for any real semantic purposes, but to discourage other mappers from using another invalid value of railway=*, in this case railway=station. A public_transport=stop_area relation should not have railway=station, especially if one of its members is already tagged that way.

In case it wasn't clear, the names that have been changed here are "E Navigation Street" and "W Navigation Street". These should remain unabbreviated.

Hi there 👋

I noticed that some streets were changed here so that the cardinal directions in the names are now abbreviated. On OSM, we generally avoid abbreviations in names (see [1]) - otherwise, text-to-speech engines wouldn't be able to distinguish between a cardinal direction and a literal letter (like "Avenue E"). Could you please return these to their unabbreviated forms?

My bad, thanks for pointing it out. Reverted here: osm.org/changeset/165441674

I only noticed this because railmap.gl was picking up on the different name, ignoring operator:wikidata. It doesn't matter to me which one, but IMO we should choose one name or the other and tag everything accordingly.

Hi there 👋

I saw that the operator was changed from "Conrail Shared Assets Operations" to "Consolidated Rail Corporation". Conrail has not existed under that name since 1999, and the remainder of its lines that weren't sold off to other companies are now part of CSAO, a joint subsidiary of NS and CSX. Shouldn't CSAO be the operator here?

Hi Whitney,

I saw that park-and-ride attributes were removed from the Fifth Ward / Denver Harbor Transit Center last year in this changeset [1], but re-added in this changeset. Houston METRO's website lists it as a park-and-ride [2], with a measly 24 uncovered spaces. It looks like this refers to the parking lot one block north of the bus station.

What is METRO's stance on this parking lot? Do they intend to have this bus station show up as a park-and-ride in their trip planner?

Sorry for the confusion. I admit that the guidelines are unclear about solitary mappers working on behalf of an organization. As someone who falls into this category more or less, I'm not obligated to follow them, but I still feel like the guidelines are intended for people like me, so I follow them in good faith. In the interest of transparency, I would recommend you follow them as well, or at the very least, share some details in your account bio about who you're working for and why.

I've started a forum discussion about the ambiguity in the guidelines here:

Thank you for the timely response.

What is the name of the organization you are working for? Please make sure that your activities are documented on the wiki: osm.wiki/Organised_Editing/Activities

Hi WhitneyS_Arcadis,

It looks like the Missouri City Park & Ride and the Maxey Road Park & Ride have both been changed to parking lots here. Are they no longer active as bus stations?

In the future, please use more descriptive changeset comments so that other mappers know what you are doing: osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

Hi gcycaas,

This is not a funicular, nor is it an incline elevator. railway=funicular is not about the underlying technology, but the fact that it shuttles people up and down steep inclines.

The ones you've changed in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Toronto, and Mexico City also appear to be various forms of cable-driven fixed-guideway transit, not funiculars. Could you please revert these to how they were tagged before?

Hi cubbe8,

It seems the network value for Route 2 was changed from US:MA to just MA, which would imply that this is a national highway of Morocco (country code MA). Was this an intentional change?

In the future, please be more descriptive with your changeset comments so other mappers understand what you mean to do. osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

Well, reverting this was less than optimal. My mistake.

I think we might need to go through and manually review all the switches on the LIRR Main Line anyway—there's been a lot of construction there lately.
