OpenStreetMap
I've spent a considerable amount of time modifying the roads on the Emory University campus to try to reflect the reality on the ground. Emory likes to move the roads around so the old map no longer reflected the changes put in place over the last couple of years.
Most of my work has centered on Eagle Row (formerly Fraternity Row), Dickey Drive, Asbury Circle, and the other paths and roads around the main quadrangle.
Emory also likes to rename streets. A number of the TIGER imports showed street names that are one or two street names old. I've modified these streets with the old_name attribute suggested in the wiki.
Finally, I noticed that the wiki says not to abbreviate names (osm.wiki/Key:old_name#Abbreviation_.28don.27t_do_it.29) so I started the process of fully spelling out the names of streets.
I'm fairly new at OSM and I'm looking for critiques. Let me know if I need to do anything differently.

Your comments all sound good to me, keep up the work. Must be hard with names changing so much.

It does make it interesting. We have alum that come back and can't find their way around. The moving of roads and changing of access to roads really doesn't help the situation since people tend to expect roads to stay put and buildings to get demolished and replaced.
But at least it keeps it interesting... :-D
Thanks for reviewing things for me...
