Thanks. I marked it access=private based on the map at https://nj.gov/dep/parksandforests/maps/worthington-area.pdf

Do you know if the situation is the same on these three unmaintained trails, which are not on private property?

Apologies for the late followup... after seeing no action from Lyft on reverting these landuses, I did the reversions last month in the following changesets, one per borough: 129445164, 129446460, 129450557, 129451968, and 129456834. I left in place some landuses that had already been fixed by local mappers (in Staten Island, IIRC)

Hello WSfsupt, I'm doing some trail mapping and have some questions about the trails you've closed in Worthington, can I ask you here?

Thanks, J

Hi jgroth, is this old trail section legally closed (hiking prohibited), or just unmaintained and overgrown?

Thanks, do you recall where this imagery is from?

Thanks, is this signage that you surveyed or from groundlevel imagery?

HI snake21 aka SH17... what's the source for your changes in this area? I can see you're using Bing aerial imagery, but what about the access values and speed limits?

Hi Edward -- you tagged the node osm.org/node/357581770 with wikidata item Q34855962 but this park already has Q7304317 (tagged on osm.org/relation/13920588 ). Can you merge Q34855962 into Q7304317?

Thanks, Jason

Thank you for the reply skudrashou.

First I'd like to extend my appreciation to you & your team for your excellent work on the road network in New York City. Even in my own neighborhood, Lyft often maps changes before I find them. You're quite on the ball.

That said, please note these two points from the Organised Editing Guidelines: 1) Public documentation of the proposal happens first, then communication with mapping communities, and only then, if objections have been resolved, mapping. 2) Communication via Slack doesn't meet the guidelines' criteria, since a third-party registration is required to participate. (For mapping in NYC, the best place for discussion would probably be the "Talk-us-newyork" mailing list, which covers all of NY State -- there's no public forum specifically for NYC at the moment.)

As I'm sure you're aware, landuse mapping standards vary greatly across the globe, and it's a good idea to follow established local norms when they exist. In NYC we've generally avoided grouping unrelated buildings into ad-hoc landuses, instead only mapping those with distinct names and boundaries. This hasn't ever been formally documented, but was arrived at over the years as mappers found that the extreme density of buildings, and the mixed and ever-changing uses of those buildings, made landuse polygons a poor fit -- difficult to map and maintain, subject to interpretation and disagreement.

Also, these recent Lyft landuse changesets have significant quality issues: Covering streets/sidewalks/other areas that don't match the landuse, slicing through buildings and parking areas, modifying building footprints to make room for landuse polygons, incorrect tagging (eg using =retail for a healthcare complex), etc.

Will it be possible for your team to cleanly revert these changes, in particular restoring the modified building footprints? If not, I can take this on myself.

Thanks, J

Hi Alexander -- This new effort to map landuse falls under OSM's "organised editing guidelines" ( https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Organised_Editing_Guidelines ). I don't see where this initiative has been documented or discussed with local communities. Have I missed something?

Thanks, J

I've reverted this with changeset 128743390. EnumMapper, please discuss with the local community before changing one well-established accurate tag for another based on a guess. Thanks, J

Hi Mateusz, I appreciate that you've highlighted the possible ambiguity of the term "drinking fountain." I've voted no on this proposal, but I'll cease using this tag for the time being until some consensus can be reached. Thanks, Jason

There's definitely no racetrack here, so I've deleted it (changeset 128104086).

Juanicv -- you appear to have added several other raceways across the globe. It's against OSM best practice to add temporary features to the map, so if any of those other courses are in fact temporary then please remove them. Thanks, J

Hi, I see you've already figured out that this location is not the prospect park YMCA & removed this pool, thanks!

For indicating an indoor pool, I'd suggest tagging "swimming_pool=yes" on the building in question. For the YMCA building ( osm.org/way/248237259 ) this was already done last month by a different mapper.

Good luck & happy mapping, J

Hello! Can you elaborate on the source of information for this swimming pool?

yes it is... I've updated the optimistic year of completion

oh, you... 🙄🙂

Just so you don't think I'm an illiterate clod, this joint does have a second (smaller) sign that says "Expresso Pizza." 🤷 I added it as an alt_name.

I'd imagine it's just a case of the same name. This one on Court Street is very un-branded -- the current sign is just a handwritten piece of paper hanging in the window.

Howdy, is the 2nd Ave segment in osm.org/relation/9127857 an error?
