Please revert this edit. Cheers Phil |
87135582 | about 5 years ago | Thank you for fixing these. If you need any help or advice I or the rest of the community are always happy to help. Cheers Phil |
87135582 | about 5 years ago | Hi John
In OSM we map school object details on the campus, rather than the building. In this case the school was already mapped and you have duplicated the name on the building. Is The Chapel no longer a place of worship? If it is now a private dwelling, then addr:housename may be more appropriate than the name tag. Has the phonebox been removed? Many red phone boxes remain long after the phone has gone and find other uses. If this is the case it is better to replace the tags with building=phonebox. Feel free to ask any questions.

87071981 | about 5 years ago | Please keep your changes to sensible areas. If you are making small changes in Europe please save and start a new changeset before you move on to the USA. Cheers Phil |
86433775 | about 5 years ago | 15 days and you have not responded so I will be reverting this edit soon. Cheers Phil |
85690417 | about 5 years ago | The existing tag designation=public_footpath indicates that this is a right of way on foot only. The complainant is correct and bicycle=yes should be removed. Cheers Phil |

86913851 | about 5 years ago | Hi, welcome to OSM and thank you for your rights of way mapping. However the references you have added are not actual names, the are references give by the local authority. The consensus is that these should be added as prow_ref and not in the name tag. It is perfectly possible that a section of path will have an actual name. More specialis renders of the OSM database will show prow_ref for example http://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html#zoom=17&lat=52.827408&lon=-2.02451 Hope this helps and if you have any questions just ask, either me or we are a helpful bunch on irc irc://irc.oftc.net/osm-gb Cheers Phil |
86910890 | about 5 years ago | Please don't do this. This is legal restriction and we need capture what the sign actually says. In the UK all height restrictions are in feet and inches, some are dual signed in metres. Only then should we add the height in metres. A height restriction to 4 decimal places is clearly ridiculous. Cheers Phil |

86782307 | about 5 years ago | OSM is primarily a database, the map as displayed on osm.org is just a demonstration. You can choose to render a map yourself, many do such as http://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html#zoom=10&lat=52.1604&lon=-4.085 If you want to see the map in a specific language you can choose https://maps.wikimedia.org/?lang=cy#9/51.9189/-4.4852 or https://maps.wikimedia.org/?lang=en#9/51.9189/-4.4852 it is much more than pre-rendered tiles. My satnav is OSMand which allows me to choose the map language. Personally I choose Welsh, brings up some interesting stuff but you could choose English. Cheers Phil |
86775440 | about 5 years ago | But you do, it is already in the map data. A mapper has already added a very big clue, designation=public_footpath which indicates that this only has public access rights on foot. Cheers Phil |
86761879 | about 5 years ago | However it is still not a public highway, hence it should be mapped as service. Cheers Phil |
86775262 | about 5 years ago | Are you sure that bikes cannot use this? Cheers Phil |
86775440 | about 5 years ago | This again is not a public road, the existing designation=public_footpath tag should be a clue that it is not a right of way for vehicles. At best this should be highway=service with appropriate access tags, motor_vehicle/bicycle/horse=private, foot=yes. Beyond Penkridge Hall it should certainly still a be track. Cheers Phil |
86761879 | about 5 years ago | Changing a track to highway=unclassified seems rather unlikely here. It does not look like a public road from aerial imagery, highway=service would be more appropriate here.

86782307 | about 5 years ago | You are right, it is a recent edit but it is following international practice, which for nationally important areas does seem to be the way we should be moving. The only caveat I would add with this format is that both name:en and name:cy need to be present to allow rendering in each language. Cheers Phil |
86782307 | about 5 years ago | Is there? Could you point me to where this is documented? My understanding is that Mapio Cymru was an independant project to encourage the addition of Welsh placenames to OSM and is not owned by OSM. Cheers Phil Although it doesn't really help as https://openstreetmap.cymru/ is more about placenames and doesn't really show National Parks. |
86782307 | about 5 years ago | Hi, I am a bit confused by this edit. In a bilingual country it makes a lot of sense to use the names as they appear on the signs as you enter. However you seem to have undone this and removed the name:en tag. Just wondering why? Cheers Phil |
