Block extended

Hello Amala_Babu

This message is to advise that a temporary block has been placed on your OSM account, as a number of other Mappers have contacted us with concerns about your work.

The main issues are:

    the building outlines that you have mapped do not match the outlines visible on the imagery that you are using. Even when using RapiD, you are expected to take care to ensure that the outlines are square and match each other,

    the Changeset descriptions that you have left do not explain what you have done. Please read https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Good_changeset_comments and try to improve your comments in future, and

    the mapping that you have been doing would come under the heading of Organised Editing. Could you please ask your teacher / supervisor to read https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Organised_Editing and comply with them before continuing to map?

Once you have read this note, you will again be able to log-in and continue mapping in OSM, but we ask you to please take note of these comments, to avoid any possible further action.

We would also expect you to take steps to improve the quality of the work you have already done.

If you should wish to discuss this matter further, please contact us by e-mail at data@osmfoundation.org quoting Ticket #2023012410000114.

Thank you,

Kind regards,

Graeme Fitzpatrick OSMF Data Working Group
