re nodes tagged as `public_transport=stop_position` are not, at all, superfluous. It may appear like that in OsmAnd (which, btw, I use and recommend, too) but those nodes are functional and exist in the real world, and follows the OSM precept of `one feature, one element`. The only reason those "dots" are not visible in other stations is that they haven't been mapped yet. Besides, we never, ever should map for the "renderer." The mapping process is never complete, and the OSM platform generously allow us to store these data, even if they're considered as work in progress. As for the case of stations being stop positions by default, that is not always a safe assumption. We have (or used to? I dunno these days) LRT "express trains" that only load/unload passengers on select stations. A *completely* tagged public transport route, can make use of stops, routes, trips, schedules, etc. to develop "ideal" routes. OSM data is not just used for rendering maps, they are also usable for many other routing apps - elements of which are not always visibly apparent for other users - but the data, the building blocks are there. If you feel this case needs to be discussed more extensively, we have several community channels where this can be done: * [Chat Room](https://goo.gl/X2XeQE)
Kindly consider reverting the affected changesets. |

| 36292688 | Hi Albayano. Kindly spell out "St." as "Street", per OSM naming convention, we don't abbreviate. See here for more: osm.wiki/Editing_Standards_and_Conventions#Don.27t_use_abbreviations |

| 36040225 | Yes, many commercial imagery providers have very strict licenses. That's why I'm curious because they may have issues with the OpenStreetMap licensing. Can you tell me about your workflow? |
|
| 36040225 | Can you direct me to a link to the Terms of Use for Birdeye imagery? I'm curious about their data licensing terms. |

| 36254398 | Ideally, change set comments should describe what you just did. It helps other mappers understand your edits better. If you're looking for mapping tips, check out the wiki pages: * [PH Mapping Convetions] (osm.wiki/Philippines/Mapping_conventions)
For questions or concerns, you may reach out to other OSM-PH contributors through any of the following: * [Chat Room](https://goo.gl/X2XeQE)
We all look forward to more edits from you. Please feel free to get in touch any time. |

| 36188514 | These roads are unlikely to be residential roads. Kindly tag them as
See: highway=service |
|
| 36187755 | See: amenity=dojo |
|
| 36173678 | Please add the tag:
Welcome to OSM! |
|
| 35969802 | Please don't add the town name as suffix for the village name. To correctly identify a village as part of a town, please use the is_in tags. Please refer to tag mapping convention here: is_in=* |
|
| 36040225 | Hi there. I'm curious. Are you using GPX track logs *or* Birdseye imagery to trace features? |
|
| 35980725 | Hi there! Welcome to OpenStreetMap. Looks like you're off to a good start. Thanks for your data contribution. I can see you naming the buildings that you're tagging, but please don't forget to add an appropriate tag for its function. For example, a building with a name "XXX Restaurant" is simply another building in OpenStreetMap. You need to add the tag: amenity=restaurant so OSM, and other map rendered can identify them as such.

| 35976313 | what do you mean by "wiwosm"? |

| 35958053 | Hi JonelMagos! Welcome to OpenStreetMap. Looks like you're off to a good start. Thanks for your data contribution. The building you're tracing could be orthagonalized by pressing the "S" button while the object is selected. "S" will "square" and align the features. Right now, they look all off.
