Hey fellow Africa mapper!
2 things: Please don't convert unclassified through roads to "track", that makes them non-routable for most downstream apps.
If the road doesn't connect with any others then it's fine to convert to track.
Second, don't put a layer -1 on an entire stretch of road unless it's in a tunnel. Even though id urges you to do it, it fixes intersection errors by introducing a new error.
Questions gladly answered - happy mapping!

That station position was from previous alignment of the railway which was VERY incorrect. I moved it to the correct location and renamed accordingly.

Merci d'avoir nommé des villages!
Toutefois... S'il vous plait ne pas épeler les noms de lieux en majuscules. Merci

FYI - Chipmunk is the next creek crossing north of Alma Creek. BCR had a siding and spur - the most northerly revenue on the branch came from here. Although track was laid north of there, there was no true revenue traffic from it.

Hey there! Love your West African mapping!
- Just so you know, some of the place names you're creating are actually going into the "population" field instead of the "name" field. I've done it myself - no biggie. Just thought you might like to know!
Cheers!

Greetings - after examination, I've concluded that I've never touched any of those three ways in any changeset that I've submitted.
I was going to see what I could do to remedy your issue, but based on your activity in OSM, you appear to be a thoroughly unpleasant individual and have no actual interest in remediation. Good luck with that.
Just so you're aware, you're going after a globe-spanning group of GIS pros and hobbyists who are obsessed with accurate mapping. If you ever get tired of the back-and-forth, drop me a line via my profile page: (@Greg_Rose)

WHAT goes across private property? This changeset you've put into discussion mode touched/added many different roads and trails. Please identify the way id number(s) you're referring to... or at the VERY least, please give decimal coordinates of the spot in question. The more decimal places the better - five minimum (i.e. 45.57419 N, 122.56975 W).
Thanks...

Hi - Will you be continuing to edit in the north of Mali? I want to make sure we don't have any more conflicting edits. I am working on Lere commune, moving east while adding place names, res landuse and improving roads. Thanks!

@Yann_Dindé
Hello Yann - Changes to the map vary for every site using OpenStreetMap data. Each site chooses how often to refresh that data, so you would have to ask the site or service you are seeing OpenStreetMap data on.
Hopefully that helps - if you have further questions, try asking on the OSM Forum: https://help.openstreetmap.org/

Go ahead and make the changes needed - my Polski is not very good, and I trust that either of you will re-tag the road in question to fit reality.
Daj mi znać, jeśli to nie ma sensu, & spróbuję po polsku

Thx for the reply - I honestly am learning new stuff all the time so thought maybe there was a usecase that I didn't know about!
The 'track' highways are assumed to allow motor vehicles but don't HAVE to: it can still be a 'track' but not allow cars. Any highway classification above that (residential>unclassified>tertiary>etc) REQUIRES that motor vehicles are allowed, otherwise it is retagged as a 'pedestrian_street'.
And then service roads crash the party and everyone goes home. (i.e., I am still not 100% on correct service road usage/tagging). *frustratedsigh*

Hi Clay - Was wondering why you're doing this? I understood it was agreed that the railroad name/operator should be prefixed on N American railroad mains - especially with all of the UP/BNSF and CSX/NS parallel lines with identical subdivision names. Would love to know the reasoning behind your changes. Thx

btw, Context is that I was removing these tags but then noticed it was you that had added them, so I'm leaving them alone now.

Heya Jake - FYI all 'major' roads + residential & unclassified 'minor' roads are by default "motor_vehicle=yes". Is there a use case I don't know about where this tag is helpful to a datauser downstream?

Hey there - If you're going to plop down large polys of natural wood, please add as a relation, and mark the waterbodies and other non-wood areas as inner members! I can show you how to do this if you don't know how! Cheers! - Greg

@Warin No doubt. The portions of the line where rails are still extant has been tagged 'railway=disused'. As the rail trail is created from the old right-of-way the tagging should be changed accordingly.

ALE, mimo że jest ogrodzony, Geoportal wskazuje, że jest to nadal droga publiczna - ale z prywatnym dojazdem - tak?

Thanks - Pierwotnie nie widziałem bramy od strony północnej.

Hi there - a few things:
1) Please try to keep your edits confined to one continent (preferably, one COUNTRY). A global-spanning edit like this (BC and Romania) clutters up change history for every area between the 2 furthest points
2) I have many questions about Hustler's University - the main one being, "WTH is this?" Is it real? You need to find the correct tags that actually describe what this is. Right now I want to delete it because it looks bogus - especially since "Hustler" isn't even spelled correctly. Can you fix this?
3) The warnings that iD presents to you when you submit a changeset aren't just fun fluff - they indicate that a feature that you edited has an ISSUE that must be resolved. While you didn't necessarily cause these 10 issues below, you would have gained favor if you tried to resolve them or at least had asked for help in resolving.
almost_junction:highway-highway 1
crossing_ways:building-building 1
crossing_ways:building-highway 2
crossing_ways:highway-highway 3
disconnected_way:highway 3

Thanks - questions gladly answered if you have any!
-Greg

Thank you! So refreshing to get PRAISE in a changeset comment! :D
I of course had to fix some things when I went to look at this... I'm always a better mapper now than I was 12 months ago.
