Hi. When an abandoned railway trackbed has been repurposed as a walking/cycling path or similar, it's best to keep it as one element with two tags (e.g. highway=cycleway, railway=abandoned) rather than splitting it into two elements. This allows routers to make more informed decisions about elevation etc.

Hi - you probably didn't want to make the Braunkohlerunde relation a member of itself :)

Happily defer to you on that one! It looked paved to me from imagery and Bing StreetSide but always pleased to be proved wrong.

Hi! It's not really "my tag" - it's been in use since at least 2010, very possibly earlier, and is documented at osm.wiki/Proposed_features/Towpath . It probably needs moving to "de facto" status.

Hi! In this changeset you've added bicycle=no to the Interstate. As best I know, bikes are permitted on Interstates in Texas unless expressly signed otherwise - see https://www.bikelaw.com/2017/05/bike-riding-on-the-highway-in-texas/ . Ok if I fix this?

Hi - what's your source for the Hallaton-Horninghold path allowing bikes? This is a public footpath (or at least it was when I lived nearby!) and so bikes aren't permitted unless by explicit permission of the landowner.

Ok, changing way/23582598 to highway=tertiary is about the most preposterous edit I've ever seen in the history of OSM.

Hello Sam,

You have significantly broken the map and made it worse for routing by your widespread retagging of minor roads as 'tertiary' without any supporting evidence. Could you say how you're planning to fix this damage?

Thanks!

Hello Sam,

highway=tertiary isn't really appropriate for a single-track winding rural road. I have changed this back to highway=unclassified.

Wait what how did I make this span an ocean. Sorry.

Hi - you've changed the operator of the Moreton Co-op from Midcounties to the (Manchester) Co-op Group. Are you sure about this? Midcounties bought the Warners Budgens stores a couple of years ago and it seems vanishingly unlikely they've sold it onto the Manchester group.

Thank you!

The challenge here is that highway tags in the UK have meaning about whether or not someone has a legal right to use that road.

You have changed a bridleway (implies foot, horse and bicycle access rights) to a track (does not imply access rights). This will break foot, horse and bike routing. Please revert this change.

You have changed a bridleway (implies foot, horse and bicycle access rights) to a track (does not imply access rights). This will break foot, horse and bike routing. Please revert this change.

You have not updated bicycle access tags on this change which means you have potentially broken bike routing.

124429863

Do you have evidence that this is a public road open to motor vehicles, as your change to highway=unclassified would imply?

124459957

You have changed a road from highway=bridleway (implies bicycle, horse and foot access rights) to highway=track (does not imply any access rights). This is going to negatively affect bicycle, foot and horse routing. Please revert this change.

You have changed a road from highway=bridleway (implies bicycle, horse and foot access rights) to highway=track (does not imply any access rights). This is going to negatively affect bicycle, foot and horse routing. Please revert this change.

124467774

You have changed a road from highway=cycleway (implies bicycle access rights) to highway=service (does not necessarily imply bicycle access rights). This is going to negatively affect bicycle routing. Please revert this change.

I have now tagged this as unsigned=yes which means that I can at least filter it out from cycle.travel. But I agree with streckenkundler and Karthoo that it should be deleted entirely.
