@HudaHfidh - I suspect that what's happening is that you were looking in an area with no other history?

Hi Mario,
I believe that the last bit of list discussion that was kicked off by the "Esperanto" changes (which this reverted) was https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2020-February/thread.html#84258 . At the time, my impression was that there wasn't much consensus.
However, some of the examples here might be easier to solve than the general problem. You mention South America, and that's a good example - only two main languages, and regional forums exist with mappers from across the region in.
If people from talk-latam and OpenStreetMap Latam (and other similar places) said "we'd like the name tag for South America to be XYZ" I doubt people from elsewhere would object.
Best Regards,
Andy

Hi EmiliusAuto,
Thanks for reverting this rubbish in the middle of the sea.
If the mapper who added it does something similar in the future I'll pick it up with a DWG hat on.
Best Regards,

Hello,
Can you explain what the source of this name is please?
It'd be really helpful to use changeset comments that explain what you are adding, and what the source was.
Best Regards,
Andy

Hello,
I've nudged way/702089279 a bit to the west to match the accurate imagery here - Esri is significantly offset,
Thanks,
Andy

The issues resolved here were:
1) A gap in the Fife_Coastal_Path (10841122), caused by separating roads.
2) A gap in the road round the edge further to the northwest
3) Golf course allegedly extended to middle of road
4) Former railway was presumably a straight line; also fixed unjoined node problem there.
See comment at changeset/115757980 , subsequent osm.org/user_blocks/5589 and other comments https://resultmaps.neis-one.org/osm-discussion-comments?uid=10965811 .

Hello,
In this changeset you've disconnected "The Links" from "Gibson Place", which has broken Fife Coastal Path relation/10841122 . This was exactly the same issue that was mentioned in changeset/113567023 , a comment to which you did not reply. You can see that and other comments at https://resultmaps.neis-one.org/osm-discussion-comments?uid=10965811 . Please do read these and understand the problems that you are causing, and reply to those comments that you have not replied to yet.
Best Regards,
Andy (from OSM's Data Working Group)

Also includes a fair bit of water downstream of Square Corner from OS OpenData StreetView, OS OpenData Local and Bing.

... and survey

I've undone the change to the island in 115707320 but left the new cafe way/1017300365 .

Hello,
Please try and use better changeset descriptions than simply "Edit City. "

Hello,
The recommendation on names is at osm.wiki/Names#Name_is_the_name_only . The "standard" map misses lots of information that other maps can show. For example, https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#?map=13.0/53.8319/-1.4205 shows how the "Leeds Country Way" runs through Barwick, and if you look a bit further east https://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html#zoom=14&lat=53.84093&lon=-1.32896 shows the bridleways west of Towton. IF you added "designation=public_bridleway" and "designation=public_footpath" tags along with prow_ref it'd show those too, like here: https://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html#zoom=18&lat=53.830389&lon=-1.38802 .

Do people really refer to relation/5441968 as "Western Sahara"? I'd have thought that that was always used to refer to the whole area relation/2559126 instead.

Andy

Is node/6537664948 really a shop=boat? It seems unlikely...

Hello,
If you're adding a definitive footpath reference number, then "prow_ref" is the tag to use. That way people will know whether it has really got a name or not, and things that display prow_ref can do so.
Also, if it's a public footpath I'd also add "designation=public_footpath" and "foot=yes".
Best Regards,
Andy

I didn't actually change the Castle Museum site relation here.

The car park that was at https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1eC9 has been changed to sixe street-side parking areas such as way/362953230 , but I'm not sure that either is correct - the western part looks like street-side parking but the eastern part around the parking aisle looks like a surface card park?

Also a bit of the water is from survey (near the road). Farmland has also been nudged to a logical edge based on Bing imagery.

Hello,
If this is a former golf course not a current one, please don't add things like way/1015849559 that make it look like a current course.
Best Regards,
Andy

> You say that the comment is "misleading" while it exactly describes the edit (all changes were about surface=u _obvious_ typo).

Your changeset comment here is actually "fix invalid tagging (surface=u) ". That does not say anything along the lines of "I inferred gravel for way x because way y, which it is connected to, is also gravel". it also does not explain the many other changes (including tag removals) here.
