Thanks, that makes sense.

Hello andrebacon2,
There are a few issues here. One is that (as has already been mentioned) the source isn't licence-compatible with OSM, so it has to go for that reason. Another is that OSM is a map of real things in the real world, as osm.wiki/Verifiability makes clear. While it's possible that I might be able to go to the Pitcairn Islands and find a couple of people (among the 50 there) fluent in this language, I somehow doubt it.
Before importing data such as this into OSM it's important that you follow the guidelines set out at osm.wiki/Import/Guidelines , in particular osm.wiki/Import/Guidelines#Step_2_-_Community_Buy-in . Once you've done that, and the community is broadly supporting of your import, you're welcome to re-attempt it.
Best Regards,
Andy

For the avoidance of doubt, it's not signed as "Upper Heyford" (a previous made-up name) either.

No idea what the "man_made=standing_stone" such as node/9356645968/history are like here - are they like any of the first four stones at https://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html#18/-25.00734/135.17517 ? If so, I can detect them as one category or another.
Cheers,
Andy

ਸਤ ਸ੍ਰੀ ਅਕਾਲ,
way/1125662861 ਨੂੰ "denomination=sunni" ਵਜੋਂ ਜੋੜਿਆ ਗਿਆ ਹੈ ਪਰ "religion=shinto"? ਮੈਂ ਅੰਦਾਜ਼ਾ ਲਗਾ ਰਿਹਾ ਹਾਂ ਕਿ ਉਥੇ ਧਰਮ ਗਲਤ ਹੋ ਸਕਦਾ ਹੈ?
ਉੱਤਮ ਸਨਮਾਨ,
ਐਂਡੀ

Hello,
way/1125662861 has been added as "denomination=sunni" but "religion=shinto"? I'm guessing that the religion there might be wrong?
Best Regards,
Andy

Hello,
I've added "equestrian" to way/1108015858/history based on the Bing imagery. I can't imagine that it is anything else...
Best Regards,

Thanks - I've moved the tags over (and removed the building tag) and removed the old site relation. As you say, nothing really understood it.

See https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2022-December/066664.html for links to the background.

As osm.wiki/Proposal_process makes clear, "a vote result is never permission for large-scale re-tagging of existing objects". The use of maproulette in this way is essentially an automated edit by other means. However, as I said in the list post above, it doesn't make sense to revert back to where we were many months ago.
In future, edits such as this should be discussed, and had this one been discussed as an automated edit I'm sure that it would have been approved.

Hello,
The only two things that didn't revert cleanly were way/363539869/history which has been subsequently edits and since deleted, and the Luas Red Line relation relation/3616737 , also since edited.
Is everything OK now?
Best Regards,
Andy

> What amended objects have reduced the quality of the OSM database?

The immediate one I spotted was way/312307713 . Previously it was "leisure=pitch; sport=rugby_union". The extent of the rugby pitch was mapped by me from the Bing imagery the day before your changeset here, based on a survey earlier in the month. Even if you thought the imagery was unclear it's pretty obviously a rugby pitch - it's named after Laurence Dallaglio who's a famous alumnus and went on to much success with in English rugby (even if he allegedly, as the pub story goes, struggled to get in the first team at Ampleforth!)

https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1pqG shows that you introduced a unique tag combination in this edit.

I asked "Can you explain what you actually did?". You replied "The changeset was open for over an hour ... restricted to not cross borders, bodies of water or continents", none of which answered the question, so:

Can you explain what you actually did?

Hello,
I've never been there, but I'm guessing way/1066737782 should be "Post Office Cottage" rather than "Post ffice CottageO"?

Hello,
Just checking, way/394469304/history lost its amenity tag in this edit. Maybe it closed, or maybe it's not something else?
Best Regards,
Andy

Actually it was checking the data that got me to this changeset :)
Can you explain what you actually did?

121594280

What logic did you use to "Convert large pitches into recreation grounds"? It sounds very much like a mechanical edit that should be reverted, unless you checked each feature and made sure that it really wasn't a pitch, but was something else.

> When I draw a line along a path on the imagery

The problem is that people don't know that that is what the changeset does until they have looked at it.

That is what changeset comments are for - to help people see what a changeset does without looking in detail.

Customer foot access west from the hall to Hall Lane was checked with reception.

You have said that you used "USGS Topo maps" as your source for the change to way/1033978504 . The name "Spearhead Mountain Road" does not appear on the "USGS Topo maps" that are visible within iD. Where did you see it?

You didn't though, did you?
