Are you sure that this is an actual shop and not just a work-from-home business (with nothing displayed outside)? I've never noticed it, but then I haven't walked down this bit of 5th Avenue for a while.

For the avoidance of doubt - this edit does not mean that any particular political view of "who controls what" here is correct - it merely reverts some political edits made after a warning to the situation beforehand.
The claims here (both legal and based on de-facto occupation) are very complicated, but a discussion at https://community.openstreetmap.org/ is surely the best way forward.

Hello,
Just wondered what "ruins=service" on way/1156063404 was? way/944405134 is another one.

@Oha80 Törölte a way/634493386/history oldalt. Meg tudod magyarázni, hogy miért?

145504664

@Oha80 You did delete way/634493386/history . Can you explain why?

Should way/397538519 have been methane_pumping_station (not "methan")? Is anything still there?

I suspect that some of these are settlement first; defensive second, and some (I'm thinking of some of the more extreme promontory forts) are the other way around.
It's definitely worth someone having a think about the tree of other tags associated with "historic" and especially "historic=archaeological_site", because as it stands things are a bit confusing.
https://github.com/SomeoneElseOSM/SomeoneElse-style/blob/master/style.lua#L7126-L7290 currently covers how I'm handling it, but I bet filling in more details in some cases (such as the civilization for settlements) would be really helpful.

Hello,
I'm guessing that way/1135419642 should perhaps be "designation=public_footpath"?

Hello,
By changing this from the tag that people knew about to one that they don't it means that features like this disappear off maps again (or rather - see http://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html#18/54.37823/-1.96709 - fall back to be shown as a generic archaeological site).

Obviously these sorts of things becoming more known as defended settlements (often constructed in a "look at me" kind of way). They are very definitely still "defended fortifications" as well as settlements though.

Is it really too much to ask that rendering-breaking tag changes like this are at least mentioned somewhere first? https://community.openstreetmap.org/c/general/tagging/70 or maybe https://community.openstreetmap.org/c/help-and-support/tagging/71 would be a good place to mention it; you can also contact any advertised data consumers from e.g. https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/archaeological_site#projects - if you click through to the project from there you'll be able to e.g. raise a github issue.

For the benefit of anyone else looking at this changeset, I've asked slice0 what evidence there is https://osm.mapki.com/history/way/165672226 should be secondary rather than tertiary.
I've also suggested in fairly strong terms that slice0#s attitude to the rest of the Au community needs to change (see e.g. the profile text and diary entries at @slice0/diary ).

Is the name on e.g. way/47264259/history correct? The loc_ref and name are both letters, but different.

For info I've asked about the provenance of this data at https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/odd-data-source-falkland-islands/107317 .

Hello,
Just for info, I've changed the "historic=churchyard cross" at node/9700823427 here to "historic=cross" . Searching https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/historic#values for "cross" doesn't find a better option (except maybe something like "memorial"?).
It was the only example.
Hope you don;t mind (and any other questions, please ask!)
Best Regards,
Andy
