Hi John,
I'm guessing that the "access=private" on way/606110459/history might be a copy and paste faux pas from the other (genuinely private) ways in the allotments? According to local authority data (turn the LA PRoW layer on at https://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html#zoom=18&lat=53.383838&lon=-1.524852 ) it's definitely a public footpath, so assuming that highway=footway is correct, "access=private" probably isn't correct.

Hello,
On St Peter's Passage (way/723566599/history etc.) is the "access=private" unnecessary now, since it's now added as a PRoW? It got caught up in changeset/125817813 ; I'm guessing that what happened was that it looked private to the person who originally mapped it (perhaps because of the gate).
Best Regards,
Andy

Hello,
I'm just trying to understand the tagging on way/692395103/history . It got caught up in an "automated edit" in changeset/125817813 - I suspect that the access=private probably shouldn't be there as it's a highway=footway with designation=public_footpath, so the access=private doesn't really add anything. Or maybe another tag needs changing?
Best Regards,
Andy

Hello,
Is the path to the north of Sainsburys at way/988383309/history really a public footpath? It seems unlikely, unless it's some sort of historic route through what is now a shopping centre.
Best Regards,

Hello,
I wonder if way/907724053/history and way/907724052 might actually be partially the same here? I noticed the first of these because the tags were caught up in an "automated edit" that someone did in changeset/125817813 , but looking a bit closer, it looks a bit more complicated than just one odd tag. As well as the potentially duplicated ways, some of way/907724053 looks like it might still be wide enough for 4-wheel traffic (so the access=private might make sense there) but some not.
Best Regards,
Andy

Hello,
I wonder if way/871973291/history might have a designation tag on it by accident? The public footpath is mapped as going east and south here; a private track goes west. Maybe the designation tag got copied on here by accident?

Hello,
I'm trying to understand the tag combination on way/993439675/history . It's "access=private" on a "highway=footway" that is also "designation=public_footpath". I'm guessing that the "access=private" came by accident from the adjacent track, and doesn't need to be on this footway (it's foot=designated, and no other modes of transport have any implied access, so access=private doesn't really do anything here).

Hello, I'm just trying to understand the tagging on way/1015887915 and the adjacent ways here. Is there logic behind the "access=private" tagging on thngs that are "designation=public_footpath" and "highway=footway"? It doesn't look obviously like it's the highway tag that is wrong.

Hello and welcome to OpenStreetMap!
In this changeset you've added way/942330492 as "tourism=apartment". If it's just a regular apartment building where people live rather than a tourist place, then just "building=apartments" would be the way to go (have a look at https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/building#values and https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=apartments#values ).
If you'd like any help changing this, let me know.
Best Regards,
Andy

Oddly I didn't deliberately edit http://osm.mapki.com/history/way.php?id=766557624 or http://osm.mapki.com/history/node.php?id=469777304 here. Will revert those

node/7663463434 just looks like a field that people occasionally launch balloons from, not an airstrip at all?

61819045

Hello
node/5843698788
has a tag "foot=p" on it. I'm guessing it should be "yes" as it's on a public footpath but just wanted to check?
Best Regards,
Andy

Hello,
way/153334563 has a "foot=f" tag on it. I'm guessing that it;s there by mistake and can be removed?
Best Regards,

Hello jbb508 and welcome to OpenStreetMap!
Just to let you know, you don't need to add the name "Building" to the buildings that you add. When you draw a building, your editor labels it as a building. You can see the "building=yes" tag if you look at one of the buildings that you added, such as way/665174934/history .
Also, it helps to use words in your changeset comments not just hashtags - "#hotosm-project-5678 #EliminateMalaria #Thailand #MissingMaps #salesforce" doesn't explain what you're doing or how.

AS previously discussed, you've re-added an imaginery name:fr to part of the M1 and M18 here. I drive these roads fairly regularly and can assure you that no such name is signposted. As previously discussed in changeset/39515595 please don't add names that don't exist in the real world just to make it appear in JOSM.

The change to node/4982670096/history isn't exactly a spelling error, is it? It's changing it from one tag to another.

What's your source as "Derbs" for a short name for Derbyshire? I live there and I've never used it...

Hello,
This is a very big changeset (I spotted it in the history list near me). Can you explain what you've changed?
