Hello,

Please cease attempting to fix this import in Greenland. It was undiscussed and will be reverted.

Also, in the future, please make sure the import you are attempting to fix was actually discussed by the community. Your involvement has made reverting everything significantly more complex.

Best regards,

Thanks for being understanding.

I'll be honest here and say that it is a real shame that this needs to be reverted. This data probably is very valuable to have. But without a guarantee that OSM is allowed to use this data, or some systems in place to make sure that the data is imported without issues, there is just too much that can (or has) gone wrong. Take a look at the TIGER data that was imported in the US all the way back in 2007. People are still not done fixing all of that data. These things can be near impossible to fix after the fact. osm.wiki/TIGER_fixup

What I would recommend you do is go through the import process in full. Make sure the dataset is compatible with OSM, make sure the community agrees with this data being imported, and develop a more sophisticated import process that doesn't involve having to fix or conflate tens of thousands of objects after the fact.

Best regards,
Taya Snijder

I am going to ask you to pause your import immediately I'm afraid.

This is not how we do imports. Bad imports can have negative effects that can be impossible to revert and take years to fix. I am going to have to ask you to stop fiddling with the data you imported for the time being while everything can be reverted.

On OSM, imports have to follow the import guidelines as explained here: osm.wiki/Import/Guidelines

This ensures that we have permission to use the dataset that is being imported, that the community agrees with said data being imported, and that the data will be imported in a competent manner.

Hallo WillyO65,

AUB niet zomaar privégegevens van anderen publiekelijk delen.
