| 154410706 | Hi. I believe this could be the proper identifying house name of this property. Was your change based on a source or just a supposition? |
|
| 152569947 | Hi. I think it is fine as it is. As long as the object is correctly mapped, rendering doesn't matter (it will always struggles when multiple labels from areas and nodes overlap).
|

| 152906385 | Sorry for the slow reply. Personally, I'd say it is definitely more a "addr:housenumber", than "addr:unit". It _is_ a subdivision of the building, but principally it is a number in the ordered street sequence. I'd also use "addr:housename" over "addr:substreet". How it is rendered on an envelope is irrelevant, in my opinion. We are recording raw data which can be used in a number of ways. Unless we think that the envelope is the true expression of the nature of the address data and that's what we record — and I don't think that's the case.
All the best. |
|
| 152906385 | Why substreet and not housename? Addr:housename, "The house (or building) name that is included in the address." These are clearly names of the building, and they are included in the address.
Personally, I think we should aim to choose simple solutions (which work across countries and local contexts) over more complicated and particular ones. Thanks for surveying the entrances! |
|
| 152906385 | I think it appears as: 77 Hawk House
(But the number is not a flat number, it follows the street numbers.) Addr:interpolation on a single object is very much acceptable, and documented on the wiki, although there is no consensus. osm.wiki/Addresses#Buildings_with_multiple_house_numbers
Personally, I think it works very well and I have been using it extensively in Oxford.
Mapping individual entrances certainly provides more detail, but the result is the same: a range with dash and interpolation tag on a single object. All best. |
|
| 152906385 | The previous solution was correct. The name is used in official addresses. Moreover, the current interpolation suggests that numbers are in between, on the line, like a terrace, which is not accurate for flats. I would suggest restoring the previous tags to the overall buildings. |
|
| 152569947 | Sorry, disregard everything I said. There was indeed a duplicate, in addition to the overlap of the overall area and the sub-areas! |
|
| 152569947 | I reverted it. Now I'll try to see if it can be mapped with more precision. |
|
| 152569947 | Hi. This wasn't a duplicate. The node refers to a specific sub-element of the overall area (with boundaries that are not well defined, I presume). |
|
| 152559404 | Hi, Welcome to OSM and thanks for your edit! Just a couple of notes: - This changeset contains an edit to Pawłosiow in Poland, and edits in Oxford. If you meant to edit Pawłosiow, it is better to do it in a separate changeset, to keep it small and local.
- The 'name' should be a proper name, not a description. A lot of the names you assigned to natural and school elements in Blackbird Leys seem only descriptive (unless they are really referred to as Wood 1, etc.?).
- Careful in applying appropriate tags (a basketball hoop is not a building, etc.) and not to break multipolygons. Cheers. Enjoy mapping. Best,

| 150350351 | Hi. Could you explain your rationale for these edits to college staircases?
|
|
| 147346736 | Hi. The house numbers here are already mapped from 1 to 43 with an interpolation line, which will automatically determine the mid addresses. Further details about the addresses should be added primarily to the end nodes.
The building is mapped as a single terrace (building=terrace), with addresses as separate nodes. No address on the terrace is needed. If you wanted to replace the terrace with a more detailed number of individual terraced houses, they will need to be drawn individually, with an address on each one of them. (The programme JOSM has some automated plugins for that, if you want to look into it). It would be more detailed, but it doesn't necessarily add much more information, unless the house are of significantly different sizes or shapes. |

| 146487009 | Note: The official legal designation remains the same. |
|
| 146483774 | Hi. I've fixed the multipolygon. The issue was an overlap of segments. Only the outer perimeter should be included, not segments in the middle.
In this case, because of how it was drawn, the multipolygon was unnecessary and I have removed it, leaving a shape for the building, plus building parts. |
|
| 131933632 | Thank you. That must have been from an older changeset. Now fixed, with normal values (I opted for good).
|
|
| 144054261 | Thank you. I got the wrong boundary. Fixed now. |
|
| 143860299 | I merged this with the already existing node for the sundial. I opted for an artwork tag, instead of a monument one (which refers to large structures). Does the name refer to the whole thing, or it is just for the title of the plaque?
|
|
| 143544540 | Reverted. |
|
| 140673415 | Hi. I was just wondering if this is an information board, or perhaps a historic=memorial + memorial=plaque. Wikidata and wikipedia should be prefixed with 'subject:', since the pages are about the event and not the mapped object itself. |
|
| 133974273 | Hi. Why unnecessary? The name refers to the overall area, having three duplicates is not correct IMO. If you had issue with its construction, then it would be better to edit its outer. |
