Hello
Describing a garage forecourt as a pedestrian highway is a little odd is it not?
There was nothing wron with the existing highway=service area=yes.

This is a PROW crossing, not a road.
I have restored it to the map.

166661981

There are no curent path orders for Whitchurch Rural.
This edit has removed a valid Restricted Byway. I am reverting these edits.
The crossing is clearly not intended for vehicles so will update from track to bridleway.

Still no response so reverted.
The level 6 authorities had been restored earlier.

Merely asking the source of these edits.

Google Maps, as you have linked above is absolutely not allowed as a source in OSM.
These edits will need to be reverted.

https://www.canadapost-postescanada.ca/cpc/en/support/kb/company-policies/terms-conditions/legal-terms-of-use-and-conditions says effectively that the site is for personal use so therefore does not include adding to OSM which is licensed to be used for any purpose.

Openstreetmap can only use opendat, or data we have specific permission to use.

The obvious gold standard is 'I went there and I saw it'. Just because something is on a website intended for personal use does not make it opendata.

"brand=Costcutter + amenity=post_office?"
Yes if you are mapping them as a single node. More correctly the shop should be mapped as an area with a post office node inside it.

"standalone counters"
The counter are separate. You do not wait to pay for a few beers behind someone collecting their pension.
The post office counter will have the expected security and away from the busy part of the shop to provide privacy.

https://www.anpost.com/Terms-of-Use particularly paragraph 3.

Did you obtain permission to reproduce that information as otherwise you are in breach of the terms of use for the website.

Hi
Have you really fixed this?
You have removed a shop tag but given no explanation of why. Did you go to Paris and stand outside?
Alos where did you magic the check_date from?

What is the source of this post partner edit?

Hello
Welcome to OSM.

We don't use post partner in the UK, post offices within small shops are considered post offices, you can do most of what you can in a larger post office so they really should be amenity=post_office.

They are standalone counters within the shop, usually with their own opening hours. It is more usual to map them as a node within the larger shop mapped as a way.

What triggered you to change this and others?

You also changed a Chinese Restaurant into a pub, way/248378684/history/4, I assume because Rapid told you too. Such changes require a mapper to put their brain in gear and carefully review each suggested change. This often requires local knowledge and other sources.
Where a business has a common surname this is even more important.
THe proliferation of you undiscussed automated edits has made review a very difficult task for the DWG and the local community.

Although the ref tag should only be used if signed on the ground, which is very unusual.

Hi Tom
Is node/12716223148 really a kissing gate blocking the entire track? A kissing gate alongside a vehicle gate seems much more likely.
Thanks Phil

Hi Tom
I am happy to fix it. There are a few other things I can fix at the same time.

Cheers Phil

Hello
Andy asked me to use my local knowledge and look at his fix to the Leicestershire Round.
What I have spotted is that you have changed the track around the reservoir to a footway. This isn't really accurate, it can be used by service vehicles and mobility scooters. Footway implies something much narrower.
It should be restored to a track with access tags added along with a tracktype.

Hope this makes sense.
Phil
