Dear stratos008,
you have been making edits to the road network across Europe, yet frequently it is unclear what your data source is, and when people inquire, you do not answer: https://resultmaps.neis-one.org/osm-discussion-comments?uid=23873640
In some cases you have listed a source like https://www.motomag.gr/sites/default/files/styles/article_full_header_image/public/2023-04/KALAMATA-RIZOMYLOS.jpg?h=fa5964ce&itok=Wg0FDE2n which seems to be (a) copyrighted and (b) not suitable for the level of detail that you mapped.
Sometimes your mapping seems clumsy and erroneous, for example when you added a highway=construction with smoothness=good and smoothness:date=2019-08-01 in osm.org/changeset/181831276.
Please be more careful, and especially when mapping proposed or under-construction roads, always specify a source where everything that you have mapped can be seen in exactly the detail you mapped it. If you do not have such a source - do not add the data to OSM. In fact, proposed highways are not super welcome in OSM because of their lack of verifiability on the ground; it would have to be a major project that has a high likelihood of being built before it can go into OSM as proposed.
Please write answers in the changeset questions you have been asked (link above). If you cannot cite legal sources, please delete your contributions yourself.
Best regards
