It adds a waterway tag which is wrong in at least 2/3 of the cases and adds the fixme indicating so. Removing the fixme now and keeping the wrong waterway tag would be like shooting yourself into the second foot after having already lost the first. I see only two option here - removing the data or fixing it based on other data sources (which is tricky of course). On the other hand this could be a fairly good candidate for something like maproulette. -- Christoph Hormann http://www.imagico.de/ _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
