Good suggestion. There is a good basic error checking in iD now that I try and highlight, "check for warnings when you save, here is what they look like". if we could just enhance that some it would make a big difference like you say. I would not check for missing street names though, most of the HOT mapping and Missing Maps mapping, we can not enter street name, so people if possible will be specifically entering those at a later time. so I would rather not highlight that as an error for the many who remotely map as it is not really an error, just mapped for refinement later. no tags on area (buildings), primary roads that connect to tracks etc, square check like you say and others I am not thinking about can be actual potential errors so I would like to remind folks to look at those twice. cheers blake > >> On May 17, 2016, at 06:00, hot-requ...@openstreetmap.org wrote: >> >> Send HOT mailing list submissions to >> hot@openstreetmap.org >> >> To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit >> https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot >> or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to >> hot-requ...@openstreetmap.org >> >> You can reach the person managing the list at >> hot-ow...@openstreetmap.org >> >> When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific >> than "Re: Contents of HOT digest..." >> >> >> Today's Topics: >> >> 1.
