Clifford,
Thanks for your suggestions.
But, one question. I never upload anything. I use only
Potlatch 2. So, if I delete a bad way, it's gone. No TIGER data
remains. So how do I verify against TIGER data? (Luckily I'm mostly
deleting parts of ways. Some streets in LA go on for miles, so few
names are lost. But a few would be.)

Hello again,
Thanks for the info on where to find the cleanup page.
Now, as I begin to work on West LA using the OSM Inspector,
I have a couple more questions.
--If a way is marked red, do I have to delete it and redraw
it altogether? (After all most of these began as TIGER data)
--If a way is marked with orange, is it enough just to
change it to a different type of road (such as primary), then save
it, then change it back and save it again? Or do I have to do
something more elaborate?
--Ditto for points
Best,
Charlotte
My experience is that you need to delete the way. Just changing it
doesn't change the underlying licensing problem. Also you can not
delete a section and then extend another bad license segment. It
just brings the original licensing problem with it. So delete and
recreate. But sure to have access to good information for the way
you are deleting. I've been verifying against TIGER data. Not
importing, just to get the way name. And since I'm working in
pretty much in my city, I know what types of streets there
are. (Primary, residential, etc.)
Good luck and have fun,
Clifford
