liner.

[Talk-ca] Medicine Hat, Alberta

2013-01-26 Thread leuty 
Hello Canadian Community, bonjour

While fixing connectivity errors using maproulette I found the following
location in Medicine Hat, Alberta, CA.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=50.06165lon=-110.69818zoom=16layers=M

The streets mapped by user Yorii are done in a very strange way (not
connected, messed up connection of other roads). IMHO this seems a bit
like someone was toying around with an editor or the redaction bot
messed it up (who knows). Since they don't have a source=* tag I don't
know where the info of their existence comes from.

Bing imagery in this region was taken on 2010-06-23 and the streets were
added on 2011-07-15. Consequently, it could very well be that they were
built after Bing img was taken. It is hard for me to verify this form my
armchair in Switzerland and I already contacted the user Yorii, but he
didn't respond and made his last edit a year ago.

Is there newer Imaginary available for this region? Or is anybody living
there who could go out and verify their existence?

Thanks and again: Sorry if I make false acquisitions, this is not my
intention. I just want to fix it..

yours sincerely, bien cordialement

Leuty

The same user made up entire towns in Saskatchewan snd elsewhere. As soon as 
legit editors started calling him out he quit.

Safe to say it is vandalism and can be easily removed.
