Re: [Talk-GB] Anyone in South-West London?

2020-03-23 Thread Andrew Hain
There is now a place name Stadium Village just north of Twickenham town centre 
that is unfamiliar to me (I live across the Thames). The linked Wikipedia page 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadium_Village,_Middlesex exists but reads oddly.

Further issues:

Richmond rugby ground tagged addr:city=London Borough of Hounslow
Middlesex changed to county
Fulwell bus garage tagged name=Fulwell Bus Garage (Middlesex)

There are some legitimate edits there such as shop=supermarket for Lidl 
Fulwell, payment tags for M Food To Go in Twickenham may be legitimate and 
the department store tagging was by another mapper by an editor preset.

Also changing the name tag for Eel Pie Island.

Yeah, that was the first thing I noticed. I changed that one back, and left 
comments on a couple of other changes, but when I saw the rest I gave up.

Re: [Talk-GB] 'Freemap' - partial reprieve

2020-03-23 Thread Nick Whitelegg

Hello Martin,

OK - yes, sorry. http://www.mapthepaths.org.uk/freemap

Getting some subtleties with dealing with the trailing slash, which I'll need 
to investigate. Seems to be a bit more subtle to deal with than just adding it 
as an optional character in a regex pattern.

Hi Nick,

the extra / makes that link invalid. :)

[Talk-GB] 'Freemap' - partial reprieve

2020-03-23 Thread Nick Whitelegg

Hello everyone,

Although my long-standing, albeit not-updated-in-ages Freemap site 
(www.free-map.org.uk) is closing down at the end of the month, Freemap is 
having a partial reprieve as a mode on MapThePaths.

You can access it via

http:///www.mapthepaths.org.uk/freemap

On reflection, even though I do not want the maintenance effort and expense of 
a separate server and applictation for Freemap, I still think (even though it 
looks a bit dated) the layer is useful for showing rights-of-way and permissive 
paths on an OSM-derived map with contours.

Rolling it into MapThePaths as an alternative mode (in addition to the existing 
'standard' and historic maps mode) will considerably save on the maintenance 
effort, particularly as they both have the same back-end.

Nick
