Semantically the former makes more sense and as a plus, groups all sources under one tag: source:name specifies the source of the name tag value source:ref specifies the source of the ref tag value source:foo specifies the source of the foo tag value On Sun, Sep 27, 2015 at 7:18 PM,

My fear is that some overzealous mappers will start adding those tags to all objects in their neighborhood, just to "protect' their area and scare away newbies. Since we suppose that all data is mean to be correct and everybody makes edits to improve the map, I do not see a good reason for such a

Hi André, all, Shall we discuss an "object_warning" tag? To begin with, it will simply contain information. Editors can also choose to show it when the tagged object is about to be changed. Kind regards, Kotya On Fri, Sep 18, 2015 at 12:53 AM, André Pirard wrote:

Hi André, I agree with moltonel. But otherwise I think there is a difference between a general warning or message from one mapper to another (which in its own is an interesting idea but can lead to dialogues and discussions) and a specific technical feature that would prevent moving an
