Re: [OSM-talk] many images in wiki gone missing?

Wikimedia sites are not fully down. The attack has been ongoing for a few hours. My impression from what I'm seeing people write is that the interruptions are experienced most strongly by end users in Europe. Pine ( https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Pine ) On Fri, Sep 6, 2019 at 9:10 PM Micha

Re: [OSM-talk] many images in wiki gone missing?

Re: [OSM-talk] Open Location Code and Graffiti

Thanks for sharing the idea of reporting problems like graffiti using coordinates. For some reason this idea never crossed my mind until I read your email. This would have been useful for me on one occasion in particular when I was trying to describe the location of graffiti in a public park. I can

Re: [OSM-talk] [Tagging] Hunting area tagging

I think you misunderstood my purpose. I was not contacting OSM to complain about illegal signs. I was responding to the original poster and urging caution about relying on signs. At least in my jurisdiction, official databases seem to me to be more reliable than signage regarding property rights.

A problem that I've encountered more than once is a private property owner putting out what appeared to me to

With a budget of about $75 million [1], productions like this certainly have the resources to get the credits and licensing right, so there is no excuse for being sloppy.
