Hi,
Here is a probably subjective issue, that has certainly already been
discussed, but I cant' find a search engine for the mailing archives.
Problem:
It's very frequent, in Belgium and certainly in many places, that a
private or farmer steals a footway because he dislikes people pass there
"clutters" the map. And even where it
does, people don't seem to mind much anyway. Check out:
https://www.mapcontrib.xyz/t/6d1770-Trage_wegen_als_Note
It shows a bunch of ways with no properties except a note="some
buurtweg here". I shared it a few times here, and nobody bothe
describe the problem. I did that once and the
day after, the track was open to the public again.

"Map what really exists" is visible in many places in the docs, and this
is indeed
Hi,
I faced the same situation here. I sent the author a kind message,
telling this fight, even if fully justified, is not to lead via OSM but
via balnam.be (for the Wallonia part).
I got no reply, but pointing to an alternative for this justified cause
is probably something that can help
Thanks to Pieter for the link https://www.openhistoricalmap.org
=> It deserves more visibility/publicity I think, so as to improve the
cleaning of the main OSM DB...
I'm contributing a lot to balnam too. I make use of it a lot, exactly to
ensure or recover missing paths.
Most of the time
Hi Stijn,
Thanks a lot for sharing this. Despite the many hours I spent reading
the doc, I never found this one... It definitely deserves attention from
mappers focused on this network.
After reading, and with the various experiences I got mapping
specifically that network, I would like to
