The history for each object, specifically the nodes, will tell you where items need to revert to. I've also copied data@ in on this email so that if the problem should escalate (hopefully is just someone not realising they were messing with the live data) it can be tracked. Cheers Andy

Just spotted a railway line with a strange kink in it here: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.56294lon=0.38386zoom=15; layer s=B000FTF I'll revert it And it wasn't just that. There were also roads moved and added, rivers, woods and admin boundaries distorted - all obvious now they're

Actually, I might not have reverted everything I spotted. There seems to be a bug in Potlatch reversion - it doesn't always seem to save the changes. It seems to work if I revert and then briefly move a node and move it back again. Presumably this is making a new version based on the reverted one.

How do you revert it? I don't see any button for that in the changeset viewer on Potlatch. And for that matter how do you view changesets usefully in Potlatch? All it seems to show me is the current view with no way to view the before and after or other indication of what the change was. -- greg

While scanning for more obvious liam123 changes, I spotted the QE2 bridge and the Dartford tunnel. The bridge and one direction of the two tunnels are tagged as A282(M) and the other tunnel as A282. All tagged highway=motorway. I don't believe they are motorway - I think from driving it that

I guess that when one sees a warning sign for 'Tanks turning' on a UK road one should tag it as 'tank=yes'! http://www.flickr.com/photos/peterito/3619361478/ The joy of extensible tagging systems. Regards, Peter ___ Talk-GB mailing list

I'd suggest hazard=tanks (plural). While we're on the subject, there's an official warning sign on the way into Portishead, Somerset that has the exclamation mark and text plate underneath which says Low flying owls. It must be the only one in the country so I must remember to fix it's

I'd suggest hazard=tanks (plural). I've not seen signs warning about tanks, but did have to give way to one at a t-junction once on the road from Wolverhampton to Cosford (as I joined it on the road from Shifnal). You could feel the road (and car) vibrating long before you knew what was causing
