I wonder if I'm alone in this. Not sure what a 'satisfaction' is, either.

Re: [OSM-talk] Changeset comments
By the way, is there any way to enumerate all the changesets discussions in which a given user has commented ? There is of course http://resultmaps.neis-one.org/osm-discussions but it doesn't cover that use case. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

It would make sense if everybody could understand english which is not the case, except if we want only english speaking OSM contributors. 2013/10/5 Martin Koppenhoefer dieterdre...@gmail.com Am 05/ott/2013 um 09:47 schrieb sabas88 saba...@gmail.com: when editing outside my country, I try to give changeset comments in english to let other mappers understand what I did in their area. wouldn't it make sense to use English also when editing inside your own country?

Taken another way, when on holiday in another country where I don't know the language well enough to be able to talk/write it, I'll write in English a language that I do know.

E.g. I would not add the street, if it is obvious where I did edit. This does not count for big areas.

This does not count for big areas. I try not to bother putting in the placename or the thing I modified. Both of those things they can figure out from using the changeset browser. Instead, I try to say why I made the change. -- --my blog is athttp://blog.russnelson.com Crynwr supports open source software 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315-600-8815 Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | Sheepdog ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Conversely, I do try to include the place name if it is new or a likely destination; if Google sniffs the OSM changeset list, it might come up in a search even before the web site is indexed. Even if Google isn't allowed to see changesets, it often simplifies others' history review. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
