Hi all,
I've noticed that a few (940) traffic_calmings are mapped as
highway=traffic_calming , most of them also have the tag
traffic_calming=*, but ~ 10% did not.
The vast majority (> 212000) of the nodes tagged traffic_calming=* is not
also tagged highway=traffic_calming. I looked at the wiki and thought that
it
is simply a bit missleading as traffic_calming appears on the highway side
So I started to cleanup, found a few nodes which where highway=crossing
instead of traffic_calming, found a few nodes not (yet) connected to roads
and finally decided to do a few larger changes today.
After the last change one of the bigger changes was commented by user chilly
as an undiscussed mechanical edit, see
http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/35457641
As stated in the changeset comment I hope that the change is okay,
and I am sorry that I start this discussion now instead of asking first.
Please let me know what you think about the edit itself and whether or not
I should revert all changes related to this tag.
I asked Gerd to revert the edit simply because it was an undiscussed
mechanical edit, for which Gerd has acknowledged and apologised (thanks
Gerd). I would like to add that discussion on this list may reach a
conclusion about the tags used (if we're lucky), but that still will not
be a suitable place to discuss a mechanical edit. Gerd's link is to an
edit across much of GB, so it needs to be discussed *and* agreed with GB
mappers. I would suggest that GB mechanical edits need to be discussed
on talk-GB and / or the #osm-gb irc channel. Similar mechanical edits in
other countries or areas need to be similarly discussed and agreed in
appropriate lists and channels too.
