Dear all,
I'm working with some roads in Central area in Hong Kong. Des Voeux Road
Central is considered one of the most important roads in the area which I
tagged it as highway=secondary, however another editor has repeatedly changed
it to highway=service on the fact that that road is closed to motor vehicles
except buses. An edit war has appeared.
Here is the relevant changesets and ways:

My recollection from when I was there about 10 years ago was "primary",
actually - and that's what OSM had at around that time:

http://osm.mapki.com/history/way.php?id=88695241 . Unless things have
changed significantly on the ground (always possible - 10 years is a
long time in Hong Kong) I'd definitely have thought somewhere at the
higher end would make sense. I would never have thought of it as a
service road.
In case anyone's wondering "how on earth can you remember one road from
10 years ago" the HSBC building on that road is a huge landmark (in all
senses of the word).
Best Regards,
Andy
