I just had a look at the UK Mapping Priorities page
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UK_Mapping_Priorities
and I noticed that Darlington has gone from unmapped to awesome over
the last few months. Who wants to step up and take credit for such
immense progress on what was the "UK's highest mapping priority"?
In addition, I've recalculated some more and now we have no area
with
a score of more than 100, which is good news. Anyone fancy updating
some more of the figures so we can see if anywhere else can be
graduated off of the list?
Cheers,

It is a shame you can't easily look at the editing history to
answer your
question as to who to credit. What would be quite helpful would be
if it
were possible to exclude the large edits from the change history as
at the
moment local edits are drowned out by global changes, often of no
interest
to the UK, let alone the area being looked at. If I knew who to
poke for a
fix, I would poke them.
ito world's osm mapper
(http://www.itoworld.com/static/openstreetmap.html) should be able to
help you with that.
Thanks for the ITO plug, always welcome :)
Re Mapping Priorities generally, can I suggest that we consider moving
over to measuring by administrative areas soon which have much better
defined areas and ensure that we don't miss any part of the UK?
To support this ITO will get stats online of OS Locator coverage by
Administrative Area soon and the stats will be updated daily (holidays
have interrupted our progress on the project over the past two weeks).
Fyi coverage currently ranges from 100% coverage for the Scilly Isles
(57 roads OS Locator, all of which are now in OSM) down to
Clackmannanshire which is bottom at 6%. I am pleased to report that
the previous bottom authority of Oswestry has climbed to 17% recently.
We have 20 authorities out of about 420 with more that 90% coverage.
We have 35 with less than 20% coverage.
