As have I, so I have to keep switching between schemes in Novam to check bus
stops.

To at least switch away from red I am looking for:
* naptan:verified switched to 'yes'

Other indications of better data quality that might deserve a green icon
are:
* possibly shelter=yes/no
* possibly member of some relations (but probably not all of the routes)
* any non-naptan bus stops in the vicinity

The bus map, and who knows what other clever applications in the future. I
always try to do things properly when I'm in a location to save effort
later, and because it annoys me when I find someone has mapped the things
they're interested in but left off detail I find useful.

Tom
