Hi,
Not for the first time I'm having a run-in with a user regarding
arbitrary mapping of road classifications in Leeds. Latest changeset
comments: http://osm.org/changeset/64361310
In this particular case I'd drop a mail to the DWG at
[email protected] as they're not unfamiliar with this mapper.
Does anyone have previous experience of nipping this kind of thing in
the bud?
Lots of locals saying "no, that's wrong - X is not a Y, it is a Z, which
is how it was mapped before" is a good place to start. There are
exceptions to "A road is primary" etc. in the UK (e.g. Oxford High
Street among others), but they are fairly rare.
I don't mind manually reverting changes at some point but I'd rather
not do that just to start/prolong what might be an edit war.
Once there's a a concensus of local mappers it's not so much an edit war
as one person who doesn't agree with everyone else.
I'd also suggest a review by locals of their changes in MK too (and
sadly for me I'm probably more familiar with the centre of MK than the
centre of Leeds these days).
Best Regards,
Andy

this mapper previously)
