That's a valid concern (also voiced by Apollinaris Schoell) and I had not thought about that. I have now changed the script to identify "dangling" motorway_links, and leave them untouched even if they are connected to a lesser road on the other end. I don't actually check whether there is a motorway in the vicinity, that would be too much magic. This will cause the script to ignore things like: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/10262409 (I'm loathe to try to automatically weld motorway_links to motorways, I think this is at least beyond the scope of this particular fix and something that is likely to cause trouble.) This brings down the number of proposed changes from 28k to 26k. The new list is at the same place: http://www.remote.org/frederik/tmp/us-motorway-link-downgrade/ - note that it is still based on the same data as the last one so any changes you have made in the mean time are not reflected in the list, but the automatic change will make sure not to overwrite your edits. Of the previous suggestions for San Bernadino, CA: 35105571 → service; 7079506 → residential; 7123988 → primary_link; 7137908 → secondary_link; 7139773 → primary_link; 7145681 → residential; 7149216 → primary_link; 7151635 → secondary_link only these now remain: 7123988 → primary_link; 7139773 → primary_link which I assume matches your result. I would also kindly ask Apollinaris Schoell to check whether any problems remain. (Apollinaris asked in another e-mail whether those dangling links, as they have to be fixed manually, could be made available in a list with JOSM remote control plugin links. As the inventor of the remote control plugin I really can't say no to that so here's that list: http://www.remote.org/frederik/tmp/us-dangling-motorway-links - but be advised that this is a one-time effort and the list will not magically update itself after you have gone wild fixing the bugs, so if you click on one of the edit links and see that everything is fine then someone else has fixed it already. Apologies for not being able to provide a ticketing system where you can mark the stuff that's done but I guess that'll have to wait for the grand unified OSM bug tracker.) If I go ahead with the automatic change, and I happily leave that decision to the mailing list, am I correct to assume that I should leave the "tiger:reviewed=no" tag in, because I'm not actually reviewing anything?
