As this regarded a small number of places all over the US, and in most cases the corrections were straightforward from looking at the Bing photos, I think there was nothing wrong in doing this type of checkup all over the place. I looked up a couple and it was clearly the wrong usage of the mini-roundabout tag. > wonder why the street name was dropped from the way. > Ask the user who did it. I agree, names can only be decided locally. I have added in many cases new roundabouts from satellite photos, but normally not been able to assign names to them, because that can only be done locally > > Am I out of line to be annoyed when I see a change set like this one? > > [1] https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/44914222 > [2] https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Stephen214/history#map=2/44.7/-56.0 > [3] https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/437522050/history I am thankful to the user in question who seems to have done a systematic work on the many false mini-roundabouts all over the globe
