One thing that I only recently figured out: You can include a search for your 
OSM user ID in the Overpass query. That might help to find roads you’ve edited 
in the past so you can remove the tiger:reviewed tag.

I am using that to find all those highway=stop I mapped back when the Wiki said 
that the render/consumer could figure out which direction is was for based on 
distance to the nearest intersection. Since that time tagging practice has 
changed and a “direction=forward | backward” tag is now supposed to be on nodes 
tagged with “highway=stop | yield”.

Since Osmose is nagging me, I thought I should go back and clean up the several 
thousand instances. About 2/3rds of the way done on that task. The Overpass 
search I currently use is:

> [out:xml][timeout:25];
> (
>   node(user:"n76")["direction"!~".*"]["highway"="stop"]({{bbox}});
>   node(user:"n76")["direction"!~".*"]["highway"="give_way"]({{bbox}});
> );
> out meta;
> >;
> out meta qt;

p.s. Thanks Steve! I was not aware I could use a geocode area like California 
for my Overpass search boundary. That will come is handy!
