It looks like many of these dupes are being cleaned up by user Mala http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Mala/edits
Thanks Mala, as I was the cause of at least one set of those bad imports! This was an import of Arabic placenames globally, in a changeset pushed through the bulk_upload.py. bulk_upload.py seems to support modify and delete, but in my experience (obviously!) not. Can anyone confirm that bulk_upload.py does work .. and then perhaps I can determine what I've been doing wrong. I'm not the only one, as you'll see that other dup country changesets have used bulk_upload.py as well. -Mikel ________________________________ From: Stefan Baebler <stefan.baeb...@gmail.com> To: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <ava...@gmail.com> Cc: openstreetmap <talk@openstreetmap.org> Sent: Friday, July 24, 2009 5:04:25 AM Subject: Re: [OSM-talk] Duplicate place=city capital=yes and other place nodes Yes, i also encountered them.
