I sent farlokko the following mail via the website on September 29th: """ Til farlokko Titill Please revert your changeset changing shop=groceries into shop=greengrocer Dags þriðjudaginn 29. september 2009 kl. 14:15 I noticed you changed a shop I surveyed: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/305004175 shop=greengrocer is not the same thing as shop=groceries. The former sells vegetables while the latter is a general groceries store. Please revert this changeset: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/2562959 And any similar changesets where you've globally mistagged previously correct data. Thanks. """ He has yet to reply or revert his changes. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
