Are you saying if a building gets demolished & replaced with a new one,
you wouldn't remove the original outline from OSM?
In my case, I've begun to do just that, adding a note to alert the
'Bing tracers' that something has changed. But I would eventually
remove it after Bing is updated. Only historic or notable buildings
would go into OHM.
To clarify, I'm talking about the main OSM database, not the Historic
one.
I'm unsure why you think Bing is somehow the primary arbitrator of
valid data. If it's gone in the real world delete it in OSM. OSM is a
database of *current* entities.
I think it is to stop some mapper using the 'old' bing image to 'update'
OSM - thus removing Mikes building that is actually current.
Start and end dates on the features may help .. but both features need
to be present to ensure that fellow mappers see the history.
