Andy, I can only assume you agree with the rest of my argument. As for this case -- this is not a mechanical edit. Per definition. I looked at each of these three features, analyzed them, and thought this is a reasonable change. You could call it a mistake (I am human), but it cannot be called mechanical.
I have contacted the original author, but haven't heard back. Judging by their site, it does look like both a marsh and a monument. You might want to classify it as something else - that's where the tag expert is needed. http://gardenseeds.swarthmore.edu/gardenseeds/2017/03/return-of-crumhenge/ On Mon, Nov 13, 2017 at 4:39 PM, Andy Townsend <[email protected]> wrote: > On 13/11/2017 21:19, Yuri Astrakhan wrote: > > > Andy, as I stated before, JOSM doesn't force you to edit in your area - it > shows you whatever data you download.
