Mostly for the reason which Mateusz has mentioned in his response: Keeping obsolete tagging around for years or decades adds to the burden of concepts that new community members need to learn to fully understand our data. But additionally, I would argue that removing them all at once actually results in a cleaner history than automatic removal by editors. It seems to me that performing these edits in one clearly labelled changeset fits our best practices – grouping related edits into a changeset and using meaningful changeset comments – much better than mixing them into completely unrelated changes would. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
