Re: [OSM-talk] [Talk-us] How is it that a way is deleted but doesn't show up for undeletion? (horribly screwed up area in northern Pennsylvania)

[Apollinaris Schoell]

most likely the way itself isn't always deleted. if a way is reduced to a one 
node way it will be just a single dot on the map. nearly impossible to edit and 
get the history without seeing a real way and where it should be.

Maybe better to revert these whole changesets. This can be tricky if people 
have started to fix things already.

 All around here there are missing ways. I can't tell exactly what
 happened, but edits such as
 http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/3128411 and
 http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/3125973 (done at about
 the same time) seem to have majorly screwed up the area. That's bad
 enough, but if I go to edit and hit U to undelete, I can't find any of
 these ways. I guess it's possible that they were never imported in the
 first place, but...

 Here it's clearer what happened - botched dupe node deletion:

 At least we've stopped that crap, but the scars remain.

No can do - I don't have the programming skills to handle a revert,
and JOSM's changeset manager doesn't seem to be able to do it.

Yep. If I had a .osm file of the previous state I could use JOSM's
conflict resolution.

 If you have the way number you can try to get it back using the undelete

Ot the undelete feature in Potlatch. But I don't have the way number.
Can you find the way that extended from
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=41.73928lon=-79.88822zoom=15layers=B000FTF
west-southwesterly to Blooming Valley?

But let's start with an easier problem - reverting changeset 3138125.
