It would not be helpful for OSM if I redesigned the front page. While I can point out wiki front pages that "work" or "don't work" that is probably the limit of my ability.

When I looked through it looked like most of them were very localized so it wouldn't be too hard to manually check the area. I suppose stepping through each page of edits would do the same thing... ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

If you can try to give a slightly more algorithmic description of what you want to revert that would be helpful. I can't really work with "everything by user blah except the I-something but including the interchanges". I need something like "all edits made by user blah", or "by user blah in this bounding box" or "by user blah in this time range" or "except way ID so-and-so". Maybe I should revert all his edits and then you use the Potlatch undelete feature to bring back that which you want to keep?

When I was younger I drew road maps of fictional places for fun; I always liked to draw the complicated interchanges, with realistic terrain constraints as I got older. Sometimes I'd take a real map and "vandalize" it by adding a bunch of fake roads and interchanges that I felt would improve traffic or connectivity. Perhaps this is similar to what bhj867 was doing. Anyway, could someone please help me revert? I lack the coding skills to do the automated part, but can do the resulting cleanup. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
