Re: [OSM-talk] last person to edit?
Hi Graham, Try using the data layer on the OpenStreetMap web site. Click the little + on the top right of the map, and then check the data layer option. You can then click on the way/node to find the information that you require, including the full history. Shaun graham wrote: > Hi, > > Sorry, I've obviously not been reading all my osm mail..

Re: [OSM-talk] last person to edit?
Thanks Shaun Simple when you know how. Odd though - I just corrected some roads someone had dragged off by a few hundred metres; the history shows me creating the roads 6 months ago and correcting them this evening, but nothing in between. Is there any kind of edit it doesn't show? Graham Shaun McDonald wrote: > Hi Graham, > > Try using the data layer on the OpenStreetMap web site.

Yes, they'd just dragged some nodes around rather randomly OK, so I'll never know who.. guess just someone trying out potlach Graham > > cu > Henry > > ___ > talk mailing list > talk@openstreetmap.org > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Mind as someone non fluent in JOSM I shall still use it to check what I have done. > >You should still be able to find out who by clicking on the nodes and >looking at their history, if you can work out which nodes it was. I can see there being no history available if a node is deleted but the way should still show a history of having been edited.

Because unless something has changed recently this isn't how potlatch works -- if you drag around nodes then potlatch still touches the way. So if the person used Potlatch you /would/ see a way edit. I just had a quick look at the code and it looks to me that it still works that way, although I'll happily be corrected if it has changed.

It's a very rudimentary transaction (though a little bit of that has been diluted with Potlatch 0.10 now the db access has been Railsified). So in this case the nodes appear to have been moved with JOSM or similar, which means the OP need not worry about the quality of the edit - as any fule kno, bad edits are only ever made with Potlatch (talk-de archives refer). cheers Richard ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
