I've now asked them for proof that the church exists, but probably a waste of time.

I chanced upon the supposed new “Ballan - Corio Motorway (M8)” this morning too. This must be a complete fabrication. It goes straight through the Brisbane Ranges NP and there would have been an outcry if such a road was even proposed, let alone completed. I fully support reverting all of the changes.

There's a small chance that they're proposed roads, but most likely they're made up. I think all 3 changesets from this user need reverting. However the names are suitable for the areas where they've been added, so someone has put some work into it. https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1082655836 Bunurong Road This cuts through a marsh, the water treatment works, and a cemetery. It parallels existing major roads which have had recent upgrades and are still being upgraded. This adds two major new roads in the east and west. https://osmcha.org/changesets/124296506/ And a road through the centre of Melbourne. I imagine the Church of Dave isn't real either https://osmcha.org/changesets/124295493 On Mon, 1 Aug 2022 at 08:56, nwastra nwastra wrote: > Hi > there is some recent mapping around southern Victoria and the greater > Melbourne area that seem to be incorrect and need reverting but I am not > familiar enough with the area to be sure. > The new roads seem fictitious but could be proposed approximate new routes > I suppose. > Could mappers more familiar with the area have a look at these edits. > > > https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/eggsbenedict/history#map=8/-37.981/146.195 > The two with road comments are of most concern. > > https://nrenner.github.io/achavi/?changeset=124295896 > https://nrenner.github.io/achavi/?changeset=124296506 > > Thanks, Nev > > > > ___ > Talk-au mailing list > Talk-au@openstreetmap.org > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au > ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
