[Talk-GB] 'historic' county boundaries added to the database
Hi User smb1001 is currently adding county boundary relations with boundary=historic through out the UK: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/ASf (May take a while to run) Changeset discussion: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/61410203 From the historic wiki page "historic objects should not be mapped as it is outside of scope of OSM" Frankly I don't buy his comments. The problem is where to stop? Do we have ever iteration of every boundary change since time immemorial? Then what about buildings, roads, or coastline changes etc? The database would become unmanageable for editors (it already is if zoomed out too far). I think these edits should be revoked.

[Talk-GB] FHRS Errors was Re: Updates to 'Survey Me!' tool
I did manage to get the council to remove a long closed pub from FHRS. I have cases where both old and businesses are listed. Worried that an armchair mapper will revert an update to OSM.

It should be noted that many pharmacies appear in FHRS data, often with "Exempt" status.

Midcounties are also adopting the "new" cloverleaf Co-op logo in many places, while their Chipping Norton shop, curiously, uses the Co-operatives UK logo. There's so much overlap (particularly between Midcounties and the Co-operative Group) that they really need to be surveyed to find the operator, which I agree would be useful information. Shipston-on-Stour has two Co-ops literally three doors away from each other - one Midcounties, one Co-operative Group (ex-Somerfield).

Re: [Talk-GB] New Ghosts Set and Survey Me Auto-Location Feature
I have recently been thinking we should be tagging co-op shops with the operator tag. Until recently I had seen it as a geographical thing, ie. It is in Shropshire so it must be a mid-counties. Mid-counties use the same green branding that Central England use in Leicestershire. Recently new blue branded co-op shops have started to appear, some have changed and at least one has opened in direct competition with an existing Mid-counties.

Re: [Talk-GB] Updates to 'Survey Me!' tool
Hi Colin, Oh and another where the fhrs listing has the wrong postcode! Please add the wrong postcode using not:addr:postcode and add a note to say that the FHRS postcode disagrees e.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/391878897. The comparison tool will recognise this and will no longer list it as a postcode mismatch.

Re: [Talk-GB] Updates to 'Survey Me!' tool
Hi Colin, I know of a local business which has closed but is still listed in gregrs tool. What can I do about it? Thanks for your question. If the building is still unused, perhaps you could leave the fhrs:id tag in place and add a disused: prefix (see https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:disused:). If the building has changed use, you could tag with old:fhrs:id. The comparison tool won't currently recognise this but there is a feature request open (https://github.com/gregrs-uk/python-fhrs-osm/issues/50) and it will serve as a warning to other mappers.
