One other thing - if anyone sees issues with "highway" changes in Leeds, Manchester or MK that don't match their recollection please add a changeset comment with specifics - "I believe that road X is a Y not a Z based on ABC". I've commented on one of the Lancs ones already. Best Regards, Andy ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb

I've dropped DWG a note because the mapper in question has just responded and I need to hold my tongue rather than reply. Thanks for the tip.

Latest changeset comments: http://osm.org/changeset/64361310 In this particular case I'd drop a mail to the DWG at d...@osmfoundation.org as they're not unfamiliar with this mapper. Does anyone have previous experience of nipping this kind of thing in the bud? Lots of locals saying "no, that's wrong - X is not a Y, it is a Z, which is how it was mapped before" is a good place to start. There are exceptions to "A road is primary" etc. in the UK (e.g. Oxford High Street among others), but they are fairly rare. I don't mind manually reverting changes at some point but I'd rather not do that just to start/prolong what might be an edit war. Once there's a a concensus of local mappers it's not so much an edit war as one person who doesn't agree with everyone else. I'd also suggest a review by locals of their changes in MK too (and sadly for me I'm probably more familiar with the centre of MK than the centre of Leeds these days).

[Talk-GB] Mapping Roads for the Renderer
Hi, Not for the first time I'm having a run-in with a user regarding arbitrary mapping of road classifications in Leeds. Latest changeset comments: http://osm.org/changeset/64361310 Does anyone have previous experience of nipping this kind of thing in the bud? I don't mind manually reverting changes at some point but I'd rather not do that just to start/prolong what might be an edit war.
