well, it's no longer used as a raceway, which is the reason for going
to the disused: namespace for that tag. in theory they could become
active again, although in most cases that's very, very unlikely. i
doubt there will ever be a rendering specific to disused raceways and
i dont think we want them rendered the same way as active
raceways. disused: is there and works for this.

it's really kind of a hole in the tagging system. they were never public
roads and aren't now. they're not currently active raceways, but they
are visible artifacts. i could omit the highway tag altogether, in which
case they would not render on openstreetmap.org, which is ok with
me.

this is why i'm looking for input. i'm really pretty ok with not providing
a highway tag at all, as there isn't really a version that's right.

[Talk-us] Fwd: Re: [OHM] Fwd: moving data from OSM to OHM - what should the markers be?

2015-05-18 Thread Richard Welty
[this is a lightly revised version of something i sent over to the
OHM mailing list last night]

i didn't really get any input here, but i have made some progress in
deciding what to do about the issue with visible remnants of old
race tracks. i think that what i'm doing is consistent with the norms
for tagging in both OSM and OHM.

in OSM, i tag at least the basic, visible course as highway=track,
with start_date and end_date when known (which is usually the
case for US and Canada tracks - i have references which are pretty
comprehensive.) additionally, i set disused:highway=raceway which
the renderer for www.openstreetmap.org ignores. anyone looking
at it in JOSM or Potlatch should be able to figure out what is going
on and hopefully either ignore it or improve it.

in OHM, i give it the full treatment as if it were a current race
track, with of course start_date and end_date.

the three drag strips i provided as examples (Bee Line, Motion and
Motor City) are now tagged in this manner.

on a tangentially related note...

the first person who comes up to me at SOTM-US and asks will
get copies of _History of America's Speedways_ and the 2015
National Speedway Directory.

i will have them with me at my talk Saturday morning unless
someone asks to me before that. must be in person, no
email, text or other electronic requests will be honored.

Cliff,

Thanks!  I think the organizer is videoing the presentations, and I will
share a link with the OSM community.

Any advice from your speaking experience?  I only have seven minutes!

Re: [Talk-us] Deletion rampage by a certain user

2015-05-18 Thread Dale Puch
Can the tools filter selected items from a change set when performing
undelete?  IE. only undelete stuff from Clay?
If not is there a reasonable way to export the changeset and manually
review then re-upload as new or undeleted items?

Sorry not familiar with the details of doing an changeset restore/undelete.

 We can easily undelete things, however we'd have to make sure we
 identify the right changesets to undo, else we might re-create things
 copied from Google! It appears to me that simply undeleting all objects
 deleted in your list of changesets would have this undesirable effect.

 Also there's a slight danger of bringing stuff back that was deleted 2
 months ago and someone else has meanwhile drawn the missing bit again,
 which would lead to duplicates.

[Talk-us] Deletion rampage by a certain user

2015-05-18 Thread Clay Smalley
Hi all,

Last winter, I drove around a bunch of neighborhoods with my GPS and
manually added them into OSM. I wanted to add a few more neighborhoods
today, so I opened up OSM and went to that area, and a significant chunk of
my additions were mysteriously deleted.

I investigated a little, and it looks like Cam4rd98 [1] went to various
parts of the US and deleted a lot of ways without any explanation over the
course of 3 days [2]. In my area in particular (Katy, TX), I noticed he
specifically deleted neighborhoods mapped by me and left intact the
neighborhoods others had mapped.

(side note, this might be retaliation for me calling him out on copying
from Google Maps? I'm not sure if he knows that was me, but it might be
relevant.)

I sent him a message about it, and he hasn't responded. This is pretty
frustrating. What can I do about this?
