Re: [OSM-talk] "Incorrect speed limit" anonymous notes - who is behind that?

I opened an issue about this a year ago and apparently it came up in an EWG meeting as well. But talk and issues don't write code. https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/385 Toby On Aug 16, 2014 8:10 PM, "colliar" wrote: > Am 16.08.2014 08:28, schrieb Maarten Deen: > > On

The user in question now told me he's been using the Wisepilot app: http://www.appello.com/apps/wisepilot/ and seemed totally oblivious to it being a mystery, and that it creates strange and unhelpful notes in most cases. I'm guessing Wisepilot doesn't make it very clear what happens when someone

Uhm, no, that's not it... Look at http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/57.9221/12.5033&layers=N for example. Also, at least 40-50 notes have been created on this exact location: http://www.openstreetmap.org/note/215471 That leads me to believe that that position is the "zero position" of the app us

Hi Severin, hello all Yes, ReMAPTCHA is still running as prototypes in two versions here: http://remaptcha.herokuapp.com/ and here: http://remaptcha2.herokuapp.com/ On one hand I'm not sure how high its acceptance is and on the other hand it's challenging to implement a reliable system having lim

The last discussions about this that I can remember (and find with a quick search) were OSM-talk threads: - "Hate captchas" starting March 14, https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2014-March/069320.html and the "follow-up" to it - "ReMAPTCHA Demo BETA 0.2 online! (Was: Hate captchas!!

Re: [OSM-talk] "Incorrect speed limit" anonymous notes - who is behind that?

I noticed that note was actually made by a logged in user so I tried asking where the notes were coming from and got the answer "Wrong speed limit on a speed camera" together with a "sent from my iphone with http://midpoint.se/ " and nothing else... I have no idea what midpoint is but it feels like

[OSM-talk] OSM and Captcha

Hi, Maybe this topic has been already raised, sorry if so. When editing the OSM wiki and adding links, there is a -are-you-really-a-human-being check (what makes completely sense) through Captcha. My concern is that currently Captcha requests to put a number from a picture that is actually a photo
