Hello again. User Zain Ahmad Hashmi is still at it with "Improving road network" edits ,which as far as I can see are just adding maxweight tags. The couple I've checked seem legit, but the edits are wide spread implying it's not local knowledge. I'm correct in thinking there's no open

I had been meaning to express my concerns over dataOne with the list, although as I added a new changeset comment yesterday and pm'd him about one from last week which he has not responded to, I was waiting for one more edit that so far hasn't happened. My concern has been over a very large

If their edits are factually correct, they are improving OSM which is a good thing. But they should really engage more with the community so we can see where all this wisdom is coming from, what they are working towards and who is behind it. Failure to respond to the many enquiries does not

For info - I've added a comment to the discussion on https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/34799530 (a recent changeset by Zain Ahmad Hashmi) and also one to https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/34777018 (dataOne). It'd certainly be interesting to see what correlation there is between

AFAIK Kent doesn't go round putting 2m width limits on country lanes - more likely to be 6'6" "except for access". A random spot-check on his most recent changesets with Google Streetview shows indeed 6'6" "except for access" so he may actually be correct, except for the discutable correctness

Adding accurate data is, of course, improving OSM, but only if it's from an allowable source. The lack of communication implies there's something to hide. Dave F. On 22/10/2015 21:34, Colin Smale wrote: If their edits are factually correct, they are improving OSM which is a good thing. But

I'm not on irc much at the moment, sorry. In general you can ping d...@osmfoundation.org with requests for mapper blocks, supplying context. This sounds like a call for a zero-hour block, which obliges the mapper to log in and read messages before editing. I will have a look when i get off

Hi all, Just had the same thing happen near me (Croydon) but by a different user (Zain Ahmad Hashmi, e.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/34443141). The only thing that occurred to me is that all the edits involved ways passing over or under railway lines... although like Dave F I can't

Dataone is at it again. He's not replied to my post. As each edit is an individual changeset & therefore laborious to revert, I think a temporary stop should be placed on him (both?) just until their attentions are grabbed. Is there anyone on this forum able to it or should I post in the talk
