There is no belligerence, just a bit of confusion.
It is easy to slip into misunderstanding. Perhaps such gaffes can be
chalked up to a sort of culture clash. These usually end

Bryce,
Yes, most people sign up and never hear from OSM again. So
they go about their mapping as best they can until, perhaps, they
join the Newbies list (which often has highly technical discussions
that many don't understand) or they get told they are doing something wrong.
Charlotte,
I don't disagree with:
If an organization doesn't reach out to people in a positive way,
they won't stay, and they won't do their best when mapping
But the key here is, this is different. What organization is/represents
OSM? And beyond, how can any organization say
Good discussion!
I regularly click on the History tab in a wide swath of Bay Area (my
home turf) looking for new edits, and especially, new mappers. I
virtually always make it a point to welcome new mappers in the area
with something along the lines of great job, welcome to the
community!
I make an effort to welcome new mappers when I see them, but it's
unrealistic to ensure every new mapper is onboarded this way. There needs
to be a more formal process, and I like a lot of the ideas that have been
presented.

Yes, and out west, where there are long lonely stretches of
interstate, there seem to be places where bicycle access is allowed.
I am thinking of I-40 east of Barslow, where another mapper (sorry,
don't remember who) told me that it was correct after I asked him about it.

That'd be modifier=Business, no? US:US has no lower level, unlike say,
US:TX, which has US:TX:FM* or US:OK, which would also contain
US:OK:Turnpike (Oklahoma's secondary toll highway system) or a county, like
US:CA:San_Bernardino, or a city, like US:OK:Tulsa:Tulsa...

I get that, but looking at how the tag is documented (
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Motorway), if it's not divded, it's not
a motorway. Perhaps Richard or Phil could chime in again on whether it's
time to update the wiki or update the tag.

I thought the modifier would be the type of Business route? Remember, we do
have Business Spurs and Business Loops for Interstate highways. Sometimes
both types in the same city.

Modifier would be able to handle both situations, but is there a situation
where a business loop or spur with the same number meet that would
necessitate getting to that level of specificity?
