Unlike some of the other answers, I don't think it's at all clear what to do here. 1) Change the tag to source=nearmap: that's misattributing any parts of the way that you didn't update 2) Change the tag to source=yahoo;nearmap: tedious, but relatively accurate 3) Add source tags to the individual nodes that you moved: I often do this, but it's probably causing database bloat 4) Add source tags just to the changeset: IMHO this is insufficient, as it requires enormous effort later to retrieve changeset information and match it against ways, or vice versa. It's hard to say exactly at what point a way is no longer "sourced" from yahoo. What if hypothetically, the surface information came from yahoo, but the locations came from nearmap? It's tricky. I would love to know whether Yahoo or Nearmap actually gives a damn.
