I very much doubt anyone actually looked at these when the fixmes were added and it was an automated edit that just looked for highway/water crossings without tags.

A lot of these are clearly fords on dry/intermittent creeks and I can't see the reason for not mapping these as fords instead of adding the fixme note to limit the amount of editing now required to fix these imported fixme notes, most from 2018 and 2019. Row Labels Count of @version 1 1649 2 604 3 104 4 12 5 5 6 1 7 1 13 1 As the node is adjacent to the stream, I can't see how to easily edit these where it is clear it is a bridge or predominantly a ford in an easy process. e,g, https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/6839769585 Any thoughts?
