Hello:
Unless I'm missing something or it's a bug Using the OSM Inspector
tool. The coastline data as going to be removed, or at least a
significant amount.

There is a lot of data being flagged by users who haven't been around
in years. Sigh

Hi Andrew,
I'm not sure, but "r_coastlines" only shows up as a value for the
"created_by" tag, which is a deprecated tag for programs / scripts to
edit/import data in OSM. The PGS coastline data import doesn't seem to
be assigned to a user. So, I would say that this data will remain in
OSM, although I don't know for sure if this is true. The data itself
comes from the US NGA, so it is Public Domain. See [1] for details.
The link you're showing, isn't showing coastlines, but data from London,
ON, which has been contributed by RogueGPSer. He has (indeed) not
decided about relicensing. [2]
Regards,
Frank
