This is now a formal proposal to mechanically remove: denotation=cluster fixme=set␣better␣denotation
From 200,000+ nodes. See http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mechanical_Edits/Bryce_C_Nesbitt ---- The original mapper has commented on this proposal: *The fixmes are useless and can be deleted.* *The denotation flags still have their value. But I won't reopen the old discussion. It has been done to death back then. If people prefer to destroy other mapper's work by forcing a new meaning on existing objects with mass imports then that's the way it is.* And I disagree, since the tags can mechanically be derived from the data, and since nobody is maintaining the denotation tag. The original mapper's statement was: *NopMap: **Thu Sep 9 07:44:05 BST 2010* *From the topology analysis, I have marked every tree without further* *information that has another tree within 50m with "denotation=cluster" so* *you can tell it is not a single tree. That should be sufficient for* *distinguishing mass trees and solve the ambiguity. And it's not a* *"probably", but a simple fact.* *For a first step, this was limited to all trees in Germany, I will extend it* *in a few days when I have more time.* On Sun, Mar 1, 2015 at 3:23 AM, SomeoneElse <li...@atownsend.org.uk> wrote: > Just for a bit of background on this specific issue, for the lucky people > who missed out on it last time around, the mechanical edit that added those > values was discussed here: > > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2010-September/thread.html#4297 > > and there's some discussion (a couple of years after the event) on the > German forum here: > > http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?pid=309562 > > The discussion on the GB list lead to a revert there: > > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2010-November/010492.html > > More comment from the Netherlands: > > http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?pid=121302#p121302 > > Cheers, > > Andy _______________________________________________ Talk-de mailing list Talk-de@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-de
