Great work! After some time using OSM as a user, I decided to make my first step as a contributor, hence this email and the proposal inside. Please bear in mind that this is my first attempt to contribute with a proposal and, although I have done my best reading the community conventions and best practices, I am sure I have made some mistakes on the way. Be merciful! :P To the point now. I am importing a subset of nodes from UK (those tagged with amenity:pub) for a pet project. When analysing the data I realised that some of these nodes contain a website: tag that does not contain an appropriate URL schema (http/https). Ie: www.mypub.com<http://www.mypub.com> rather than http://www.mypub.com or https://www.mypub.com This goes in contradiction with the Wiki documentation for website.<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:website> I created a proposal for a one-off, scoped, automated edit for these nodes to find the appropiate scheme for the existing URL and retag the nodes. I added the proposal to the Automated edits log. You can read it here<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_edits/rodrigodiez/Add_missing_URL_scheme_to_pub_websites_in_UK>. Just wanted to share the proposal with the UK community, gather your feedback, comments and advises on how to proceed from here One issue I can think of with pubs and websites is that they need checking to ensure they are still current. The defacto method most pubs use to communicate with customers is facebook. A more general fix of urls missing http(s)://, why only pubs?. is probably a maproulette quest. Phil (trigpoint)
