I have been fixing waterways and water areas in the New Orleans area. I think most problems are due to a botched import. There are a number of unclosed areas, some water, some wetland. They just need to be closed which sometimes is just connecting the last two dots, sometimes it is merging two ways.

Again: this bot will be applied ONLY to ways belonging to a relation ! So the water areas are already valid. What is the problem then ?

It would be very unhelpful if the natural=water tags of these ways would be deleted. Then you have to go search in the history to see what it was. Is it natural=water or natural=wetland? It would increase the workload in fixing this.

Please, do not do this. You can flag them as defective so that someone has a look, but don't delete the tags.
The idea is not to touch defective water surfaces.


Since deleting tags from unclosed ways does not solve anything (and IMHO makes things worse), this should be done manually. It would be a perfect case to enter in maproulette <http://maproulette.org/>

Can you give me an example too ? It's WRONG to have a tag in a way AND in a relation.

For example, take this relation:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/5474652
It has:
natural=water
water=lake

and a way:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/368404998
which also has:
natural=water
water=lake

and it is WRONG. Only the relation should have these attributes. Where is the problem then ?

Thanks,

Frank
