I'd also recommend adding the page to your watchlist. Unfortunately, the wiki has no moderation, so edit wars are really possible. On May 30, 2014 1:48 PM, "SomeoneElse" wrote: > Nelson A. de Oliveira wrote: > >> (Please, don't make a voodoo doll of me because I am bringing this >> discussion ba

Re: [Tagging] highway=track access

Well highway=byway is a very UK specific thing so global renders and routing won't pick it up. Its also not a legal thing in itself. The council can provide the actual status. Where are these? Also there is the suspected:designation=* tag if you're not sure. R On 30 May 2014 08:28, "Dave F." wr

Re: [Tagging] noexit=yes (again) (and again)

I had never tagged a noexit=yes, neither node=yes nor way=yes, but I find it sensible to declare it as false positive in QA tools. Agree that the tag is less meaningful on ways. Yves On 31 mai 2014 06:51:59 UTC+02:00, bulwersator wrote: >noexit=yes on ways makes absolutely no sense and mentionin
