automated edits

I saw, you did some automated edits. I would like to know, which tool you used. I want to do some automated edits (German fraternities). First review the to be changed objects in overpass turbo (find them, check if change would be correct), then use the tool for this area. I do know, that automated edits are strongly discouraged. --MeastroGlanz (talk) 13:36, 24 June 2017 (UTC)

Overpass turbo, then into JOSM, is the method I usually use. Sometimes a perl script. Brycenesbitt (talk) 06:01, 2 September 2017 (UTC)

Wikiteam

Hi Bryce, you seem to help us with categorization. Interested in joining the wikiteam? --!i! This user is member of the wiki team of OSM 18:34, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

Toilet updates

Hi, sure. Let's move the toilets discussion on. I don't believe in or trust the "voting" practices here, so it's best to just discuss and make the edits. --achadwick (talk) 12:06, 7 August 2013 (UTC) (watching for the duration of this discussion, plus two weeks)

Since voting has already started, and since I want to move on to other efforts, I'd rather take out any element that threatens progress toward implementation. Tag toilets:disposal= does not need a boolean... if a toilet complex is of split type one can simply make two toilet outlines. I do object to the count addition, but only because it is so late in the process, most votes are already in, and I do not wish to start over, nor do I want to mess with engaging with wheelmap.org folks. If you feel that level of granularity is necessary then by all means bring it up as a next step. toilets:wheelchar and wheelchair have just been voted on in the last month, they should have some time to run. While the common western case of "toilets:position=seated;urinal" is a bit awkward and wordy, the intent is clear and those nodes could be converted mechanically. My JOSM preset offers three options: "squat", "seated", "seated;urinal" which covers a huge fraction of cases. I am not personally interested in toilet counts, because what matters to me is how long the line is, and how clean it is. I only occupy one stall at a time in most cases. Also because of my gender I can generally only count the facilities in half of each toilet facility, and I am unwilling to ask a person of the opposite gender to do the counting for me.

Capacity

Any objection to me adding

  • capacity:disabled={<count>|yes|no} — number of toilets specially adapted for use by disabled persons,
  • capacity:{seated|squat|urinal|*}={<count>|yes|no} — number by usage position (overlap with disabled or other types is fine if a stall is both),
  • capacity={<count>|yes|no} — ­number of toilets in total;

while retaining wheelchair={yes|no} for general wheelchair accessibility, but removing toilets:position=*? Toilet blocks in some parts of the world may have a mixture of types, and tagging using this style would avoid a semicolon value separator, which improves machine readability (a Good Thing). --achadwick (talk)

Disposal

Does this need a disposal:x=<boolean> pattern too? Not sure it does, but I'm working under an assumption it will be the same for all toilets in a block and that if not it's OK to just tag the majority type that way. --achadwick (talk)

boat_sharing - can't send you mail?

Dear Brycenesbitt, sorry to contact you here, couldn't send you a mail ... thanks for voting for my boat_sharing proposal. But: what the heck is a zipboat??? Never heard this word... what do you want to say me with that? :-) Have a nice day!!! --Nounours77 (talk) 06:48, 18 March 2014 (UTC) 

Zipboat is a play on Zipcar, a prominent car sharing operator in the USA Brycenesbitt (talk)

Water_tap discussion

Bryce, thanks for your comment on my proposal, I've posted an answer. --Kotya (talk) 21:58, 17 November 2014 (UTC)

removed: prefix

Hi, I have changed quite a bit the : removed=* tag page you created in 2013. Do you still think the new version kept it's original meaning ? In particular, when you created it did you have in mind that all "removed" feature from real life should be moved to removed: namespace, or, like I suggested now, only feature with an high chance of beeing re-added from other sources ? Comments welcome on the talk page sletuffe (talk) 14:44, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

water_point?

Hi,

what's the point of your last change on page Tag:waterway=water_point?

It is a circular refference now.

About your edit

Can you look at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Tag:amenity%3Dwaste_disposal#confusing ? I am confused what was intended meaning of your edit. Mateusz Konieczny (talk) 14:57, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

Missing file information

Hello! And thanks for your upload - but some extra info is necessary.

Sorry for bothering you about this, but it is important to know source of the uploaded files.

Are you the author of image File:AED Cabinet USA.jpg ?

Or is it copied from some other place (which one?)?

Please, add this info to the file page - something like "I took this photo" or "downloaded from -website link-" or "I took this screeshot of program XYZ".

Doing this would be already very useful.

Licensing - photos

In case that you are the author of the image: Would you agree to open licensing of this image, allowing its use by anyone (similarly to your OSM edits)?

In case where it is a photo you (except relatively rare cases) author can make it available under a specific free license.

Would you be OK with CC0 (it allows use without attribution or any other requirement)?

Or do you prefer to require attribution and some other things using CC-BY-SA-4.0?

If you are the author: Please add {{CC0-self}} to the file page to publish the image under CC0 license.

You can also use {{CC-BY-SA-4.0-self}} to publish under CC-BY-SA-4.0 license.

Once you add missing data - please remove {{Unknown|subcategory=uploader notified February 2022}} from the file page.

Licensing - other images

If it is not a photo situation gets a bit more complicated.

See Drafts/Media file license chart that may help.

note: if you took screenshot of program made by someone else, screenshot of OSM editor with aerial imagery: then licensing of that elements also matter and you are not a sole author.

note: If you downloaded image made by someone else then you are NOT the author.

Note that in cases where photo is a screenshot of some software interface: usually it is needed to handle also copyright of software itself.

Note that in cases where aerial imagery is present: also licensing of an aerial imagery matter.

Help

Feel free to ask for help if you need it - you can do it for example by asking on Talk:Wiki: new topic.

Please ask there if you are not sure what is the proper next step. Especially when you are uploading files that are not your own work or are derivative work (screenshots, composition of images, using aerial imagery etc).

If you are interested in wider discussion about handling licencing at OSM Wiki, see this thread.
