Hi, I would like to discuss our edits on the Tag:highway=pedestrian page – particularly this partial restoration of content I had removed. To me, this image depicts a wide, comfortable footway – but that's still a case for highway=footway. Unless there are other arguments than what's visible on the image (e.g. signage), I don't see it as a good example of a pedestrian road. --Tordanik 17:28, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
Re: "When Google stopped map maker? Maybe it was added not by Google employee but by someone convinced to work for corpo for free?"
I was offered a chance to be approved as a unpaid mapper for Google a while back, when I had been still adding photos and POIs to Google Maps. I believe if you are a trusted volunteer contributor you can still get access to update street names and perhaps even geometries, though I decided not to give a corporation free labor anymore. I suspect that you are right, these changes were probably copied from OpenStreetMap by a volunteer mapper who did not properly understand the copyright issues. --Jeisenbe (talk) 23:03, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
Hi Mateusz, the image was generated only by OSM data, it was a screenshot from JOSM. I had initially uploaded the image to my account on a free social network that no longer exists called gnewbook. Here you can see other similar images from the mapping event in 2011. --Ovruni (talk) 08:40, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
Hi Mateusz,
the file which I used in Mashhad OSM wiki page is produced by myself via a web page that produces a .GIF file of mapping history of a location over the time. Unfortunately this useful site doesn't works yet, but I know that we could download and use its images whenever and where ever we want.
That would be an amenity = library as stated in the proposal. If anything your opposing vote might indicate that more tagging options might be needed for self service pickup options that can be on or offsite of the library.
I would however state that 99% of the time the pickup location for books would be the library itself and pre-Covid 99% of all locations that offered drop off options still required going to the library itself to pickup and drop off books. Hence why this has been the focus for of the tagging proposal.
I respect your vote and thank you for your feedback. I just wanted to offer this perspective and see if I’m misunderstanding or understanding your objection so that if I need to revisit this for future votes I know I’m addressing all concerns.
Thanks, JPinAR JPinAR (talk) 11:36, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
Thanks I will consider a follow-up pickup location tag especially since now pickup via kiosk has become a thing. Thank you for the constructive feedback and community contribution. JPinAR (talk) 13:03, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
Hi, this is sort of tangential to the discussions we're having over in Talk:Wiki, so I'm splitting this off here for convenience. It sounds like you're building an interesting tool in Python. I'm surprised that you're finding it necessary to scrape user-facing pages, even from Python. If something about this wiki led you to that approach, versus something more structured, please let the administrators know so we can look into improvements. In general, scraping should be a last resort, so that in the future we don't end up constrained by what's essentially tagging writing for the renderer scraper.
I was just going back and double-checking one of my suggestions to make sure I wasn't misleading you. The following code is a port of the compound key description stuff in Module:Tag – everything but the language name fallback. It requires the Requests package, but there's also a built-in json module if you need to work with a different HTTP client library. I wouldn't be surprised if this runs faster than scraping the 404 page using something like BeautifulSoup.
#!/usr/bin/env python3
from itertools import product
import requests
key_parts = "construction:turn:lanes:both_ways".split(":")
# Enumerate all possible slices of the key, putting longer slices before their subslices.
key_part_range = range(len(key_parts))
key_part_slices = [key_parts[s:e] for s, e in product(key_part_range, reversed(key_part_range)) if e > s]
# Convert the slices into article titles.
titles = ["Key:{0}".format(":".join(s)) for s in key_part_slices]
# Query Wikibase for the data items' descriptions.
params = {
"action": "wbgetentities",
"format": "json",
"sites": "wiki",
"titles": "|".join(titles),
# The OSM key name is always stored as the English label.
# It needs to be part of the response so we can associate keys with their descriptions.
"props": "labels|descriptions",
"languages": "en",
}
request = requests.get("https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/api.php", params=params)
response = request.json()
# Annotate the key parts with their descriptions.
remaining_key_parts = key_parts
items = []
for qid, entity in response["entities"].items():
# Omit missing data items.
if type(qid) != str or "missing" in entity:
continue
label = entity["labels"].get("en") and entity["labels"]["en"]["value"]
description = entity["descriptions"].get("en") and entity["descriptions"]["en"]["value"]
key_part_slice = label.split(":")
# TODO: Actually search remaining_key_parts for a common slice.
if description and key_part_slice == remaining_key_parts[0:len(key_part_slice)]:
del remaining_key_parts[0:len(key_part_slice)]
items.append((qid, label, description))
# Output the list of key parts.
for item in items:
print("* {1}: {2} ({0})".format(*item))
Output:
* construction: Used together with the higher-level tags like highway/building=construction to describe the type of feature which is currently under construction. (Q172) * turn:lanes: A diagram of the turn lane indications on a one-way road. Each lane is represented by a direction such as left, through, or right, and the lanes are separated by vertical bars. Use key:turn:lanes:forward and key:turn:lanes:backward on a two-way road. (Q796)
The code is a bit dense, but it comes pretty close to the original Lua veresion, so let me know if you have any questions about how it works. Hope this helps.

I guess the infobox needs classes/IDs/microformats too. It'll be interesting to see how this feature turns out. iD took a very different approach by hitting the MediaWiki API for data items and displaying that information inline. However, it doesn't have any compound key logic, because arbitrary combinations of key parts tend not to have dedicated fields anyways. Maybe that would change if it ever gains lane-editing functionality like StreetComplete has. – Minh Nguyễn 💬 07:54, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
Hey, could you use a separate bot account for mass edits such as special:diff/2367957?
I think it would be better if such edits wouldn't spam Special:RecentChanges (which by default uses the hidebots=1 filter).
--Push-f (talk) 16:48, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
?hidebots=1
. I am not sure why that is the case, I guess it's because you don't set the bot flag for the individual edits? --Push-f (talk) 20:15, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi Mateusz, i cannot understand the change https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Bicycle_parking&diff=2387687&oldid=2422493 where you also remove the saddle_holder. The comment for the change does not explain it. Can you please explain why it got removed? --Strubbl (talk) 10:32, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
[1], [2] Po czym poznać, że to nie OSM Carto? Ty zajmowałeś się OSM Carto kiedyś, to pewnie lepiej wiesz, bo dla mnie to są bardzo stare screeny, a 15 lat temu OSM Carto też wyglądało inaczej. Jeśli to nie OSM Carto to zostaje Osmarender. Pytam, bo może skategoryzowałem błędnie inne stare screeny. maro21 18:38, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
In[3] you removed my warning against different and unknown uses of access=permit and ask "Are you aware of anything indicating that access=permit has serious use in a different meaning?" . I think I do. I see many people put this like motor_vehicle=permit tag on many forest roads, that are signposted "Only for motor vehicles of National forest authority" or "Only with permission from National forest authority". I really doubt the authority will grant permission to random tourists wanting to park their campervan on top of a hill. I tried to contact the mappers on how they meant it, but they never reply, they often seem to be ocassional drive-by changes from people with few changesets. So as the tag hasn't been approved yet, nobody knows how people use it and what it means for them. I just do not want people slap access=permit on any road with a sign having "permit" in its text, without understanding the implication. We do not need another access=permissive which is a really unfortunatelly chosen word that 50% people use wrongly thinking it means "needs permit" (and one that is not granted "regularly", thus basically it is "private"). I don't know if it is caused by bad translations in editors, or why that is. So let's not create the same situation here. Aceman444 (talk) 11:09, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
If you don't mind, I'll be replacing/substituting files that were removed from userbox templates and other non-article pages on the OpenStreetMap Wiki (example: replacing this file with this file in the User iPhone template). -Ianlopez1115 (talk) 12:53, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
Cześć. Ten sklep https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/9094657625/history przeniósł się tu: https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/9899103667? Może można by przenieść tagi z tamtego starego?

I don't even know how to use this page, so, my apologies in advance.
Initially, my objective was to follow the whole Proposal process, and we, in fact, discussed the issue in the Discussion page of the proposal as well as in the old forums. Realistically, I wouldn't expect much more feedback, but I still think I can defend my proposal against anything they throw. Right now, I think it's already a de facto keytag used from Washington State to Guatemala City, and I could anticipate it to grow even more into Central America, maybe even South America, Canada and Europe. The thing is, after the old forums went cold, the Mexican community of OSM didn't show up in the new discussion space (Discourse?). Don't blame them, I contribute to OSM frequently but not constantly. The proposal is almost finished, at least the main part. The main_ingredient key, I think it's useful but maybe too long. I just haven't been able to make the time to finish the proposal process. So, whatever happens first, I guess.

Hi Mateusz,
Where does it say that it is required that deprecation must be discussed? on the Deprecated_features page, I can't find any information about a requirement to discuss when a page is deprecated, only a recommendation. Should I update that page to include that clause? --SherbetS (talk) 17:33, 20 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi Matheusz
This part, "StreetComplete has support for splitting roads (for example, if surface changes road can be split in two), marking shops as vacant, tagging new POI that replaced shop, deleting no longer existing point POIs (unless they are part of way or relation)..." is not related to OSM notes. It can be considered as advertisement for this app.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Notes/Applications_using_notes
Currently, this application has the most text in the apps list for OSM notes, but the focus of this app is not around OSM notes; in fact, I consider notes as a secondary option. Please rewrite the whole description to be more concise, emphasizing only the part about notes.
The other application description is very punctual because SCEE performs the same thing around OSM notes.
Other applications, like OSMAND, have many options, but that list only explains the notes part. The same is true for Result maps.
Lastly, a link to the application wiki page is available in the first column, where the complete description will be. At this moment, only a small paragraph explains the SC OSM notes.

Thanks for your double check. What is your opinion: How many objects (with wrong element type) must be present so that adding such a box would be OK? --MalgiK (talk) 08:02, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
If one person needs food and another person needs food, and a third person doesn't need food, that means there is a need for food.
I would like you to agree that the above statement is true. maro21 22:08, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
Hi Mateusz,
I would like to change my username to Samaila. I wonder if it is possible to do this.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Why this "vandalism"? It would really help to put a *reason* in the changelog message! Jengelh (talk) 18:21, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
