<div>Thanks all for the feedback you have provided on the tags for the shrimp pond dikes. I hope to be able to implement many of these changes soon, but I have not been successful in using the JOSM Reverter plugin. The OSM Wiki states:</div>

<div>In the past couple of years I have spent several tens of
hours digitizing the shrimp pond dikes in San Blas Municipio,
Nayarit, Mexico. They are a significant feature on the local
landscape and of importance because of the degradation they
are causing in the mangrove forest ecosystems in which they
are located.</div>

<div>I was much dismayed this past summer when all of these
features were deleted from the OSM data base (changeset
11807195), with the comment "Deleting vandalism, those are not
roads".</div>

Beside vandalism, the world (at large), is full of people telling
what not to do instead of what to do, which is obviously shorter. On
the British borderline (ways), you can read the note "admin_level
shouldn't be 4". He dared not zap them, fortunately.<br>

<div>2) Is there a way to roll back these changes (with
modifications you may suggest to the tagging scheme) so that I
don't lose all of the work I have invested? If so, could you
point me to some resources that will teach me how this can be
accomplished?</div>

As I have only reverted additions before and not deletions, I gave
it a try.<br>
No panic, those JOSM guys tell you they're reverting the set but I
knew they're only downloading the data in preparation for the real
update (and if you tell them things like that what to do is not
obvious or that they are frightening, they reply that all user
interface "bugs" are closed with a WONTFIX).<br>
Well, it lasted almost 5 min, but I've seen your data (impressive to
lose that, and indecent to zap !!!).<br>
There are conflicts (differences between the locally recovered and
present OSM data for which you must decide which is right) and there
is quite a number of ways drawn going off the map limit, possibly a
consequence of node deletion.<br>
Well, just in case you will not use JOSM but you can use a .osm
file, I saved that 1MB file and I can send it to you. Because I
love shrimps too ;-)<br>
