<div>I agree with the concerns you raised in the changeset
comment, and that the changesets are well-meaning, so let's
see if and how they respond first. There are only a handful of
changesets all from 18 days ago at this point.</div>

<p>Hi all</p>
<p>I am <i>respectfully </i>writing to hear what you
think about this changeset from a seemingly new
contributor. I definitely don't want to publicly shame
someone's well-meaning contribution, but after
commenting on the changeset, I want to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Inform others that the area they contribute to might
have been affected too</li>
<li>Know what other contributors think about the nature
of the changes, given that I have very little
experience with fixing / reverting changes that affect
such large areas.</li>
</ul>
<p>You will notice from the <a
href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Australets/history"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">changeset
history of the contibutor</a> that all their
changesets were submitted on one single day, the day
they created their OSM account, and that they affect
very distant areas around the world (which makes me
think there isn't much local knowledge involved).<br>
</p>
<p>The changeset that affects the area I am familiar with
is changeset <a
href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/103074912"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">103074912</a>.
But if you live around Geraldton (WA), you might also be
interested in this one: <a
href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/103072911"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">103072911</a>.<br>
</p>
<p>Here is the message I wrote after I noticed the changes
in my area, so you have a better idea of my concerns,
but given the size of the changeset, I haven't been able
to give it a thorough review.<br>
</p>

<p>Hi Australets! I was wondering about the motivation
between this changeset, as it changed quite a few things
in the area where I contribute. <br>
What is the idea behind merging addresses, buildings and
points of interest? I know there are different opinions
on the matter, but I can see definite drawbacks in the
merging you did, at least in some cases. For example,
some of the resulting buildings end up having a "source"
tag that used to refer to only the address, but now
seems to refer to the whole object. <br>
See for example this one: <a
href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/401769723/history"
rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/401769723/history</a>
<br>
In other cases, the main building is apartments but now
has the name of one single shop included in it: <a
href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/444096785/history"
rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/444096785/history</a>
<br>
In many cases, one single key could have a different
values for a building and a point of interest, even
though the general rule "One feature, one OSM element"
applies. (e.g. address, name, contact, source...).
Separate POIs are also helpful for shops to more
precisely show in the building where it is located. <br>
Let me know what you think!</p>
<p>---</p>
<p>Any input would be appreciated, especially tips about
the way forward!</p>
<p>Cheers<br>
