<html><head></head><body>I'm fine with that consensus. We confirmed with the person who reverted the previous edit that there was no specific rule being enforced. That mapper just thought it looked wrong.<br>
<br>
I have a rather free day tomorrow so I'm happy to fix the st-lawrence section between Montreal and Sorel to tag it as natural=coastline.<br>
<br>
Hopefully this should be fine for all.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
