<div dir="ltr">It's true that I don't edit the wiki despite reading it, but without some sort of accepted guidance (which can be changed if desired), we could have a free-for-all where people do all kinds of weird things that break routing and map display. It's especially useful for challenging edits by commercial editors (e.g. when one company decided that any service roads or tracks leading to places they delivered to should be tagged motor_vehicle=yes, thinking that "yes" meant it was physically possible to drive a motor vehicle down there, as opposed to motor vehicles being generally allowed).<div><br></div><div>Jon</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, 2 Oct 2021 at 19:03, David Woolley <<a href="mailto:forums@david-woolley.me.uk">forums@david-woolley.me.uk</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">On 02/10/2021 18:10, Jon Pennycook wrote:<br>

At least in the past, people on this list were often advised to ignore <br>
the wiki. There seemed to be a view that the people maintaining the <br>
wiki weren't the people actually mapping, and there didn't seem to be <br>
any enthusiasm among the latter to contribute to its maintenance.<br>
