[OSM-talk] Changes in OSM Inspector: WTFE layer gone, new Redaction layer

[Frederik Ramm]

Hi,

    OSM Inspector has a new layer that visualizes the work of the 
redaction bot:

http://tools.geofabrik.de/osmi/?view=redactionbot&lon=7.84268&lat=48.78466&zoom=5

It looks similar to the old WTFE layer which is now discontinued, but 
the layers are slightly different:

RED is for stuff deleted by the bot. You will be able to click on 
individual items and see the tags of the deleted object with a big 
WARNING saying that you must not copy that to OSM. Please heed the warning.

ORANGE is for stuff where the bot is the last editor of something; these 
things might require checking. There is no access to pre-redaction 
versions of such objects via OSMI.

YELLOW is for stuff that has been edited by the bot, but someone else 
has edited it again since, so it is likely that the yellow stuff has 
been checked/repaired already.

There is currently no way to clear the red stuff from the OSMI display 
but I'm hoping to build something later.

The new data should be available as tiles as well, if you just replace 
"wtfe" with "redactionbot" in the URL.

Bye
Frederik
