<br>
Here is a link to a random point on a light rail system:<br>
<a href="http://osm.org/go/546Jvddtd--?m=" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://osm.org/go/546Jvddtd--?m=</a><br>
<br>
Soon after it opened I travelled on it from end to end, collecting gps<br>
data and photos of all the station signs. There are two railway<br>
lines, one in each direction, and I mapped them both carefully.<br>
<br>
Recently I discovered that someone had helpfully deleted one of the<br>
lines and tagged the other with tracks=2. I really don't think this<br>
is acceptable.<br>
<br>
I found the changeset and asked the user who did it why they destroyed<br>
my work. They replied:<br>
"The OSM wiki implies that a single way with tracks=2 is the preferred<br>
way of showing rail lines with two tracks. This was the method used<br>
most in S. Korea, I was attempting to create consistency."<br>
<br>
This is not actually true (and I double-checked the wiki, just in<br>
case). I pointed this out but the user did not acknowledge this was a<br>
mistake, or offer an apology.<br>
<br>
So, my question is, am I being unreasonable, or am I right to think<br>
this is unacceptable? How can I guard against this? I have no<br>
problem with people improving the map by improving the data, but I am<br>
starting to see a lot of deletions, incorrect tagging, and generally<br>
shoddy work appearing, especially in Korea where I have done a lot of<br>
original work. Do I have to set up some kind of watch on all of my<br>
contributions and check them if someone edits them?<br>
