[HOT] Issue with new mapper invalidating my task

Julian well described what we should do. To have small sections of paths a few meter long in the fields is useless and add confusion to the map. But it is important to try to complete paths from villages and assure they connect to the highways. I understand that this is not always eaysy to trace paths. They are not as visible as roads and vegetation can obscure them in some areas.

Paths, tracks and highways in Nepal are some the the most challenging to map anywhere I've seen.  For that reason I rarely map them or mark tiles done.  In Nepal basically I just map buildings and let the rest of the mappers sort the highways out and I've done quite a bit of mapping.  I think someone has already said there are conflicts between different guidelines in the wiki and in the project instructions.

If there is some sort of highway connection between two settlements then I may just map it but otherwise I stick with buildings.

Hi,

I just noticed that an area mapped by me yesterday [1] has been invalidated by user GoUtes! [2] with the comment "some tracks not yet traced in SE corner."

I just had a second look at that area and can't follow the reasoning of "GoUtes!". Can someone please double check that task? Is that the way validation works?

My earlier comment when setting the task as "completed" was "completed; partially skewed imagery makes detection of details a difficult task; should be reinspected once newer imagery is available".

Thanks,
Carl
