[HOT] Field work this week - need help with validation on #1409

[Jo]

The trick is to find all the buildings with:

inview building nodes:-11

All buildings in view with less than 11 nodes. (To exclude round ones.
Mostly useful in Africa)

Add them to the todo list (you'll need the todo list plugin)
zoom in on the first building.
Ctrl-Shif-E to select all the connected ones (only works well if not
everything is connected, didn't try in cities yet)
use 'q' to make rectangular
use ] to mark done and jump to the next building

rinse
repeat

You could also simply press 'q' with all of them selected, but then you
can't check them individually.

If there were a lot of them, notifiy user how much work there still was
left to do. Yesterday I had a JOSM user to whom I suggested to install the
buildings-tools plugin.

Cheers,

Polyglot
