[OSM-talk-be] rise of the voetwegen, part 2

[Marc Gemis]

I'm currently processing my surveyed data around Wieze (Lebbeke). It's
amazing how many ways user Scapor mapped there with note: "Weg nr.
xxx" or "Path nr yyy". Some of those lines are just draw through
buildings.
It's data from around 2011. But I hope we (and they) learned that we
only want data that is actually there. A path that was there in 1800,
should not be on the  map when you cannot use it nowadays. Even not as
a note.

I also wonder what I should do with the paths/tracks that still exist,
but for which the name ("Weg nr. YY") cannot be verified in the field.
None of those roads have a sign with their number. At least in this
area, in many other areas there are signs with "Voetweg XX" or
similar.

regards
