[Talk-ca] Missing Ways

[Richard Degelder]

In looking over some areas in the Hamilton ON area I am finding a disturbing
number of missing ways recently.  Sometimes the way appears in a different
zoom level but other times no zoom level shows the way.  At times there is
now a POI, with no description or value, at a point that was part of the
way.  I have even looked for the past history of the area and cannot find
anyone to have erased the way either.

I was even looking with Potlatch and looked for their "UnDelete", "U", for
the area and nothing shows up for the way either.

Some examples are:

Here Hillyard does continue north past the intersections with the service
road and then Ship Street to beyond the POI (Point 288051968)

and

http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?lat=43.26924&lon=-79.83494&zoom=17

Here York Road appears intermitently depending on the zoom level you are
using.

I am wondering if others have noticed the same things happening in other
regions and areas.  I am unaware of the reason for these deletions and not
even certain when they occurred.
