Hi All,
I'm curious to know what general consensus is when editing an existing
feature that includes a source=* tag. I am inclined to remove the tag,
but wonder what others are doing, and what is generally acceptable
practise.
For example: While editing an existing road segment with the tag
source=Geobase, I improve its geometry and add additional tags. While
source=Geobase may have been it's original source on import, it no
longer reflects the feature currently in the database. And if
source=Geobase is important to retain as metadata, it remains in the
version history for historical context.
So I have been removing the source=* tag on features I edit. (Usually).
Does this fit with community expectations?
Best regards,
Lee.
