hi there. having made a quick trip over estonia i collected some traces 
(obviously :) ).

looking at them i discovered some strange features that are a bit 
suspect. would be nice for locals to verify them.

1. http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/100339092/history

a) it is overlapping 3 times;
b) it is not connected to other ways;
c) there are no uploaded traces to confirm existence of such a feature;
d) my trace from yesterday and other uploaded traces seem to cross it in 
a straight line :)

a such this is highly suspect :)

2. http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/100350809/history

a) overlaps the other street;
b) one attached way not attached on the other end;
c) no uploaded traces that confirm its existence

also quite suspect (and i guess xybot already fixed it a bit).

3. http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/26252364/history

a) added area=yes to a non-area street;
b) added lots of other, redundant tags. and possibly some incorrect ones 
as well.

4. i'd also suggest checking other edits in that changeset. all the 
features i've looked at look like crap data or subtle vandalising :/

although it probably should be kept in mind that they might be 
accidental mistakes, there are a bit too many of them for my taste ;)

ps. i'm not subscribed to talk-ee, so you're welcome to cc me :)
