[talk-ph] Help fix the road network in the Philippines with MapRoulette challenges

[Eugene Alvin Villar]

Hello Andrew,

Thank you again for providing these MapRoulette challenges. I've been going
through some of these and I do have one feedback regarding the overlapping
ways challenge which I hope can be improved on in the future. Right now, if
there are two roads that are overlapping each other, a MapRoulette task is
created for each segment that those two ways overlap. Fixing one task is
quite simple but then it results in a lot of clicking in MapRoulette to
mark the adjacent tasks as fixed as well. It would be nice if these
adjacent tasks could be merged into just one MR task showing the whole
extent of the overlap.

Regards,
Eugene
