Seems like this note would be better suited for the changeset comment
instead of the OSM Object.

I think it's better to make the simplest URL possible here.  For this case,
use "http://www.dero.com/" instead of "
http://www.dero.com/fixitmap/fixitmap.html"
Web developers change their mind about how they want their sites laid out
all the time.  Usually the domain name remains the same.

I added source_alt = survey.  I am guessing that source=osmsync:dero

Information about the source of data makes a lot more sense as a source tag
on the changeset instead of the OSM Object.

I dutifully added ref=<none> but did not understand the point.  Will

I don't think there is any precedence for using the actual value "<none>"
for a ref tag (or any other tag).  If you are trying to indicate that there
is no reference number associated with these, then just omit the ref tag.
