[Talk-us] Streaming JOSM -- suggestions?

[Tod Fitch]

Please accept my apology for implying using the search for an automated edit.

I assumed the same type of work flow I am doing now: Using the results of the query to direct my attention to what I want to fix. Still need to examine the location and available information to decide, on an object by object basis, if the data in OSM meets your standards or needs further improvement before doing something like removing the tiger:reviewed tag.

Since that time tagging practice has changed and a “direction=forward | backward” tag is now supposed to be on nodes tagged with “highway=stop | yield”.

However, I would caution what has a whiff of "automated edit" here: having an OT query — even when it is all your editing — to be an all-encompassing assumption that "what you edited before is absolutely correct...because YOU did!" might be too strong of an assumption. So, please be careful.

Assuming that a bunch of edits you have done before actually WERE improving TIGER data "so good" (maybe so, maybe not) that you might also (retrospectively) remove the tiger_reviewed=no tag might be specious. It might not be specious, true, so OK, go ahead and remove the "no" tag, but don't do so in a batch. I'd recommend a re-review of those data before you remove "no" tags. Individually during a review that might go pretty quickly, but not all at once with an assumption that sounds a lot like a lark or a wish. Be careful!
