[OSM-talk] NPE waterways

I noticed that a lot of waterways have recently been added with 
source=NPE.  Were these traced, or was this an automated import?

It seems that some of the existing (surveyed) work has been either ignored 
or broken in the process.  i.e.:

An existing section of stream with a bridge over it has been ignored 
rather than the newly added waterway being connected to it:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.685369&lon=-3.9486&zoom=18&layers=B00FTF

And a stream has been moved so it is nolonger under the associated bridge:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.4982&lon=-3.52711&zoom=16&layers=0B0FTF

Also, a number of streams are now marked which have been culverted since 
the NPE maps were produced.

Maybe these should be tagged as needing a review?
