[OSM-talk] Broken coastline

[Jochen Topf]

Hi!

For about 10 days the coastline has been broken and no updates have been going
through. This is largely due to some broken mapping in North America where
coastlines overlap and some features have been tagged both as coastline and
waterways, which doesn't make any sense at all. Please whoever has been working
on this read up on how coastlines are supposed to be tagged at
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural=coastline and fix this.

Please, everybody: If you are doing something with the coastlines, take extra
care. Coastlines are fragile, have special taggging rules unlike anything else
in OSM and if you break them in only one place, chances are coastlines updates
for the whole world will stop!

Jochen
