Remove area=yes after polygon is tagged landuse=xxxx

Open jjiglesiasg opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Description

Normaly some area=yes polygon are created or modified for later be tagged with landuse=xxxx

if the Tag area=yes remains together with landuse=xxx the Q.A. tools and some validators mark that combination as a mapping mistake (error)

Would be nice to delete the area=yes tag automatically after using landuse=xxx tag so no error is injected in the Database

Thanks

Thanks for reporting this - I agree it's the expectation that the preset code should be already removing the extra area=yes tag.

Oh, I think what's happening here is that

  • the Preset code does remove the area=yes tag,
  • but if a user changes tags manually in the raw tag editor, that component does not remove the area=yes tag (we assume that if the user is changing the tags this way, they can just add or remove the ones that they want.)

change preset (removes area=yes)

change tags manually (keeps area=yes)

In this case it's not really a bug like I thought?
I guess we probably could remove the area=yes at some other time, like before upload.
