- Tostino 5y agoI feel like this is where there could be some improvements. It would be quite nice to allow a review process to be setup for some types of edits. Plenty of examples in the market to get inspiration from.
- purple_turtle 5y agoIn many areas there is zero or just one local mapper. And vandalism and malicious editing remains rare. That would be enormous effort for minimal benefit.
- Tostino 5y agoThat is fine when the scale for OSM is intentionally small. But if larger companies want to use OSM as a base for their mapping solution while contributing changes upstream, it will be helpful to have that infrastructure setup for merging in changes without issue. Edit: I am not suggesting the existing OSM community build this, if companies want to do this they will put in the effort.
