Someone deleted a rather large (a few square kilometers) forrest near my house. I spent some time optimizing the forrest contours last year and don't really want to recreate the whole thing. Is there a way to get back the lost data? I found someone explaining how to restore ways if you know the id but in this case I don't know it. |

The method described in this question (using Potlatch 1) should still work, but it's important to try and understand what's happened and why before doing so. There are a number of reasons why something might have been deleted, including the following:
What would be really helpful would be if you could post a link to the affected area. While (4) is very rare, it's much easier to revert a vandal's entire changeset than it is to try and do it after parts have already been partially restored. So, can you post a permalink (using the link at the bottom-right of the map (page) to the affected area? Thanks for that. I took a second look and indeed, the data was still there but the ways got split so it wasn't a closed way anymore. Had a look at a merge/split screencast (http://screencast.com/t/R6vdDWytuDcZ) and fixed the problem. Thanks!
