[closed] tracktype should be used on tracks only / ID warning

-2

Hello,

non-track streets, e.g. path or secondary, with tracktype=*-Tag should be highlighted with an error in ID editor. tracktype should be used on tracks only!

Best regards Mike

(this is something best discussed somewhere like community.openstreetmap.org or similar) but, why do you think it is a problem to use "tracktype" with highway != track ?

The wiki page on tracktype specifically says “It usually applies to highway=track but is often used for non-tracks too, especially in less-developed places where many main roads are unpaved.”

This is not a question and therefore not suitable for this forum. If you want to raise an issue with the iD editor, go to https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues

@Frederik: wouldn't this repo (https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD) be more appropriate?
