[Finland] Reviewing osmlint-osmium and osmlint data issues about mapping HOT 5 OPEN

Hello,

Please answer (on this issue and every other country issue) the same questions that were asked at #387 , and make sure that a local mailing list also sees those answers.

Simply posting the same link without explanation for every country is not good enough.

Hi, @SomeoneElseOSM!
Our project documentation (wiki page and ticket) have an actual information. On our wiki page there're links on the pages with more detailed info about project, which contains categories and examples, and also page about how we deal with feedback. We seem through maining lists every day and promptly answers all the questions.
Here is the links on wiki pages (located on the main wiki page):

How Mapbox Data RAVE team work on receiving feedback from OSM users

Thanks - but that there are a couple of issues with that.

One is that communication isn't occurring - hence the angry reply at http://lists.openstreetmap.ch/pipermail/talk-ch/2022-April/011470.html ,

Another is that the quality of some of Mapbox's mapping doesn't reflect https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/How_Mapbox_Data_RAVE_team_work_on_receiving_feedback_from_OSM_users . The DWG have had a number of issues recently where Mapbox editors have changed something from "wrong, and detected by a QA metric" to "differently wrong, but not detected by a QA metric". In the long term editing like this harms the quality of OSM because it prevents mappers fixing problems properly.

Obviously we (the DWG) raise issues with individual mappers and if necessary with Mapbox directly but the worrying thing is that Mapbox as a company appears not to be learning from its mistakes - Mapbox has been involved with (and dependent on) OSM data for many years now but we're still seeing examples of really poor quality mapping, of the "just remove a tag so that a detected error goes away, never mind if it actually matches the actual situation" variety.
