Better-osm-org for watchmans

Posted by TrickyFoxy on 25 June 2024 in English. Last updated on 9 July 2024.

In new version of userscript, I focused on analyzing edits. QuickLook for changesets, hotkeys, filtering changesets, mass actions and more.

I wonder how well this phenomenon is known in the world ๐Ÿค”

Help wanted: I would be grateful if someone knows how to get into the site code and manage the map (add new objects, change layers, colors โ€ฆ) This would make it much easier for new features to appear. Otherwise, they will only be available in OSM-NG (: upd: solution found!

๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™‚๏ธ QuickLook of changes in tags

Now you donโ€™t need to open OSMCha for simple changesets. Tag changes will be visible directly on the changeset page.

Now you can easily check edits that are the size of a whole world:

The extension will also show whether there have been changes to the geometry and whether the objects made by the user still exist

But what if you need to check a lot of edits from the StreetComplete user? Now you can use Alt + โ†/โ†’ to navigate between user edits!

๐Ÿ—‚๏ธ Filtering changesets

Tired of that osm.org/history spammed with big edits? Now you can hide large edits. Or filter them by user and comment.

And yes, now you donโ€™t have to click Load More many times

๐ŸŒช Mass actions

Have you ever encountered a situation where you need to cancel a MAPS.ME user edits? Now itโ€™s easy to do.

โ—๏ธ Do not engage in rollbacks of mass automatic vandalism! This will quickly make DWGs and manual rollbacks will make it harder for them to work โ—๏ธ

๐Ÿชช Highlighting moderators and blocked users

To reduce your worries about vandalism, the list of recent changesets highlights the accounts of moderators, blocked users and beginners.

๐Ÿ•ต๏ธ Search for deleted account usernames

The Internet remembers everything. OpenStreetMap is no exception.
