In the time I am not outdoors, I would like to improve hiking relations (route=hiking) to help other hikers. I found there are some tools for this for cycle paths, like DE:Bicycle/Deutsche Radfernwege - OpenStreetMap Wiki or in Osmose checks for cycleways. But I have not found anything for hiking trails.
Does anyone has a good way to find errors and improve hiking trails? Or is there any kind of project working on this?
When something changes, the script sends me an email like this:

I can then have a look at see what’s changed. Gaps might have been introduced by someone mapping a road junction in more detail, or they might be “real gaps” where perhaps a bridge fell down.
Similarly you can check for superrelations that unexpectedly get ways as members, and ordinary relations that get deleted by mistake.
