Remove subarea relations

Harel_M · 2018-01-18T23:19:19.000Z

Hi,

The following relation has child relations which have the role of subarea:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/5862586

According to the following wiki, subarea are deprecated.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:boundary#Relation_members

I would like to remove the link between the parent relation to the child relations.

Please let me know if you have any objections.
Thanks,
Harel M.

There are currently 3 relations with “subarea” members in Israel - http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/v4n

I’ve sent comment at https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/55217428 about the addition of “subarea” members in several changesets.

By the way, a deeper look into https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/55216134 shows it

Changed the role of Ramalla in the West Bank relation from “admin_center” to “label”

Changed the role of Jerusalem in the Israel relation from “admin_center” to “proclaimed_capital”

Added Russian names to Area A, Area B, and Area C

Did NOT modify the “Jerusalem District” and “Judea and Samaria” relations

I've added a comment on the first two changes.

Let’s hope we’ll hear back from him.

Tomorrow will be a week since I’ve sent the above messages. I’m planning to revert these changes tomorrow unless I hear from the user.

Note that “admin_center” is misspelled; the correct spelling is “admin_centre”. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:boundary#Relation_members

Thanks!
Reverting restores the original tag, not my spelling mistake above…

You’re welcome. Reverting would restore the correct spelling in Jerusalem’s case, but not in Ramallah’s: there the tag’s value was spelled “admin_center” (sic) before it was changed to “label”.

Reverted + JOSM validation warnings cleanup.
