Comment from mueschel
Hi,
this changeset generated a lot of objects with a huge number of tags that are not documented and seem to have been added by mistake during this import.Jan

Comment from Bgabor
Hi,
All 4000 points a certain water sources in the area and all attached attribute is important. -
Comment from mueschel
If this information is important, I suggest to use common tags that can be parsed by existing software.
Btw, I don't see a connection to hotosm project 2525 you mention in the changeset comment. Has this import of data been discussed on the appropriate mailing list? Is this data really 'open'? The website you mention explicitly states "License not specified". -

Hi:
If this is an import and haven't been discussed, it should be reverted inmediatly.
Imports have to be discussed with the local community and with the imports list, and should be documented and the source compatible with the ODbL. -
Comment from muralito
No doubt it is an import. It should be reverted, or at least discussed, fixed and the resulting new tags documented.

This import has been reverted: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/46535966
Please, read and follow the imports guidelines (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines) before doing any import. Imports have to be documented, been given ODbL compatible permission by the copyright owners of the data and discussed with both the local OSM community and the imports list, before actually importing anything. -

Hello Bgabor,
Just to echo what has been said above - if you want to import data please do read https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import and follow the links from it.
If you've got any questions you can either mail the Data Working group at data@osmfoundation.org or ask on the "imports" list at https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/imports/ - people will be able to answer any questions there.
Best Regards,
Andy Townsend, on behalf of OSM's Data Working Group. -
Comment from Bgabor
Hi,
I will send a letter for the National Bureau of Statistics to Tanzania, and ask them to clarify the licenses for all data from http://opendata.go.tz/ website.
PS: thank you for your efforts...

Comment from muralito
Hello Bgabor:
If the terms & conditions are the same as stated in http://opendata.go.tz/en/pages/kanuni-na-masharti , I'm not sure if the d) paragraph is compatible with ODbL.
Maybe in this case we need explicit permission from the owner to import their data into OSM.

@Bgabor,
I'd suggest having this discussion on the "imports" list - there people will be able to advise you about licenses.
See https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/imports/2017-February/004819.html for where this import was first mentioned there.
Best Regards,
Andy
