Hi,
This boundary is not closed (it does not form a loop to enclose an area). Are you going to finish it? Or should it just be deleted? -
Comment from TuanIfan
I'll do it tonight

And while you're at it: what is the source of this data?
-
Comment from TuanIfan
@TheSwavu: it is based on the Interactive Mapping site of the Brisbane City council. I'll add the source later in my future edits.

OK, so that explains the Brisbane ones. Where did the ones around Bundaberg, that you put in, come from? And how about dropping a message on talk-au (https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au) to let other mappers know that you are planning an import (which is step two of the guidelines https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines).

Hi Swavu,
Bundaberg boundaries were drawn quite a few years ago, during a few months i was in hospital. I drew them on JOSM everyday based on Bundaberg Regional council's mapping site as well.
That's great to know all the steps. I haven't read the guidelines until now.
Just a small question, does the guidelines apply to bulk with an automated tool (i.e. software, apps..) only? In the case of manual drawing, what other steps should I do (in addition a notice to the community via the mailing list, and obtain permission from the mapping site's owner)?
Sincerely,
-

It applies to anything you copy from another map or dataset.
It also means we have a problem with the Bundaberg boundaries because we don't have permission to use them in OSM.
