Hi damncoffee, welcome to OSM.
May I know the reason behind deleting many housenumber interpolatin ways? Thanks.

Halloooo,
In a quick review of much of this changeset, I could see no case where the addressing information was redundant.
In fact, this (these) changeset(s) only seem to have resulted in the loss of useful and important information with nothing as a substitute.
.
I feel a revert to restore these address interpolation lines is appropriate, and if I learn of no justification for these deletions in some time, or if I hear it was a simple error or misunderstanding, I'll prepare to restore this address data.
If that is all right with you...
thanks, damncoffee. -

Hello,
My apologies, I plan to replace the removed information by numbering each building as I review the area, and figured it would be simpler to clear mass areas and then replace over time. I see now that I should replace the information as soon as I delete it.
I feel it would be appropriate to revert these deletions.
Thank you kindly. -

This changeset has been reverted fully or in part by changeset 59057227 where the changeset comment is: Restore prematurely-deleted address interpolation, until replacement address info is in place.

G'mornin', damn coffee...
I was hoping this was a simple misunderstanding here, and I'm pleased that is all it is.
As you can see, I reverted for you many of these deletions. It is possible to later revert my revert, after all affected addresses have appeared on each building. That will work if you already have the address data ready for a quick import, and will save the need to delete everything individually again.
If the addresses get added more slowly in smaller chunks, you may find it easier to do all this yourself, deleting one block of interpolation after adding one block of housenumbers. This is up to your workflow, but the option and offer is there.

Reverted are these changesets large enough to attract Pascal's attention. Additional changesets at the same time included another small enough to slip under Pascal's radar. Two changesets I reviewed and saw also touched other items, one of which was mentioned in the original comment, and I noted in my revert commentary - neither `Unnamed15 Road' nor `Unnamed Road' should be in the OSM data, just delete that from the name= field.
In the second case you deleted one node from a park outline that was restored, but will (with luck) disappear again should you choose the revert-the-revert route later. Otherwise a quick manual search-and-delete will restore your change.
I only reviewed the changes in text mode to find the above; if you yourself review them as graphic overlay via an achavi URL, you may spot other included changes - I was too lazy to bother.
.
Your first two changesets of this bunch (around a week before I write this) that mention this deletion in the description, also included a number of other modified or added items. I left these alone to preserve your work; as your intention is to replace the rough addressing with specific details, rather than delete them outright, I see no need to lose your other changes and drag us both over a bed of hot coals for a well-meaning misunderstanding.
Thanks for your honesty and openness about your intentions, and I hope what I have done is satisfactory.
As mentioned, the offer to un-restore this data later stands when you are ready, should you choose. If I'm still around, the best way to draw my attention would be in a changeset discussion like this (followup here, or reply to your later changesets adding the addresses). If I'm not off doing something else and I'm still obsessing with OSM, I should see it.
.
thanks again for your cooperation.
