Bug number Date reported Description Comments Date fixed
197021 Newly inserted entries don't always appear
2970201 Can't insert entry above top one in column Actually you can, by inserting it below the main entry for the whole page, but that's pretty obscure. For simplicity, the algorithm for positioning new entries works by spotting the entry above. I'll think about this, I may be able to solve it along with some other problems.
3970201 The script for adding a new road sometimes crashes
49702?? Entries with the same name cannot be distinguished from each other by the code that merges the unvetted changes list. I'll make it identify things always by the old-name (which is generated randomly but uniquely when the entry is created) instead of dropping the old-name once a real name has been given. The real name will then be for display and tagging only.
5970212 Changes to new entries may be lost by the merge program. I hope to fix this and bug 4 in one go.
