Hi
please check this import. Many of the ways have a large amount of foreign tags that don't look like they should be in OSM.Thanks!

Yes, I know. I strip those tags before uploading. Did I forget to do this for a section of coastline? Can you provide an OSM ID for a section that still has the foreign tags?
Thank you.

There are 16 ways with the tags:

Thank you. I removed the extra tags. I must have forgotten to do it earlier.
I'm curious to know how you happened to notice these tags? There are so few people mapping in Alaska it always amazes me to get a comment on one of my changesets.
Thanks again.

I have to disappoint you, but I'm not mapping in Alaska specifically. There's a script running that looks for new keys in the database:

I'm not disappointed.
I was curious to know how you noticed my "New tags" in Alaska seeing as most of your OSM mapping work is elsewhere.
You have answered that question and satisfied my curiosity.
Thanks for sharing the information.

Actually, while your script is interesting, I'm not sure I would want to look at it every day and see all the strange keys people create. The flexibility offered by the OSM platform encourages users to invent any old tag they like. It must drive you crazy sometimes.
