Comment from bhietsch
Hi Dufekin, you've made a lot of very questionable edits around the State College area that can be considered vandalism. Can you please explain why you've made a very large prison ground that covers forest and residential areas? Converted a wastewater plant into a park? Converting roads into a bus guideway? There's several more that make no sense. Please reply soon or I will take it upon myself to revert your edits.

Hi dufekin,
May I remind you of this:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user_blocks/5445
You still are not very active when it comes to answering questions from others.
In addition, your changeset comments could be more specific than just an indication of where you are making your edits.
We would like to know "what" you are editing!
Please read this (and act accordingly):

I was going to comment on this as well. I'm sure that the prison is the owner of the land that is now tagged as a prison, but I don't believe that the majority of the land fits the definition of a prison, especially the giant bit on the mountain (I've been in that area without knowing it was owned by the prison). My opinion is that the land should be tagged as operated by SCI Rockview, and the actual walled areas as prisons.

I'm going to go ahead and remove these edits since he hasn't responded in 6 months. Maybe they correspond to property boundaries, but I doubt it.

Turns out these things are extremely hard to remove and take forever to do so. I'll leave fixme requests in case anyone has the time or know-how to remove these

The large prison area covered the entire grounds of the prison. I'm not sure how the state prison used the expansive grounds (water system, work areas, sewage system, gardens for agriculture, security perimeter, guard housing, wilderness survival experiences, and more are possibilities).
The wastewater plant probably got the "park" tag to make it show on the map. Wastewater plants now show on the map with a nice splotch of color, so that's no longer appropriate (if it ever was). The "bus guideway" probably was a bus-only area, although I don't see it, so I'm not sure.

Please read over these wiki articles before making any more edits. While I'm sure the intent was not malicious, these edits and many like it do not align with best practices in the OSM community. Most notably, it is discouraged to not "map for the renderer", i.e. creating features or adding tags so the features will be visible.
