Could you be a bit more careful when adding place names from USGS topo maps? "Tolido" isn't the name of an inhabited place, it's the name of a now-destroyed survey marker: https://www.ngs.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/ds_mark.prl?PidBox=SV1197

Didn't get that from a topo, and yes it at least used to be an inhabited place.
As I recall, someone had deleted the old "Tolido" placename so I recreated it and merged it with a Salish placename that was right next to the survey marker. Yeah I shouldn't have merged them.
Tolido was a railroad station on the Spokane-Cd'A interurban: it was the transfer station (until around 1930) for those wanting to take the train to Liberty Lake, and it was still used as a placename (between Greenacres and Lib Lake) on plat maps at least into the 70's.

It was often misspelled "Telido" - and in fact there's a corresponding commercial+residential development called "Telido Station".

In case you didn't notice, this change was from almost 3 years ago, in my first year of mapping for OSM.
I wonder what kind of crap map changes I would find if I looked at YOUR changesets from your first year of mapping? >:) -

Apologies for the snark. After thinking about it, I'm sure I would have come to the same conclusion as you did, and assumed I was trying to map a survey marker as a place.

Hopefully you'll find fewer of my early crap map changes in the near future. I came across this while researching the 130+ named places in Spokane County. So far, I've been able to confirm the accuracy of just under half of them, and found clear errors in about a quarter.
(And the "Telido Station" development is looking very much like a "was" rather than an "is". The last mention in the Spokesman-Review was in 2008, the website went offline in 2016, and satellite imagery of the area shows no construction as of last month.)

Oh wow... that's too bad about Telido Station. I thought it was pretty cool that they were keeping a historic name going.
That's not a very good ratio on the Spokane Co named places. Let me know if you want a hand with any of the railroad-related ones, since that's where a lot of my Spokane Co history knowledge lies.
Also - do you find that the "disused:name" tag is widely accepted as a way of labeling placenames that are no longer in use?
