Thank you, I no understand what you meant. OpenHistoricalMap is, alas, not functional / dead project at the moment. I don't think contributing to it is even possible. Regards.

Hallo everyone, Warmbacher it's good to see you here ! I'll take your point and I might gradually change admin_level=10 which results of merger municipalities back to admin_level=8 with boundary=historic and the date of merging. That make the most sense. It does not matter whether the old boundaries show up on mapnik or not, but what does matter is that makes the former municipalities still searchable, so it's definitely a better idea (in case someone who was not aware of the merging searches them, they find them). I've seen people use boundary:disused=administrative or something like that. I do not think it's a good idea, "disused" refers more to physical things such as railways, rather than logical objects such as boundaries (according to my own understanding of the wiki). Simon, I do not understand what you do mean when you think old boundaries "will eventually decay as they won't be maintained". There is no maintaining to do, since the border just is there and never moves ? Unless you're talking about VERY long term (thausands of years) when earthquakes and such will radically alter the landscape, but at this point I don't think computers will still be around, let alone OSM ! And of course old boundaries can be verified by looking at old maps which are past their copyright date. In many cases boundary stones are there too, although no guarantee.

Re: [talk-ch] 2017 municipality mergers (Simon Poole)

While we're on the topic, I think it's a good idea to remain the former municipality boundaries with admin_level=10, rather than delete them. In most merged municipalities I know, there is a requirement for example to have an equal representation of older municipality in commisions (<- I do not know the english term), and it is now possible for people to have a former municipality that merged as a "place of origin" (<- I do not know the english term either). This means the former boundaries still somehow "exist", in the hearts of people if not administratively. Consequently the older municipality relation can also be kept with an "admin_level=10". This is not required, but I'd say it's recommanded, it costs nothing to keep them (simply change admin_level) rather than remove them. I know the recent mergings have been done properly (thank you Simon), but a certain someone added dozen of tags "place=village" for merged municipalities, which is *wrong*. In some cases they even removed the tags for the actual villages ! I spent a lot of time to fix them and move the tags to the corresponding municipality relations. Should any "place=village" tags re-appear where there is no village to indicate a merged municipality, I'll simply remove them and I won't take the time to transfer the tags to the actual municipality relationship.

2017 municipality mergers
by Simon Poole 06 May '17

06 May '17

I merged Cresciano, Iragna, Lodrino and Osognato Riviera today (a bit late as the change was scheduled for the 2nd of April), which completes this years lot of mergers. Given that we have been maintaining the boards now for a longish time in OSM, we should likely start a project to re-verify them against current official boundaries some time in the near future, at the same time we could have a look at the district boundaries which are likely not in a good state (with the exception of Graubünden).
