A user in the OSM discord posted this screen grab from their flight sim. A bit of overpass querying and sleuthing leads you to this delightfully typo'd building:levels tag.
A classic.

There’s a new #OpenStreetMap website feature related to #Wikidata!
When viewing objects in OSM that have a Wikidata tag, you can now click the Wikidata icon to turn the opaque QID values into human-readable info (plus a link to Wikipedia if any).

This integrates the functionality that @ZeLonewolf’s browser extension provided directly into the OSM website.

And it's a wrap! Thanks to the 7 participants, including an attendee from Nepal, for attending the 6th OpenStreetMap #WestBengal Mapping Party in #Siliguri, despite the harsh rain in between.
We hope you will join us again to help make #OpenStreetMap better. Each mapper counts.
Special thanks to #TomTom for sponsoring the meal!

Animation visualising the speed of an Edinburgh tram journey from Newhaven to Edinburgh Airport (the full route)
Time scale is approximately 1 sec of animation to 1 minute real time, the whole trip took about an hour.
Red is slow, yellow is fast. Speeded up a lot past Haymarket, when the tracks diverge from the road network.
Used data copyright #OpenStreetMap contributors in QGIS to snap the points to route
