Topic: Changesets requesting review

Should there be an additional RSS topic for changesets requesting a review?

I've made a change recently, that I was not 100% sure in. Since iD suggests to request review I decided to agree this time, but outside of changeset having additional tag, it doesn't seem like it is shown anywhere.

would be good to have on zulip

HellMap (Mar 03 2026 at 18:41):

Yeah, that's probably a good RSS to have.

If I understood how current feeds work (which is not granted :slight_smile:), feed on the same site already in use also exists.

It is alive!
#RSS > Find Suspicious OpenStreetMap Changesets

One small issue: due to the way how bot decides on the name of channel - channel is called "Find Suspicious OpenStreetMap Changesets".
If somebody has a permission to pin a message, pinning short explanation that only changesets with request for review are shown there would be grand!

markalex (Mar 09 2026 at 18:46):

Emmm, not that bot. Seems this chat has a recognition for word bot linking to address updating one =)

Colby (Mar 09 2026 at 19:01):

would also be good to clean up the other names too

markalex (Mar 09 2026 at 19:05):

Well, names are taken from the title of RSS.
Changing channel names would require rewriting how bot "selects" the name of channel to send message to.

markalex (Mar 09 2026 at 19:36):

I looked at how bot(correct link!) it written - providing custom names for target channel is kinda possible, but it will be PITA.
Like, one would need to parse feed list, and then call bot with topic param to override destination and a dynamic feed file with a single url.

markalex (Mar 10 2026 at 19:16):

I had a small go at imagining how custom names for topics would look like here. It's not as unpleasant as I expected it to be at first, but still not particularly elegant IMO.

It's not tested, because I don't have a zulip instance to test it on. For that reason - it's not a PR.
But if somebody has a good idea how to test this stuff, we can play around with that)

Rihards Olups (Mar 10 2026 at 19:20):

Test in prod? =)

markalex (Mar 10 2026 at 19:21):

Not in this case

markalex (Mar 10 2026 at 19:22):

On the other hand, if you could create a test channel, like RSS-test, or something, we can use it

markalex (Mar 10 2026 at 19:22):

Almost test in prod, I guess)
