  • I have tried to edit the rather bad polygon on this place, but every time the message comes up, "Polygon is too big. Reduce its size". A meaningless message - as if one is accurately outline a feature, the polygon must match this size of the feature.
  • At last, I have succeeded in improving this polygon...! Pity it took so long.
