Quest to check if recycling container is still present

[johnjohndoe]

I noticed that a lot of recycling containers, mostly clothes, are removed or replaced by others. It would be great to have a quest so users can verify if the container is still there.

I agree. This would be nice for a couple of things. There are many things (in this world) which are mapped but often have only a limited likely "half-life" until they should be checked again.

There is an issue for that already, see #314.

I am aware of the lastchecked tag. But is there a quest which allows to delete containers which have been removed?

[westnordost]

No. But your suggestion goes into a whole new category of quests - "re-check if data is valid" quests. These are (technically) not possible at all yet and #314 contains discussion about what would be the first steps there to enable these kinds of quests.

The point is, it's not only about containers. It is about construction sites, about (short-lived) shops, about bicycle way smoothness, about wheelchair accessibility, ... about everything, because everything needs to be rechecked and perhaps deleted if it doesn't exist anymore. (Only, certain elements are usually longer-lived than others, i.e. a road as-such is longer-lived than a recycling container).

As for containers: if you answer the container quest, you can just choose "cannot answer' and add a note about this.
