     11After simplification, all of the deleted nodes will be closer than the in the popup specifed distance (e.g. 3 m) to the simplified way. In other words, the old and the new way will never be more than e.g. 3 m apart.

     13The tool uses the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramer–Douglas–Peucker_algorithm Ramer–Douglas–Peucker algorithm] for way simplification, but makes sure that tagged nodes and nodes with more than one parent way are not deleted.

    13 You can configure this threshold in the [wiki:Help/Preferences/Advanced advanced preferences] ({{{simplify-way.max-error}}}, in meters, default value is 3). A lower threshold makes the simplification less aggressive.
