"the wedding I went to": I don't think "I went to" is an A-scene. I think the relative clause requires an elaborator:
[the wedding_P]_C [I went [to_R (wedding)_P]_A]_E
Nathan, I think your solution may lead to problems is there are more elements to the Scene.
[the_F service_P]_C [I_A witnessed_P]_E wasF efficient?
In fact, it seems that the relative clause here either takes scope over the entire scene, in which case it should be:
[the_F service_P]_C- [I_A witnessed_P (service)_A ]_E [was_F efficientD ]-C?
OR:
[the_F service_P]_A- I_A witnessed_P [was_F efficientD ]-A?

I would have done:
[[the_F service_P]_C [I_A witnessed_P]_E]_A was_F efficient_S
And what about "The service was efficient". Don't we annotate it as?
the_F service_P was_F efficient_D

Yes, that's the solution we've been following
OK, so what do you think about the solution of making it two Hs, with a remote:
[The_F service_P ]_H- [I witnessed (service)_P]_H [was_F efficientD]-H
?

I meant: [The_F service_P ]_H- [I witnessed (service)_A ]_H [was_F efficientD]-H
If "the service was efficient" is
the_F service_P was_F efficient_D
then UCCA is removing the information structure of where the main syntactic predication is, making it equivalent (modulo was_F) to "the efficient service". In which case more information structure is preserved when adjectives modify non-scene-evokers (attributive "the [tall_S (boy)_A]_E boy" vs. predicative "[the boy]_A was tall_S").
If that is the policy, then I think "the service I witnessed was efficient" should be the same as "I witnessed the efficient service" / "I witnessed the service (that) was efficient", i.e.
[the_F service_P]_A- I_A witnessed_P [was_F efficientD]\-A
That's acceptable in my view. Dotan?

I see that you continued this discussion in other issue ( #48 ) and that your conclusion was that you prefer the two H solution. If I understand correctly, you prefer that we generally use the two H solution when dealing with RCs over P/S so that's what I'll follow unless you raise it up again.
Yes. Let's do the two Hs

The guidelines re stranding prepositions refer to cases where the A is missing: "In some cases, an A is missing but its preposition is in place. We mark the preposition as an A, with an R inside of it, and add the preposition's object as a Remote" ``The_F book_C [I_A 'm_F looking_P [for_R \rem{book}_C ]_A]_E''
What do we if the A is not missing from the scene (see examples below)?, if we follow the guidelines in such cases as well, it seems like we are adding an unnecessary Participant.
[This path]_A has already been walked [on_R (path?)_C]_A What_A are_F you_A talking_P [about_R (what?)_C]_A?
We were wondering if we need to consider an alternative solution for these cases?
What do we if the A is not missing from the scene
Indeed, it doesn't make sense to have something as a participant AND a remote participant of the same scene. Shouldn't it be a discontiguous unit in those cases?
[[This path]_C]_A– has already been walked [onR]\–A [[What]_C]_A– are you talking [aboutR]\–A
makes sense

Yes, makes sense, thanks.
I made some updates to "preposition stranding" section:
1) Originally it said to add a remote C and I changed it to "add the preposition's object as a Remote" 2) I added an example with a Remote P: ``[The wedding]$_P$ [I went [to$_R$ \rem{wedding}$_P$]$_A$]$_A$ was$_F$ beautiful$_D$
