Hi, zoom in enough to see existing features and beware of nearby objects to prevent snapping buildings to roads/landuse areas.

Hi, remember to remove "building=yes" from inner elements of the multipolygon. Also watch out for near by features to avoid connecing buildings to roads / landuse areas.

Hi, I am deleted most buildings from this changeset as it only added duplicates. Please download existing data from OpenStreetMap in JOSM before adding new features.

Welcome to OpenStreetMap. Here is a resource on getting you started with iD Editor https://learnosm.org/en/beginner/id-editor/

Do not connect buildings to roads.
Also map the footprint of the buildings as they should be.

Hi, building should represent the footprint of the building and name should be the name that is known. What is TTBTN ?

Hi,
"Added Buildings" is a more useful and related changeset comment. Take a look at how and why Good changeset comments osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

163029367

Hi, What are you doing? Which West Hills Mall are you mapping here? The opening hours you have added to these features also look assumed? Where are you getting these information from?

172011261

Hi,
Are you sure about the street names? You added similar name on way/170122653

Isn't there Road/Street attached to the names? How are you coming up with these names?

163032831

Hi, you have added 3 different notes at e same location

- node/13147023625
- node/12624210965

Can you move them to their correct locations and delete duplicates?

Hi, Once again don't just keep pressing buttons inside StreetComplete if you are not sure of what you are doing

Hi, I have reverted this changeset others. Do not upload data to OpenStreetMap if you don't know what you are doing.

Hi, welcome to OSM, unfortunately you kept deleting and adding tags that you don't seem to understand. If you are not sure of what you are doing don't upload to OpenStreetMap. Also pay attention to JOSM validation messages before hitting upload. Here is a good resource on getting started to OpenStreetMap https://welcome.openstreetmap.org/

Hi,
I recommend using Bing aerial imagery as Esri World Imagery is very out-dated and misaligned with existing data. Also one building per changeset can be more buildings per changeset. Write good changeset comments that describe what you have mapped not only series of hashtags that do not say anything useful, here is a good read osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

Hi,
I continue to delete and reuse where possible https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gh/2023-May/000649.html several useless cluster of ways (some unconnected, path-unclassified-path) in Ghana by multiple remote mapping groups, and yes some valid ways have been deleted/restored in the process. "Spaghetti ways" will serve their purpose best outside OpenStreetMap.

Massive remote mapping of all visible trails on aerial imagery that is of no importance and likely leads nowhere is not helping. It has only left a lot of mess that only volunteers spend lot of time trying to fix or will continue to stay in OpenStreetMap forever. osm.wiki/Highway_Tag_Africa is useful and could apply in some cases in Ghana and elsewhere but should be followed responsibly.

A question for your team is if you have been able to verify these ways? Can you drive on these roads? Look at the odd geometries and where they connect to verifiable existing roads, does it make sense? In the presence of street-level images, I have seen the worst cases.
