Changeset When Comment
130671935

Hi Abrokwa Peter,

Thanks for mapping, and also adding a comment. I am not sure what you mean by "added a building to the imagery". Kindly add the text that describes what you have mapped before hashtags (if any) eg. "added buildings" would have been much useful.

Hi Alpha Ronnie,

Thansk for mapping. Creating a changeset with only one building is not the best. Kindly add more before uploading. Remember to square buildings by pressing Q whilst they are selected or right-click and choose that option. Here is a resource for getting started with iD editor https://learnosm.org/en/beginner/id-editor/

Also use a brief text that describes what you have mapped before hashtags (if any) eg. "added buildings" would have been much useful.

Hi, thanks for mapping, changeset comments are meant to provide useful information to yourself and other mappers briefly about what you have mapped. All these hashtags are less helpful. "added building in Hohoe" would have been much useful changeset comment.

Kindly learn about Good changeset comments here osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

Happy Mapping!

Hi,

Thanks for mapping. Kindly use Title Case for names and avoid ALL UPPERCASE.

Also, using a more descriptive changeset comment instead of just one word, "added road names" would have been more helpful. See osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments

Names of features are not descriptions, street/road names should be what you see on the street signs.

Hi,

Kindly add a useful text before those hashtags, this text should tell briefly what you mapped. eg. added buildings in Charia

That is not how you map a footbridge, don't split every section crossing the road beneath. Kindly avoid changing "highway=motorway" to "highway=tertiary", which is false.

Hi and welcome to OpenStreetMap,

"nice catch" is not a good changeset comment.

What are you trying to achieve here? Adding street names and buildings? The street name is definitely not "HEMANG".

If you map features without any tag - osm.wiki/Map_features , they are useless.

I am reverting your changes here.

I have seen both Chicken Man and Pinkberry on the ground. Are the they same or two in one store.

Welcome to OpenStreetMap, don't just remove tags from objects if you are not sure of what you are doing, e.g. you removed the primary tag `amenity=school` and other useful ones from way/364741731 (I have reverted this)

Also, use the title case form for names. Eg. Klikor Hotel not KLIKOR HOTEL.

Only add names to prominent buildings where they apply, i.e. if they really have the said name, not because it is owned by Person A or Person B.

You didn't have to remove the name from the point. Please add it

128842545

Well done!

"Please help me verify this business!" is not a good changeset comment. Checking "I would like someone to review my edits." before uploading helps. Say "added guest house" is much better.

128841385

I will also change the building to a general building i.e. building=yes and not a house

128841385

All is good. Remove "building:levels=G",
keep the name and details of the guest house on only one feature type; either a point or the building, but not both.

Hi Maxwell, let the building polygon represent the building footprint on the ground. The following
1 - way/1112270948
2 - way/1112268975
and buildings around here do not show what's in the imagery. I have tried to fix one as an example here https://pewu.github.io/osm-history/#/way/1112270948

Hope it helps.

Hi, avoid mapping ghost round buildings such as way/1072889759 and others you have mapped here.

122783521

Hi,
If you can't see what's in the imagery, kindly just don't map anything. For example, way/1072914511 is not a building.

Use a good changeset comment that is meaningful to other mappers too, not just some random hashtags that doesn't help.

Hi abdul_, kindly check the imagery offset for Maxar in/around Wa when adding new data. You can use the "Get Imagery Offset" from the "Imagery" menu in JOSM to see some saved offsets by other mappers and how they fit with existing data.
Happy mapping!
