Hello.
Rather than deleting existing features and creating new ones, it's better to update them to be more accurate. Doing that preserves history of objects which can be useful to refer to in the future.

Hello.
Instead of completely deleting a closed biz it's much better to use lifecycle prefix by marking it as disused: as documented in osm.wiki/Lifecycle_prefix
Or at the very least just delete biz-specific tags and leave address info in place. Doing that not only allows that address to still be searchable but also preserves history of this object which can be useful to refer to in the future.

Hello.
When you are mapping building you supposed to map the actual shape of the building.
In OSM we do not map plots of lands/property lines.
This edit and other similar ones were reverted in full.

Hello.
Please pay attention to map feature accurate to how they are in the real world.
This pond clearly doesn't have a perfect 90' angel corner.

Looking at the extremely low quality of this user's other edits, this whole changeset most likely needs to be reverted in full.

142941652

Hello.
Please note that this edit is going to be reverted due to it being extremely low quality. Not a single building that you mapped matches anything that's visible in the satellite imagery. Also buildings do not intersect on themselves.

Hello.
When mapping sidewalks please connect them to each other where appropriate to create a proper navigable way route. A bunch of disconnected ways are useless for routing.

Hello.
Please note that all crosswalks must be connected to their intersecting roads and the intersection node must have the correct tags as well.

Hello.
Please note that this is incorrect way to tag a sidewalk. The previous tags were correct.

Hello.
Could you please explain why did you move a tree to what appears to be a warehouse?

Additionally, crosswalks controlled by traffic lights MUST be tagged as crossing=traffic_signals, and NOT crossing=uncontrolled.

However, as documented in building:part=*

"Where a building has been split into parts, a building outline has still to be drawn of the whole building way and should have the tags building:levels=* and height=*. These values should be the maximum of all the building parts. A building that has a three-story part and a six-story part is still a six-story building."

Your change doesn't seem to match what's documented..

Hello.
Could you please elaborate why did you delete solar panels node from this building? It appears to be correctly mapped.

142789649

Hello.
Since you already added amenity=place_of_worship tag to the building it's not a good idea to create a node with the same tag because that goes against osm.wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element

Hello.
Could you please elaborate why did you delete the two tags here? They appear to be correct according to the NYC DOB database.

Josm is a rather advanced, complicated and not the most user friendly, but it is very powerful and flexible.
However, still consider giving iD and/or RapiD a try. They are simpler for the most common tasks.

142736171

Hello.
Please note that it's generally better to update existing features to be more accurate to the real world rather than delete them and create new ones.
Updating existing features preserves that feature's history, which can be referenced to in the future if there's ever a need.
Additionally, when you deleted the previous building you also deleted nycdoitt:bin= tag. That tag uniquely identifies in building in NYC's DoB database and allows us to look up various metadata about that building. In the future please pay attention to preserve that tag.๐Ÿ‘
