Hello.
Are those actually tunnels through the building or entrances/exits to underground parking garages?

A couple of things: while both wikipedia and OSM are community contributed projects, we have different rules and standards and needs. So on OSM we should be following OSM's norms, not wikipedia's. :)
As that article says, if a string/name is too long, for computers it's trivial to follow certain basic language rules to abbreviate words. However, certain words are impossible to accurately expand without human intervention.
It cost us nothing to expand abbreviated words and avoids potential confusion in the future.

OSM is a volunteer project so I can't force you to make edits you don't want. :) As long as they are not wrong, everybody is free to map what they want. Since you've been on a spree of adding wikidata/wikipedia links to features, it would be nice if when you come across such names to fix them, but it's your call.

Also there are some conversations going on of potentially in the future stop adding wikipedia links and only use wikidata since it's usually more specific, and if appropriate add wikipedia links into wikidata article..

Hello.
Looking at satellite and streetview imagery of these ways, it seems like it's a public sidewalk that turns into a pedestrian plaza with shops, restaurants and hotels, so this shouldn't be tagged as =private. Once again, =customers or =permissive values are suitable.

Hello.
Based on satellite and streetview imagery, this looks like a driveway into a parking lot for employees and customers of this hospital. As such =private would not be a suitable tag value here. This should be either =customers or =permissive.

How crooked is it? Is it taking bribes?

Other ways as well. Ya, it's on nyc parks website, but none of those features people can actually take advantage of...

As your link states "Moses considered Shore Parkway, and the rest of the Belt Parkway, to be a “continuous park system, not merely an automobile artery, a system of shoestring parks and recreational facilities encircling the entire metropolis….” Examples of such parks along Leif Ericson Drive include Dyker Beach Park, Bensonhurst Park and Dreier-Offerman Park. "

But other than those examples and maybe a couple more parks along the highway, none of that other green space is usable. It's just a bunch of fenced of shrubbery along Belt Parkway.
Perhaps the roads themselves should be renamed with Leif Ericson Drive as alt_name, but I'm not sure it should be "leisure=park".

Hello.
I see that on some ferry routes you added relevant info directly on the way and on some you created relations. It's best if it's consistently done with relations following PTv2 schema.
Additionally, some of the info is duplicated on the way and on the relation. Doing that goes against osm.wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element

What do you think if we name firehouses based on "FacilityName" field from https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Public-Safety/FDNY-Firehouse-Listing/hc8x-tcnd
So that it's consistent across datasets?

I'm not sure if Leif Ericson Drive should be tagged as a park. It's just a bunch of fenced off semi-neglected bushes along the belt parkway...

Hello.
If this business is on Lex and E40th street, how come you positioned it on E181st street?

Hello.
As documented in osm.wiki/Names#Abbreviation_(don't_do_it), it's not necessary to abbreviate place names. That article even explicitly gives an example of St. being ambiguous of Street or Saint.

Since this is a volunteer project and everybody contribute in their own free time, has it occurred to you that perhaps people sometimes don't have that free time respond in the time period that you want?!
Let's not turn this into edit wars and keep in mind that map vandalism will be referred to DWG.

Hello.
You tagged this intersection with traffic_signals:vibration=yes. Could you please elaborate on that? I've never seen such intersections in NYC.

browser's URL doesn't update when you move the view, so I don't know what you are pointing at.
But I see what you mean regarding 6am-8pm
In that case it should be `access:conditional=no @ (06:00-20:00)` in addition to bus=yes; hgv =yes
Which means busses and trucks are allowed all the time, but cars are not allowed 6am-8pm

https://www.geocoder.nyc/streetview.html?lnglat=-73.80783140659334,40.701764550575255
Yes, that's why it's been set to
access=no; bus=yes; hgv =yes

I don't understand you.🤔
