143840599

Hello.
When mapping sidewalks that run along straight streets, try not to add intermediate nodes where it's not necessary. If a street is straight its sidewalks should have just 2 nodes at the corners.
For example, here along Taylor Street the sidewalk that you added has 3 unnecessary nodes.

Adding extra nodes is not wrong, but they don't add any useful details, bloat the database size and if not positioned perfectly in-line make your mapping look sloppy.

Hello.
Once again, please note that feature description should go into the feature's name= tag. There's no need to name a sidewalk Sidewalk since that's already indicated in its other tags.

Hello.
I reverted this changeset due to numerous problems.
A foot path should not be named "footh path". Unless it has an actual proper name, a description of a feature should NOT go into its name= tag.
Additionally, you mapped this foot path crossing many obvious fences and none of it matches the actual satellite imagery.
could you please elaborate what you were trying to do here?

'House number and street names MUST be in separate tags. Also this is wrong tag name and value for the country name.
This edit reverted in full.'

What are you trying to map here? There's already a crosswalk just a few feed south along Stillwell Ave..?

Additionally, a building should be tagged as landuse. Instated you can update building=yes to be building=school.

Hello.
It seems you accidentally dragged a restaurant to a wrong location. This most likely happened when you were panning around on the map. Please pay attention not to accidentally damage unrelated features.

Hello.
If you want to change stop signs to be on individual ways, they should be placed on ALL relevant ways and they should be placed where the cars actually stop, as can be clearly seen from the road marking. Tagging it on only 1 way in only 1 direction incorrectly indicates the situation of this intersection.

Hello.
Please note that crosswalks in NYC are generally covered in asphalt. It's extremely rare for them to be made of concrete.
Please map ONLY features that you personally observed or know exact details of. Otherwise, imaginary mapping is considered vandalism and can result in reverts or account ban.

Hello.
Rather than completely deleting this node, it's much better to use lifecycle prefixes as documented in osm.wiki/Lifecycle_prefix or at the very least delete only biz-specific tags but leave address tags intact. That way you are not only preserving the history of this node if there's ever a need to reference it, but also this address remains searchable and navigable.

Hello.
You changed this biz' address. However, this node is located nowhere even close to the E56th Street.
Did this biz moved to the new location or what is going on here? Why was the address changed but not its node location?
