Hi, is this actually a track or is it just a driveway? If it's a driveway (even if it's dirt) it should be tagged as highway=service, service=driveway, and then you can pick an appropriate surface= tag (unpaved is a generic one that would cover it too)

Hi Evlyn, thanks for correctly tagging access instead of removing the tracks. If these tracks don't have names (which considering the unauthorised nature, is likely), then the name tag should be removed, not set to "No track".

Already went and fixed it up myself, but in future it would be good if the map builder team would act on feedback, especially if they are adding map builder edits on behalf of their users.

Hey and welcome to OSM! One tip, driveways generally don't extend into a house, you'd just want to put it where the driveway actually is and end it short of the house.

If you're uploading data into OSM, it's your responsibility to ensure it's correct.

Hi, is this definitely a residential road, or is it just a driveway for a subdivided property?

There's an osm@meta.com email address on their wiki page, osm.wiki/Organised_Editing/Activities/Meta

Is this definitely a house? Looking just south there's a building that looks more like a house, and from aerial imagery it could easily be a shed instead of a house.

Hi, I've removed all the individual parking areas bar the loading zone, there's already an amenity=parking way covering the whole parking lot, and that's how parking areas should be drawn (see amenity=parking).

I've also tagged the loading area to signify this as well.

Yeah I'd have to agree with disused, and access=discouraged really, if NPWS actively starts removing the track/puts up signs clearly indicating access being forbidden, then the respective tags should change. Until there's no signs of a track on Bing/ESRI and on the ground, the way itself should remain to clearly indicate the current state.

Hi, phone=000 is incorrect for a number of reasons, not only is it not the wrong format, but it's also not the phone number for this specific location. See osm.wiki/Australian_Tagging_Guidelines/Australian_features#Triple_Zero for more info.

Hi, I don't think this actually qualifies as a service road, it would be a track if anything. I also suspect this imagery is out of date and that track may not exist anymore, I'll survey it soon and confirm.

147406352

There is lifecycle prefixes that can be used to show something has been removed, but keeps it in the database so that other mappers don't re-map it based on aerial imagery. osm.wiki/Lifecycle_prefix

I'd suggest demolished, removed, or razed.

Hi there, are you able to let us know what was actually done in this change. Also, I'd recommend keeping your changes local, this spans several countries.

Hey, this doesn't need a multipolygon type, it's just a simple way. Multipolygons are when you use a relation to group two or more ways to represent one object.

Hey Caleb, you've misspelled trunk and trunk_link as truck and truck_link on this edit.

Hey there, is the house actually named Lincoln 69? There's a tag addr:housename that's available, but it's also is unusual for houses to have both a number and name from what I've seen.

I'd also recommend using the Q keyboard shortcut in iD/JOSM to square off buildings where possible.

Just as an FYI, if you don’t check the actual objects you’re editing, that counts as mechanical.

147279800

Hi, is the name of this actually suffixed with -National Trust? It's already in the operator tag (albeit misspelled).
