Hi, welcome to OSM. Do you have any evidence that this is the actual name of this house, like a sign on the ground? If something was in a movie a long time ago, it does not mean that it has the name of that movie. See osm.wiki/Names#Name_is_the_name_only for how names in OSM work.
Best,
Will

Hello, what is your evidence for this edit? I live near here and I am pretty sure this left turn is allowed.

I tried to neaten things (removing overlaps by adding the rock formations in Boney Mountain as inner ways, and making the multipolygons smaller) here: changeset/122775190.

Hi, welcome to OSM. Did you intend to make these landcovers very large multipolygon relations? I think each one could probably be its own area, such large relations (like 14277075) can be difficult to work with, and they seem to overlap some existing landcovers. Also, are you mapping these based on imagery alone, or have you been to these places? I've only been around here a couple times, but I think some of these scrub areas look more like grassland to me, like near Rancho Sierra Vista (though in CA, I acknowledge the line can be pretty thin between the two)

Hello. In the United States, "addr:state" refers to the US state the address is in, where the correct value is the two letter postal code. In this case, the correct value is CA. Please keep this in mind in future edits.

Hi, unfortunately we are not allowed to use Google maps as a source for OSM, as Google has not given permission for use of their copyrighted material in a way compatible with our license: osm.wiki/FAQ#Why_don't_you_just_use_Google_Maps/whoever_for_your_data?. Your edits may need to be reverted.

Hello, welcome to OpenStreetMap. What is your source for this edit? Also, it looks like there are numerous typos, for example in the name, website, city, and zip code. Please exercise more care in future edits.

All of us are volunteers, and we welcome edits to the project that are from legitimate sources and improve the quality of OSM data. However, a number of players from your game have been recently making low quality edits, often apparently using sources from whom we do not have permission to copy. So the OSM community is quickly becoming suspicious of these sorts of edits. Please use care to learn and follow our guidelines in any future mapping, even if it slows your progress/cash flow in your game.

I went ahead and deleted this parking lot node here: changeset/122229941. The node was extraneous since the parking lot was already mapped as an area anyway.

This comment hasn't yet received a response @Avasquez, what source did you have in making these changes?

121393300

I went ahead and reverted this changeset and some others of yours here: changeset/122215905, as they didn't conform to the building naming guidelines and introduced a couple other errors. I then added a retail area around Olvera in this change: changeset/122216013. I don't think I've removed any information that wasn't already in the database, but if there's something missing you felt like you had added, let me know and we can discuss the best tags for it.

As for the tagging of Olvera Street itself, its old tagging (highway=pedestrian) implies no vehicle access, so it was appropriate for this way.

Thanks for responding. In OSM, buildings are only named if they have a formal name in real life, not as descriptions (see, for example the nearby Pico House: relation/12292681). If you want to name a shopping area, it's better to draw an area around it and tag it landuse=retail. I've been to Olvera St many times, so I can say from experience that this tag is appropriate. If you want to tag individual artisan shops, you can add a node at the shop's location with a tag like shop=gift (tourist-oriented items). Or you can use a more specific value, like if they sell art (shop=art) or clothes (shop=clothes). You can see a whole list of shop tags here: shop=*

122188577

Hello, when adding a shop to a building with multiple shops, it's better practice to add a node for the shop, rather than adding its tag to the whole building. Also, what is your source for these edits? I can't find anything on the web indicating there's a clothing shop by this name here.

Hi Anthony, if you take a look at the history of this way, you'll see it's gone back and forth between trunk and motorway. Eventually, we decided to adhere to the CA-wide standard of where the "End Freeway" sign is (osm.wiki/California/Map_features). Here, that sign is at Lincoln: node/9523487423. Moreover, this segment has a very low speed limit for a motorway (45 mph). Did you have a reason to upgrade this segment back to motorway?

121435994

I changed this bike path back to its previous tagging in changeset/122044823. I'm not sure what you intended, but this definitely isn't a freeway. If you meant to add different information to this way, feel free to comment here and maybe I can help you find an appropriate tag.

121793102

Great, thank you for the prompt response!

Fixed in changeset/121998984

Hello, this changeset appears to have broken the ordering of the member ways of the bus route relations along Centinela. Please use caution in the future so as to keep the ordering of the ways in the relations correct when splitting road segments.

Hi, I'm not sure of the tags you've added here. "Operator" is for the company that operates the lot, not a description. So in this case, it might be the City of Los Angeles, or maybe a contractor. Also, what currency is this charge in? I'd be surprised if the fee to park in a public lot was not in US dollars.
