| 60083589 | Welcome to OpenStreetMap! A couple things to keep in mind for future mapping: 1) The usual practice for mapping schools is to put the school name on the school grounds, and only put a name on the school building if it's different from the school name. 2) "Living Street" is pretty much purely a European concept. You can find the tags for ordinary streets by searching for "road". 3) Make sure the roads you're adding are connected properly. The extension of Clodfelter Road you added was only connected at one end. I've fixed the problems for you here, but it's something to remember. |

| 60044504 | When you're adding a building, there's an easy way to get square corners: once you've drawn and tagged it, right-click and select "Square" (the third option from the right-click menu), or highlight it and hit the "S" key. The editor will adjust the corners to the nearest 90-degree or 45-degree angle. |
|
| 60015122 | The original tracing of the building was more accurate. The reason it appears to have a point on the west side is that the satellite wasn't quite directly overhead when it took the picture. This makes the peak of the roof appear to stick out to one side. |
|
| 60013882 | This building contains a Target, a Best Buy, and probably at least one not-yet-mapped business between the two. Putting the name "Target" on it is both incorrect and redundant with the existing mapping of the Target store. |
|
| 60024571 | Are you sure these are reservoirs? From the air, they look rather like settling ponds for treating sewage. |
|
| 59994762 | Glassman, Tori B is editing with Maps.me. From what I understand of how the program works, they've got no control over how often or how much they upload at any given time. |
|
| 59982148 | I think there are a whole lot of people who would be rather unhappy to find you've made their houses part of a state park. |
|
| 59981969 | Many of the programs and websites that make use of OpenStreetMap only update once a month, if that. Because of this, it's not advisable to map things (such as the typical fireworks stand) that only exist for a few weeks every year. |
|
| 59964810 | When you're mapping a stream, draw it from upstream to downstream, so that the flow direction will show up properly on the map. I've fixed Ashley Creek for you, but keep it in mind for the future. |
|
| 59964639 | The school name is already present on the school grounds. No need to repeat it on the school building. |
|
| 59964770 | Is there a reason why you're insisting this is a drydock rather than a pier? |
|
| 59961294 | Don't vandalize the map. It's likely to get your account blocked. |
|
| 59961236 | You've dragged two intersections across the map, connecting random roads, and you've moved a building to the middle of a third intersection. I've fixed them, but please be more careful in the future. |
|
| 59961102 | The "Car Parking" tag is really for purpose-built parking areas, not places where people happen to leave cars sometimes. |
|
| 59960886 | If something doesn't have a name, you can just leave the "name" field blank. |
|
| 59957919 | Please use meaningful changeset comments. A single period doesn't say anything, and is a pain to try to click on in the edit history. |
|
| 59957194 | There's a "Depot Park" in the area already. If you need to make it larger, drag the corners, don't draw a second copy of the park over it. |
|
| 59882511 | There are two problems with what you've added here: First, you've drawn the building outline over two different structures, presumably a house and a garage. If you're having trouble seeing things in the background imagery, try switching to a different background with the "background settings" tab on the right (the one that looks sort of like three stacked sheets of paper). In the Kalispell area, the default "Bing" option looks like it's the newest, while "Esri World Imagery (Clarity) Beta" appears to be the sharpest (but somewhat older). If you're having trouble getting your corners square, draw them reasonably close to accurate, then highlight the building and hit "S" to square them up. Second, the name "Best Parents House" is unverifiable: no other mapper can come along and tell if it's correct or not. Please only add things to the map if they can be verified. I've fixed both these problems here, but it's something to keep in mind for the future. Happy mapping! |

| 59854021 | It's probably what OpenStreetMap considers a "track". To tag the road, start editing, and highlight a section of the road you created. Enter "track" into the search field on the left, and it should bring up "Unmaintained Track Road" as one of the options. Click on that to apply it to the road segment. Repeat for each of the other road segments, and then save your changes. |

| 59854021 | Did you forget to tag what sort of road this is? |
