General rules
The following general rules apply:

Do not map where individuals live; specifically, do not add the names of inhabitants to dwellings.
OpenStreetMap is not a property registry; thus, do not map individual ownership of buildings or plots (see also: Parcel).
OpenStreetMap is not a phone book. Do not map contact data of individuals. For mapped businesses and offices that are public record, adding contact information is acceptable.
Do not name individuals in OpenStreetMap tags unless their name is displayed on a business sign visible from the street, is part of the business name, or is otherwise publicly available. For example, tagging operator=* based on data printed on receipts is normal.
Do not map the personal behaviors, preferences, or habits of individuals.

***Limit the detail of mapping private backyards.***

As a guideline, permanently installed private swimming pools (add access=private as appropriate) or some structures in semi-public gardens are acceptable. More detailed information is likely to be not acceptable or borderline.
Do not map personal possessions or their locations (like vehicles, TVs, washing machines, or the number of livestock belonging to a household); tags for such should be limited to communal use, e.g., a laundry facility at a campsite.
Do not map personal private indoor facilities, such as showers and toilets in private apartments or houses.

These are you general rules and I was deleting farms and homes with farm roads (On private property) marked as public roads. I understand you want detailed maps , but i don't think you would want your backyard mapped on any map either.

Hello,

Is there a reason only certain driveways and houses are being mapped while others are untouched? I think if a person needs driveways shouldn't they map every driveway and not pick and choose ? I think you are wrong to target certain houses.

Hello,
Why is it that only CERTAIN driveways are marked. I would think that all of them should be marked and that we are not targeting specific houses.

Hello. The edits made to these driveways were done to correct a major routing safety issue. These are strictly private driveways, not public roads or throughways. Mapping them as public routing options is causing commercial/routing traffic to erroneously use them as turnarounds and stops, creating a physical safety hazard.

If completely removing them violates mapping guidelines, please help me ensure they are correctly tagged as access=private and service=driveway so that navigation systems stop routing traffic onto this private property. Thank you."
