Hi. If this is a guest house (like, a Bed & Breakfast) that is open to the public, then what is its name? Does it have a website or a phone number? If not, then it's probably just a house, not a guest house.

I'm going to change it to a house until we have more information.

Details about the guest_house tag are here: osm.wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dguest_house

Hi, it looks like you removed the hospital attributes from this node. Is that what you intended? If so, you could just delete the node entirely. We don't really need that GNIS information in OpenStreetMap.

Thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap! Looks like you were trying to add that stray address to the building outline. You did that correctly, but you can also delete the disconnected address node. I did that in this edit: osm.org/changeset/49873728

Now, once the map has time to refresh, we should only see one address, the one on the house itself.

In particular, the entrances to an area should be tagged on nodes that are part of the outline of that area, not as floating disconnected nodes. I tried to update the map as best I could, but you might want to check that I got the entrances in the right location. osm.org/changeset/49871026

Hello! Thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap!

In this edit you don't need to add all of those extra nodes to describe the park. The polygon for the park itself is sufficient.

According to Mapillary and a web search, there is a 12-story apartment building on this site, built quite recently. Mapillary shows that it still exists as of January of this year. It is not a park.

Please do not make any false edits to OpenStreetMap for the purpose of creating Pokemon spawn locations, if that's what you were trying to do.

Thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap! It sounds like this feature might also need the shop=copyshop tag, if you think it's appropriate. osm.wiki/Tag:shop%3Dcopyshop

Hi there, thanks for editing OpenStreetMap! Those lines are part of "relations" which describe the boundary of Kailua. So the lines themselves do not need the administrative tag. I know that relations are a fairly advanced topic in OSM, so it's understandable that it's not immediately obvious how to edit them. Most people use JOSM (the more advanced editing program) to edit relations, instead of iD (which is the editing tool embedded in the website).

But can I ask, what do you mean by a Pokemon spawning issue? Are there pokemon spawning where they shouldn't be spawning? Or are you trying to get them to spawn, where they aren't already spawning?

Thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap! I'm glad you're enjoying it!

It's a bit unusual to add address tags to a landuse feature, but I suppose it's not necessarily wrong. However, in this case it sounds like you might want to use boundary=protected_area and leisure=nature_reserve, either in addition to the landuse tag, or instead of it. Check out wiki.osm.org for more info about both of those.

Happy mapping!

That may be true, but that doesn't necessarily make it a park. If it's a park, what is its name? What government entity administers it? If it's a true park, it should be possible to answer these questions. If you can't answer them, then it's not a park, and something like landuse=grass is more appropriate. From what I can tell online, it's not officially part of the nearby Fish Creek Provincial Park.

I notice that some of the adjacent grassy parcels nearby are tagged with leisure=common. Perhaps that is a better compromise tag for areas that are not official parks, but are used like parks? (They should also probably have the landuse=grass tag in addition).

Because I don't have local knowledge here, I won't revert this change back to landuse=grass, but I encourage you and other local mappers to do some research into the correct tags for these areas.

Hi! Thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap! You can also describe what kind of store this is by using the "shop" tag. Perhaps "shop=convenience" or "shop=supermarket". See osm.wiki/Key:shop for some examples. You also might want to check out osm.wiki/Key:opening_hours for describing the hours when the business is open.

Hi there, thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap! In OSM, we map addresses using 'addr' tags, not by writing the address in the 'name' tag. I changed it for you, so you can see the proper tagging.

Hi there! Thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap!

In this case, you shouldn't add name=Home, because that's not the proper name for this place. Instead you could add something like building=house.

49680688 about 8 years ago

I'm confused, you say "updating leaf type", but this doesn't seem to be a tree. It's an address node, and there is a confusing building tag, too. Can you clarify what you intended to map with this feature?

49637019 about 8 years ago

Can you add more information about this government office? What is its name? What type of office is it?

49546728 about 8 years ago

Thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap! But in the future, if you are going to make edits in several different places in the world, can you do them as separate changesets? It makes it easier to see what happened that way.

Thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap!

In this case leisure=garden is valid tagging for a private garden. To clarify that it's not public space, you could add access=private instead of deleting it.

See: osm.wiki/Tag:leisure=garden

Hi there, thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap!

This node only has a "name" tag, but no other tags to tell us what it is. Can you give some more detail about it?

49031822 about 8 years ago

Hi! Thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap! In this case, however, you don't need to add a node for the park, because there is already a polygon that represents the whole park. A node in the middle of the park is redundant in case, so I deleted it.
