I mapped this area during personal surveys 2016-2019. This old service road does not really connect to the main road to Taze Zaman. Please see this image: https://www.mapillary.com/app/?pKey=9QqaMu1FriaqDJQpryoapQ&focus=photo&lat=38.04731003974962&lng=58.29611658583724&z=17

This is not an embassy. It is a private firm handling visa applications for the consulate. See osm.wiki/Tag:office%3Ddiplomatic#Usage

You are right, this cannot be an embassy, the embassy is in Bogota. It is also not a consulate since the U.S. government has no consulates in Colombia, only the embassy.

Understood. I am only "armchair mapping" myself these days for obvious reasons. Could you perhaps call the consulate +39 02 2951 6360 and ask for clarification?

Can you shed any light on this "consulate of Egypt in Milan" as well? osm.org/node/5359566585 I cleaned up the tags but it is also not attested anywhere else. Many thanks. It would be unusual for any country to have multiple consular offices in one city.

Hi, thanks for checking. The official Egyptian MFA website here https://www.egyptembassy.org/location/italy/egypt-consolate-milan/ lists the address as Via Porpora 26. But I notice the Milan consulate's Facebook page lists Via timavo 17. Is the Via Porpora address obsolete (i.e., the Egyptians haven't updated their website)? Thanks for checking. I am methodically overhauling embassies and consulates so stranded expats can find help during the corona virus pandemic.

A U.S. Customs office is not an embassy. I have retagged this node.

Visto Russia is NOT an embassy. It appears to be a travel agency specializing in Russian visas. Please see osm.wiki/Tag:office%3Ddiplomatic#Usage

Это не аптека. Это больница. Аптека уже добавлена как точка. This is not a pharmacy. It is a hospital. The pharmacy has already been added as a node.

Я изменил тэг на landuse=construction. Спасибо, что отметили место сноса жилых домов и нового строительства!

Довлет, этот мавзолей уже есть на карте, не надо добавить (повторить) объект сам, надо просто добавить желаемый тэг уже существующему объекту.

THANK YOU!!! iI could not figure out what I did wrong when drawing this island.

This is not a secondary road. It is a dirt road paralleling the border with Afghanistan used only by the State Border Service of Turkmenistan to patrol the border. It should not be marked as a secondary road; it should be marked as a restricted access service road. Please make the appropriate edits. Thank you for your help with the OSM map of Turkmenistan!

I am therefore deleting the "residential area" way in Etrek that duplicates the boundary I drew some time ago.

"This tag should only be used for areas dedicated to and actually used for residential purposes. It should not be used...as additional tag for urban administrative units"

70697880 over 5 years ago

There is no need to add "residential area" ways to a municipality that has already been identified and had a boundary drawn. In fact, the wiki article expressly advises NOT to do that. Please read this: osm.wiki/Tag:landuse%3Dresidential#When_not_to_use

You are drawing "residential areas" in villages, towns, or cities that are already designated, i.e., they have boundaries drawn around them and are tagged as villages, towns, or cities. Adding "residential area" is redundant and the OSM wiki recommends not to do that. As I pointed out above, "It should not be used...
as additional tag for urban administrative units", which is exactly what you are doing.
