Welcome to OSM

Thanks for the detail. I wonder if the 'Closes Recreation Ground' would be better described as a recreation_ground rather than a park. There does look to be sports pitches there.

Welcome to OSM

It seems that you know a bit about OSM, but perhaps not quite enough. You have added a point over the top of an area. The area contains the pub details that you have duplicated. We have an important policy that every object is only mapped once, and the experienced mapper added the details to the area because that was the right way for that object. Doubling up the object really is not a good idea. I will revert this edit to remove the doubled up object.

Welcome to OSM

Thanks for the details, always welcome. The name you have used has two parts, with the second part a capitalised version of the first part. In OSM we use lower case for tags, except names and references which use the case the name really has. Unless the business really is called 'bike bothy;Bike Bothy' I would change the name to just 'Bike Bothy'.

We don't add postcodes to area. We only ever add postcodes to individual addresses. These can be a house or a business. To add a postcode the individual buildings can be drawn and have the postcode attached.

Adding a postcode to an area doesn't work well, as most residential areas have multiple postcodes.

Hi, you have drawn the outline of something you have named 'Woodland'. You have used a name as a description which we don't do. If the area is a woodland it needs to be tagged as natural=wood. If it has a real name then it can be added, but a lot of woodland has no name.

Thanks for the detail. It needs a little change to be more useful.
You have added a point with only a name. OSM needs a tag to know what the object is and so how to display it. I would suggest you need to add amenity=clinic as well as the name

Hope that helps

Is Ben's house really an embassy? Can we stick to facts please? :-)

Welcome to OSM

Disused premises can be marked as such. A consistent way is to change from amenity=bar to disused:amenity=bar. You may remove the name too. This will prevent it showing up on the map.

Welcome to OSM

Your parks seem a little odd. Parc Y Peggrem is clearly over the top of a house and garden.

Parc y Llew is over the top of a recreation ground, which looks a better choice of tag to me. It also has the English name in the Welsh name tag (name:cy is for Welsh). Parc y Ddraig is also over the top of an existing recreation ground.

Should the real name:cy be Parc Y Pokémon?

I will revert this edit

Welcome to OSM

You seem to have drawn a park over the top of a road. Are you sure there is a park there?

OK, I have tidied up the extra shop and relation. It may take a few minutes to appear and you may need to refresh the cache in your browser to see the change.

Welcome to OSM

I wonder if you were experimenting with the editor and save your experiment. You have changed a pet shop into an interior design shop, that's fine if you meant that, but you added another interior design shop at the same place and somehow joined them in a boundary relation which outlines cities and counties usually.

Do you need a hand tidying this up?

47019244 over 8 years ago

I think you have worried about the name not appearing and changed something that was already right. Is the whole area really a building, with a building in it? I'll try to put this right. Please be patient about the name appearing, it will.

Welcome to OSM

This looks a strange place for a waste basket. They are usually in a public place, often next to a road.

Combined with your note, is this an attempt to highlight a waste problem, such as fly tipping? If so, you could try using a reporting site like https://www.fixmystreet.com.

If this really is a waste basket, thanks. All detail is welcome

Looks good, thanks

Welcome to OSM
I see you have added Humbleton Farm, which is great. We outline the farmyard, as best we can, and ass landuse=farmyard, not place=farm. That will make it consistent with most farms in the UK on OSM

MP=multipolygon.

In the online editor you are using you select both the wood and the pond (use shift click to select the second item). Then the ring menu has a plus (+) sign which is merge. Click that. That merges the two polygons as a multipolygon, thus making the pond into a hole in the wood. It also moves the tags from the wood to the multipolygon relation as it needs to be.

A multipolygon can have many 'holes' in it, just select all the inner things and the outer thing and merge (+). In fact it can be even more complex than that, but I would use a different editor to do complex stuff.

46965544 over 8 years ago

You added the pond OK, but it is not in a 'hole' in the wood. As I said before, multipolygon editing is not as straightforward as simple editing.

To add new nodes to an existing polygon, select the polygon. click and drag one of the centre markers between two existing nodes. The marker will become a new node, which you can drag to where you want it. You can repeat this as much as you need. To delete a node select it (not the polygon) and click the bin symbol.

Would you like me to create the MP?

We generally accept most stuff, but lately there's been a lot of junk stuff added by people trying to cheat at a game that uses OSM as it's map source. It is clear now that your edits are real and useful, sorry for the skepticism.

46965544 over 8 years ago

OK, interesting.

The wood has a 'hole' in it for the pond. So it needs a similar treatment as the other lake, only this time the wood is the 'outer' and the pond is the 'inner'. Draw the pond then select both the wood and the pond and merge them from the menu.
