The wood looks good, but it has a hole in it. We create that by creating a relation known as a multipolygon relation. If you create an outline for the hole then select the wood and the hole and merge them (from the menu when they are both selected) that will create the MP relation. You can then tag the hole area as, say landuse=grass or whatever you think is appropriate.

Welcome to OSM

You have added a playground and named it as 'Childrens Playground - Recently built' This is a common beginner's mistake, using the name tag to describe the site. If the place doesn't have a name, or you don't know it, please leave it blank.

You have added a point but it needs tags to describe what it is, a name is not enough. If it is a wall you need barrier=wall. Names usually have initial letters in capitals, especially old names.

The park looks to be imaginary. There are houses there. I will revert (undo) this edit.

Is the park really called Green Place? There is a temptation to describe things using the name tag, but we only ever use the real name for things. I know that Pokemon players think that parks need a name to help with the game, but we only want real names. :-)

Thanks for the detail.
I would suggest that Victory Fields is a recreation ground, not a park. It looks to be predominantly for sports.

When you are adding an area please don't join it up to a road. The line that marks the road is the centreline so there will always be a gap.

You have added a park over the top of all the existing stuff. This is clearly a doodle and I will revert (undo) it.

No, in English it is a piece of public land used for sports and games. The tagged space is a piece of rough ground that could not support sports and games. That may be a park, I suspect it is just grassland, it's certainly doesn't look well kept for a park.

Yes, that would be good. Try to match the footprint, the aerial images are often slanted from the camera angle. Churches (not rectangular and not an even height) can be awkward

47779608 over 8 years ago

You have added the building of church, but you have not matched the actual building, you may have matched the area around the church, but that's not the building which is what you have tagged. How do you want to sort this out?

Welcome to OSM

Thanks for the edit, but you need to describe the object you have added - a name is not enough. I suggest amenity=fast_food

You have added a park over the top of the existing one. I will delete the unnamed one

It doesn't look like a rec. There's no sports pitches laid out on it.

Welcome to OSM
I think the point you deleted for a playground was right. You have added a small area and described it as a recreation ground. A recreation ground is a large area mainly marked out with sports pitches. What you have tagged as a rec looks like a playground.

I know the tagging in OSM can be a bit confusing at first, that's why I thought you might need a heads up.

You have made a common beginner's mistake of adding a name that is really a description. The footpath is very unlikely to be called 'Path'. If it doesn't have a name (say on a name board) just leave the name blank.

47777739 over 8 years ago

Hi,
You have added a park over the top of existing stuff. This is clearly wrong. If something has changed you should change the objects not add something else over the top. I will remove the new park

Welcome to OSM

You seem to be keen to describe recreation grounds (mostly laid out a sports pitches) as parks and give them names. I'm guessing this is to attract Pokémon. New mappers are welcome, but the stuff you add or change must be real, in the right place and correctly described. Are the two recreation grounds in West Haddon really both called West Haddon Park? Is Crick Park really called that (on a name board perhaps) and is it a park or recreation ground?

Feel free to ask questions

Welcome to OSM

Thanks for the detail. You have made a common beginner's mistake and used the name tag to describe the park rather than specify its name. If it doesn't have a name leave the name blank.

Feel free to ask any questions

Welcome to OSM

You edit looks really useful. Most beginners make a few mistakes and you have too :-) You have overlaid a park and a playground. It can't be both. There may be a playground in a park in which case the playground would be smaller and probably inside the park.

Adding buildings is great. If you want to 'square them up' there is a menu button to square the corners. Don't be fooled by the aerial imagery being at an angle, Draw the footprint of the building and that usually has squared corners.
