The road you have added is a service road (highway=service)

We do not tag for a satnav, we tag facts. If the satnav is wrong then the way it uses OSM data should be changed. This is a fundamental principal of OSM. The satnav I use (with OSM data in it) display farms as I have described perfectly.

No. In OSM in the UK a pedestrian street is a vehicle road that has been closed to traffic and is only now open to pedestrian. An example would be King Edward street in Hull or Prestongate in Hessle. The paths you added are not wide enough for a vehicle, so a highway= footway not a highway=pedestrian.

The roadway to the North looks like a service road to me. If it really is a residential road it needs a name. The extension you have added to Cedar Close is too long, it should not include private driveways. It also needs a name.

You are not adding names to residential road extensions. You are extending the residential roads into private driveways.

In this edit you seem to have extended the residential road into private driveways. A turning circle might be a better solution, though I would need to survey to check.

The 'Y' ending to the road is good to add, but I believe you have made it too long, including some shared driveways at each end which are not part of the residential road.

It would help if you used a bit more expressive changeset comments. Repeating the same one ("Road") is not helpful for reviews and won't help you much if you look back at your edits. It is very helpful that you make small changes in each changeset, especially as you start out.

If this is a residential road (it could be) it needs the name adding too. Residentail roads almost always have a name in England. In this case I would expect to be The Birches.

I think one of the legs you have added is too long as it include the private driveway of a house. Showing the two legs is a good idea.

You have added a building and added a name field to it. We use name=* to add a business name (such as a shop name) not the address name. For that we use addr:housename=*.

If Willow Garth is a farm (I'd need to visit to check) we do it differently as a farm often has multiple buildings. If that case we draw the outline of the farmyard, tag it as landuse=farmyard and add the name=* to the farmyard, not individual buildings.

I don't believe that in OSM the road you have added is a residential road, I believe it is a service road (highway=service).

We always add farm names to the landuse area, not individual buildings, unless the building has a name different to the farm. Postcodes need to be structured correctly, i.e. with a space in the right place.

The short spurs off Brazill St. are footways. They are not pedestrian. What are the names? Have you visited the site? Please don't add pedestrian to this kind of way.

38871109 over 9 years ago

I have reverted this edit. The footpaths are not pedestrian roads. Please don't make any more changes like this without discussing it first. The revert is changeset 38956065

38871567 over 9 years ago

Are you sure that is a residential road? Have you visited it to confirm this? It looked to me to be an access road similar to a shared driveway. that would be a service road in OSM.

I've changed the Saddle Room Cottage to be tagged as usual. I've added the tags to the building, but adding to a node is fine, especially when a building has more than one premise in it. The node you added is now duplicated (sort of) by my edit, so that needs sorting out by some means.

38920075 over 9 years ago

The name of the farm is always added to the landuse area (the browny area), not any of the buildings in the farmyard.

38920161 over 9 years ago

There has been some discussion recently about phone boxes that have no phones in them. Is this used for anything else, e.g. a tiny library, or tourist info point? If there's no phone then it is not amenity=telephone.

This edit, even though it is small, has changed the character of the junction, making it incorrect. I will revert this edit.

Please stop making remote armchair edits like this. Is your motivation to increase your edit count? Do you get paid per edit?

I feel it would be better to add a note asking a local mapper to survey the site.
