I am new here and i must say "wow", sounds like a revolution is going on and I can be part of it! Can someone who reads this, please check the Roads i just submitted around my area? How do add a Kinderspielplatz (childrenplayground)? I think a might spend some Money on a GPS Tracker, anyone a advise? Do I have to spent a lot of money?

Welcome aboard!
Garmin units are apparently getting cheaper in the UK right now - hopefully on the continent too - and by all accounts they work well. You'll find reviews in the Wiki of various different kinds of device. It's worth paying a bit extra for one with a 'good' (obtains its lock speedily; higher memory capacity; accurate; keeps its lock; waterproof?) GPS unit.
A children's playground should probably be tagged leisure=playground. Check the Map_Features page for the exhaustive list.

Without your location, it is hard to check your work.

Hi dreckbolle (what a name ;-))
I use the following tracker: Wintech WBT-201.
It´s not cheap very small and easy to use.
But it´s a Bluetooth-Mouse and a tracker only whithout display or something!

Yes, I'm using a WBT.201, too. It does the job.
