OpenStreetMap
Howdy,
I am making my first OSM contributions of the small town in Northern Arizona where I grew up. Though currently not my present residence, it is a good first place to indulge my cartographic impulses.
My interests include GIS, travel, photography, and hiking/camping, to name a few.
I currently live in The Bronx, NY.
I am Navajo.

Hi,
welcome to OSM. Just had a look at the Tuba City map, you made it a lot more useful with your first edits. One suggestion: You could tag the locally used “TC Hill” as “local_name” instead of amending the “name” field. That way it would not be displayed on the map, but could still be found when searching for the name. Or, move “Dynamite Hill” to official_name and set only “TC Hill” as “name”. Same effect, the map would only show TC Hill, but searching for Dynamite Hill would work.
Greetings from Germany, Wolfgang

Hi,
Since you are Navajo and if you know some native names of places or landmarks, you can use name:nv= tag to store them. It would be really valuable.
