great stuff

Back in Newton Mearns

looks good, you have done some good work there. I put the address into a node in the building where the door is, also means you can add access private or public, wheelchair access yes no, even stairs yes no,

State of the Map Scotland

Building with two different names. How to solve

I have came across this a few time, also buildings in one street with the entrance from another street, I would tag the building as the Palazzo Pamphilji and the embassy as an Address node in this building, as an entrance. access=public entrance=door addr:housename=Brazillian Embassy this can even be in the buildings outline to show exactly where their door is. even can add wheelchair=yes/ or no

Road that is mostly under water

here is a link to see theTour de France Crossing the road that day I was there.

Road that is mostly under water

I have drove on this road its a tidal causeway. causeway=yes, access=tidal, lit=no highway=unclassified, but highway=track + tracktype=grade1 maybe be the best way to tag the road type.

Alone in the desert?!?

I have done a few edits over the years, its a much better map than when I first looked at the area, will be back again in next year or so I hope.

Automatic POI->Building?

dont like this, the POI is that, a point not always the full building, we should try to put the tag on the entrance node to the building that the POI belongs to, as buildings can have multiple POI and can span more than one street/road, and also lets tag such as wheelchair=yes, access=yes/no be used. I know its easy just to dump all the address tags of POI in the building outline , but I think the entrance node way works better.
