Hi, curious how you know the name of this island? I haven't seen it on other maps of the river and when I search online the references are to an island in Panama (or this data). Thanks!

Hi, question on Lake Harriet Parkway and this is just the last changeset to touch it. If the park is just the parkway surrounding the lake, should the lake be used as an inner relation for it? This would be similar to how it's done for Bde Maka Ska, although not others like Lake Nokomis. (Noticed because the label displayed is for the park not the lake)

Hi I don't remember exactly what my edit was about here, but if you check the history all those tags on these features were originally from this changeset: osm.org/changeset/15167068

I understand the court ruling, but according to OSM's on-the-ground rule, Bde Maka Ska is the signage and thus should remain. Lake Calhoun has been listed as an alt_name.

Hi, welcome to OSM and thanks for mapping golf course features! I'd like to suggest a couple improvements to what you've done--you can read more at the Golf wiki page: osm.wiki/Golf The golf=fairway tag should be used only for the mown area between the tee and the green. The tee area (golf=tee) and green (golf=green) should be drawn and tagged separately. Information on the hole (especially par=* and ref=* for the hole #) is usually kept on a way tagged golf=hole that goes from the tee area to the green. Name is only used if the hole has a specific name (ie "The Bear Trap" or "Amen Corner"). Lastly, adding landuse=grass is discouraged because it is technically incorrect, and people usually just add it in order to make features renders on the main OSM map. The French OSM map renders more of these features, ie http://tile.openstreetmap.fr/?zoom=16&lat=48.72648&lon=2.60806 Thanks again, and happy mapping!

That makes sense, but then the other tag should also be changed to end up with highway=residential so it'll render, be used for routing, etc. Looks like rrkum has done that now. Cheers!

Thanks for your work updating boundaries. Would you mind including a more specific source link though? The Geospatial Commons has hundreds of datasets.

Hi, I was just curious if there was a reason why you deleted these address points? Usually data is only removed if it is incorrect or was based on a source that's not compatible with OSM's licensing.

Hi, I'm confused why you deleted the highway=construction tags on the roads under construction north of 5th St? According to the wiki, that tag should be combined with construction=residential until construction has been completed

Quick question, is the leisure=fitness in the old factory off Alfreton Rd to the southwest supposed to be fitness_centre instead? Thanks

Hi and welcome to OpenStreetMap. Thanks for adding detail to parks in the area. One tip going forward: don't use the name key to describe things or where they are. (see osm.wiki/Good_practice#Don.27t_use_name_tag_to_describe_things) For example, basketball courts and short trails in parks are rarely named, so you shouldn't include a name for them in OSM, just tag what they are (eg highway=footway). The fact that they're inside the park boundary is indication enough that they are part of the park. Thanks and happy mapping!

Just an FYI, I changed the spelling for two places you tagged from fitness_center to fitness_centre

Thanks for adding to OSM in this area. In the future it'd be nice if you could give something more descriptive and unique for your changeset comments. Happy mapping!

Hi and welcome to OSM. It will really help if you add information about what this business is in the tags. I'm guessing amenity=restaurant, cuisine=mexican would be appropriate? ;)

Hi, curious why you changed the elevators to "fitness station"? If you want to indicate the location of stairs, there is a way to do that, but unless they are specifically there for fitness purposes, I don't think they should use the fitness tag. And by removing the elevator tag, you have made the map less informative.

Hi, I noticed you adding some trees and related information. Wanted to make sure you saw you can use the species key for trees too. species=* is for the Latin name, but you can use species:en=* for the common name. See osm.wiki/Key:species Happy mapping!

Hi, I am a MN mapper and noticed your recent edits. Can you please add some detail to your changeset comments, so they don't all just say "UPDATE"? Here are some tips: osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments Thanks and happy mapping!

60474658 about 7 years ago

Welcome to OSM and thanks for adding so much to the area! One detail to remember (as I've seen another user follow up on your edits and do this) is to make sure all streets/alleys/sidewalks connect with a node where they meet. Thanks and happy mapping!

Hi and welcome to OpenStreetMap! I am a local mapper, and was curious about this name. I found a link to your GoFundMe, which looks cool. However, I am not clear that means the island is renamed. Maybe it would make more sense to use that name on an area with the leisure=nature_reserve or landuse=farmland tags instead?

Welcome and thanks for adding to OpenStreetMap! One tip for buildings with 90 degree corners is to use the "Square" tool after tracing. In iD, click on the feature then press S, or instead right-click and select the Square tool. Happy mapping!
