Looks good to me; thanks for the contribution and welcome to OpenStreetMap!

Thanks for adding these details. Only thing I'm not sure about is the names you gave to these courts. Is there a sign on each fenced-off area that labels it as "Jefferson Park Lower Courts" and such, or is that simply a name you're using to describe the upper courts?

A big element of mapping in OpenStreetMap is verifiability; that is, another mapper should be able to visit the location and see that something's name is as mapped, or that it has lighting, etc.

But thanks again for your contributions here and around Seattle, and welcome to OpenStreetMap!

Also there's a lot of non-standard tags (like `gutter:protection`) which aren't really something the community uses. Those probably should be removed unless you have good reason to keep them, as few/no data consumers will end up using such tags.

Also note that the phone number should be in format +1-xxx-xxx-xxxx so that it's in international form.

But thanks for contributing your business info. Welcome to OpenStreetMap!

Oops, looks like you accidentally moved a node in a road, I didn't catch that earlier. Reverting that node change. Thanks!

Hey, thanks for the contribution. Do you know if Mi Sueno Bodega, a convenience store mapped near here, has been replaced by the restaurant or if it still exists?

Thanks, and welcome to OpenStreetMap!

For clarity, the lifecycle prefix would be applied to the tag name, e.g. `building=house` can be replaced with `destroyed:building=house`. In the default editor, iD, you can manually change the tag name by scrolling to the bottom of the "Edit Feature" menu and updating the appropriate tag name.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks for the contribution. A more appropriate & machine-readable way of tagging this might be with a [lifecycle prefix] on the building. You can read up about these lifecycle tags on the wiki page I linked, but it sounds like `destroyed:building` would work here if the building still remains, otherwise `demolished:building` if it's been demolished since the fire but still shows up in aerial imagery.

Thanks again, and welcome to OpenStreetMap!

...because I figure it makes more "semantic" sense this way.

Thanks for the contribution.

Is this a new/renovated building? I don't see any construction in 2023 aerial imagery, and I'm not sure why such a building would be renovated to be smaller. Could you please provide additional information here? Thanks.

One other minor thing to note is that if you specify the address on the building itself, you can remove the address point/node, because otherwise the point becomes redundant. (A helpful trick to make this easier: in the default iD editor, you can shift-select a building and its corresponding address point, then hit C (or right-click > "merge") to automatically copy the address to the building.)

Thanks again for contributing, and welcome to OpenStreetMap! Please leave a message here if you have any questions!

Thank you, sorry for maybe overreacting! 😀

Happy mapping!

@Great Carmania Silver City, thanks for the contribution and welcome to OpenStreetMap. To add your business, you should create a separate "point" (node) at the business location, and then add your business info to that node. Feel free to add a comment here if you have any questions.

Hello user_5359,

Could you explain why you merged these locations? You seem to have appended a lot of information with semicolons, are these the same business? Please cite your source using the source tag, and use a descriptive changeset comment.

Thanks!

Thanks for the contribution and welcome to OpenStreetMap. I saw that this is your first edit and had a couple things to note.

First, is this the correct location? I see two industrial buildings closer to the road than you marked, are these the elevator company? It's difficult to tell because of the tree cover, but I don't see any buildings in the location you marked.

Second, note that the `image` tag is meant for a photo of the building or feature itself, not the logo of the business. As such I removed the image tag.

Finally, I updated the phone number you added to use the phone number format specified in the official wiki: osm.wiki/Key:phone#Usage

OpenStreetMap definitely has a bit of a learning curve to it, but I'm glad you're making contributions. Thanks again and happy mapping!

Hello and welcome to OpenStreetMap!

I was reviewing your changeset and I noticed that you only wrote "-" in the changeset comment field. In the future, please do use meaningful changeset comments-- as “-” does not help other mappers understand what you are doing.

Please see osm.wiki/Good_changeset_comments for more information.

I also noticed a few minor issues with the format of the information you added, for example the opening hours have a specific machine readable format they're required to be in. I fixed these for you; you can see my changes at osm.org/changeset/167895725.

Thanks again for the contribution!

Thank you for the contribution. I noticed a couple things while reviewing your first changeset.

First, it looks like you accidentally removed the highway tag from a segment of E Portland Ave. This was causing data consumers to not know this was a road. I added the `highway=secondary` tag back for you.

Second, the street name in the address you added didn't quite match the name the street is tagged with (East Portland Avenue). It's important to spell out the full street name (including abbreviations) so that computers can understand street names. I also fixed this for you.

But these are both easy mistakes to make as a beginner. OpenStreetMap has a kind of learning curve to it.

Thanks again and welcome!

Okay, thanks for the info. They both link to the same Facebook, so I was wondering if these two associated shops are different.
