OpenStreetMap
Added Albertson's supermarket near the Soquel Canyon Pkwy Exit on CA-71. I did not find a space to enter phone numbers, though. My guess is there must be one but I could not find it. Will try another time.
Also added a cellphone communication tower on a hill on the back of Albertson's.
The high voltage power transmission line near these places has been rerouted by Southern California Edison. But how can I locate the new line on the map and make an edit?

Nice edits, welcome to OSM.
To add a 'phone number, select the advanced edit option (at the bottom of the left hand panel) and the tags associated with the object are displayed. Just add a new tag with key "phone" and put the phone number in the value field. As OSM allows free-format tagging, the editor only supports a limited subset of the more popular values.
To realign the power-line you'll have to a ground survey: this need be nothing more than notes on a sheet of paper as to where the powerline now runs. Finding where it crosses streets is the easiest way. I imagine it would be useful to use other landmarks (prominent buildings etc) to help fix the alignment. Walking papers provide a facility for printing out OSM maps or Bing aerial imagery which are designed for this kind of data recording.
Aerial imagery is always out-of-date to some extent: one of the powerful things about OSM is that one can create maps of one's own neighbourhood which are much more up-to-date than other sources. This might be the re-routed powerline, the new housing division, a major road realignment, or just a nice new pub or restaurant.

Other tags similar to phone that are (or could be useful) for commercial, retail buildings

If somebody modifies the renderer for example one could click on a hotel and go to their website, or perhaps phone them directly to set up reservations.
