It does not need to be approved, but takes time to render on the main map.

The editor only shows the outline of objects, that is intentional.

Hi, thank you for your response.

It is not a good idea to map things that are only planned.

You mapping was very suspicious as you have mapped multiple ponds in the same place.

I do find it difficult to believe that part of the school would have been demolished to build an extremely large pond, it is larger than most swimming pools.

Hi, welcome to OSM. Adding objects that do not exist is not helpful. In both of you changesets you have added ponds where there are buildings in reality.

I have reverted both changesets.

Thank you.

I have added a bollard to Swift Street where I could see it on Streetside.

79863987 over 5 years ago

Same issue as with previous comments.

This one has very clear imagery, Central Street is not disconnected from Swift Street, the bollards can clearly be seen on ESRI Imagery and on Bing Streetside.

You do not say what your reason for editing in the UK, but when mapping it is important to consider and break other use-cases.

Hi, this edit has gone a little wrong.

You have added a traffic calming break without considering other map users other than car users. This type of break is to discourage rat running and access for pedestrians and cyclists will always be maintained. The link is visible in Esri imagery, although it is a safe bet to assume that foot access is maintained. Can you imagine the outcry if you could no longer walk to the shop or the pub?

Hi, please keep your changes to sensible areas as continent spanning changesets, such as this, make your changes difficult to review.
Please save your changes before editing a different area.

Hi, thank you for your edit.

Looks fine to me. The road had originally been mapped as a service road, indicating it was a shared driveway rather than a public highway however if it is public highway it would be better to merge with the existing Elmwood Road.

One question, nothing to do with your edit but it has got me to look here. What is the status of Linekiln Lane, an unpaved residential road in Telford seems odd?

Hi, you have created a routable link along what is clearly a private driveway. Please add access=private.
Also barrier=yes is meaningless, first ask yourself what it is likely to be and in this situation anything other than a gate is unlikely. The gate can be seen on imagery.

Also please update you sources and imagery used to reflect what you have used on each changeset, listing everything you may use is unhelpful. You have certainly not used any of Bing Streetside;Mapillary Images;Mapillary Signs;OpenStreetCam Images on this changeset.

Fixmes tend to go unnoticed unless someone edits the node.
I have added a note and asked the mapper who added the tag.
I will revert this as a meaningless tag is less damaging than a wrong one.

Hi, I realise you mapped this a long time ago but just wondering what you meant by electrified=yes. Did you mean there is lighting, which I would expect in a train shelter or did you mean there are 13A sockets to charge your phone?
Cheers Phil

79650190 over 5 years ago

Hi
I am not sure you can make the jump from electrified=yes to power_supply=yes without a survey to check what the mapper actually meant. It could mean that there is electricity for lighting. It would be unusual to provide mains power to a socket in a train shelter as these are not usually weatherproof.
I know that electrified is an odd tag, but rather than blindly fix you could maybe add a note so that a passing mapper can survey and check or simply ask the original mapper what they meant.
Odd tags can indicate other issues, blindly fixing them based on the wiki makes these issues harder to spot.

Hi, this edit has gone a little wrong. Sea Villa is already mapped and you have created a duplicate which needs to be removed.

Maps.me is broken when it comes to hotels as it does not display what is in OSM already, you should always check with another source, such as osm,org, before adding hotels with maps.me.

Also please keep your changes to sensible areas, this should have been split into two changes.

Cheers Phil

Also wondering why you removed the tags from the building and created a separate node?

I realise its not a clinic, but it would be better to have corrected the existing tags.

Cheers Phil

Also the general history tag on osm.org. When I am looking for changes in my area I saw this changeset, which having looked at it does not affect my area.

79569444 over 5 years ago

Hi
In OSM we have a rule one real life object = one osm object. There is only one hospital here. The extra hospitals should probably be tagged as building entrances, please to not mistag for the renderer.

Hi, what is the source of these edits?

Farmland seems very odd, I cannot imagine a farmer planting crops or grazing animals on an airfield?

Cheers Phil

Hi, welcome to OSM.

Unfortunately the Travelodge is already mapped, when it comes to hotels maps.me is very broken and hides existing OSM POIs.

I am reverting this edit.

Way osm.org/way/761026742 is service, not residential also why have you put it as layer=-1?

Cheers Phil

79246837 over 5 years ago

Way 761220808 is not an unclassified road, it is at best a track leading into a field, adding it as an unclassified road shows you are not applying due diligence when reviewing.

RapiD is very poor quality, and has too many false positives to be of any use. You certainly cannot map tracks through woods using it based purely on tree cover.
