Hello Adaobi Okoye, and welcome to OpenStreetMap!
Twice now you’ve tried to add what appears to be spam to OSM as a node in the middle of the piazza to the west of the old Covent Garden market. There clearly isn’t anything there.
If the thing that you are trying to map is a physical shop that people can actually visit, then please do map it at the correct location as a shop, not some distance away as something else. If there’s no shop, but there is an office visible from the street located somewhere then please map that office. If there isn’t, and it only exists on the web then please don’t add it to OpenStreetMap since it has no place there.
I’ve sent this message as one that you have to read before continuing to edit, but OpenStreetMap is not a business directory - you’re welcome to add real things that really exist to it but it’s not a place for general business listings, especially spammy ones line osm.org/node/5294978080/history . If you’ve got any questions please email data@osmfoundation.org.
Best Regards,
Andy Townsend, on behalf of OSM’s Data Working Group.
