OpenStreetMap

Hi, everybody

Posted by TMC1358 on 29 September 2014 in English.

I started my first edits much later than my (2010) signup. What can I say, I lurk. I’ve started small. I have named some residential streets that I’m familiar with.

Next I plan on filling in names for more streets, and updating the new shopping center in west Madison.

Welcome! I also took my time before making my first edit. It was quite daunting to think my changes would affect the map for everyone, but I read all the various guides I could find and I remember seeing a quote from Wikipedia: “be bold”.

Welcome! Nothing wrong with starting small. Careful, though - it starts small, and then the mapping bug gets you.

I have just been through a very long phase of very limited contribution due to other commitments, and I am just starting to get back into the swing.
