Hi Rob,
welcome to OSM! Good way to start the year with a contribution to open source projects. :)I see you requested a review for the edit you made, so I had a look into it.
You adjusted the shape of the building and there are three things that could be done a bit better here:
1. You deleted the existing buildings and added new ones. Unless it's a completely newly built building that replaces one that was torn down, it's better to just change the existing building to keep the history of that object.
2. The creation of the new buildings made what OSM calls a "multipolygon". This is only needed for complex building shapes (e.g. a building with a hole in the middle).
3. The building you created is not "squared", meaning the walls are not at 90 degree angles.I'll do a quick revert on the changes and see if I can walk you through how to do the change easily while keeping the history of the object and making the angles straight, I'll write again in a bit.
All the best,
Paul -

The data is now again in the state from before your change. Here are some steps on how to most easily make the change you want:
1. To adjust the shapes, drag the points of each existing shape to where they need to be. To merge to points, simply drag one onto another.
2. Once that's done, you can select multiple buildings by holding the shift key and clicking on them. Then hit the "Q" key, that makes all the angles 90 degrees.
(Many of the buildings in this area don't have 90 degree angles because they come from an import of government data with "imperfect" shapes.)
3. Now select the building that your business is in and add the business data as you did. It's also good to add the website and phone number if the business has these.As a general hint, hitting the "W" key changes the the display mode of the objects, making it easier to see details in the imagery.
Hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions!
Happy mapping,

Thanks Paul!!!
I tried to do what you kindly suggested.
Many of the buildings here have angles that are not at 90° because of the ditch.
If you have time, please check it again.
In the next few days I will try to separate the parking lot from the building. There is more or less 5 meters of distance between the two
Many Thanks Again! Grazie Mille!
Have a Nice Day!

Ciao Roberto,
it looks perfect now, thanks!
To separate the parking lot from the building, click on the points that they share (they show up grey instead of white), then right-click on that point and select "disconnect". Then you can move the points that mark the parking area independently from the building points.
Have a nice day, too, and buona mappatura!
Paul
