When adding building names, it helps if you also add the buildings, or at least indicate that the points you're adding *are* buildings. I've traced three of them, but Delta Delta Delta and Delta Sigma Phi don't clearly correspond to buildings.

I'm not sure how you'd do it in iD (the website editor). The standalone JOSM editor has a "reverter" plugin you can use for easy rollback of changesets: osm.wiki/JOSM/Plugins/Reverter

Has US-97 really been upgraded to the "almost-Interstate" quality implied by "highway=trunk"? Looking at the aerial imagery, I'm not seeing most of the features I'd expect from a trunk road: four or more lanes, a median or median barrier, no intersecting driveways and few intersecting roads.

Please don't use "access=no" for brief construction closures. Most data users update no more often than once a month -- this road was open again by the time I got there, but OsmAnd had picked up your closure and refused to route to the parking lot.

Where did you get the name "South H Street" from? The name fits the pattern for the area, but I drove that road a couple months back and couldn't find a street sign anywhere.

Not all arterials are primary roads. This one, in particular, is a winding two-lane road with a significant height restriction that is unlikely to ever see much traffic.

Thanks. I've improved the tracing of the Cambell House, and added a separate outline for the carriage house.

The building outline you drew for the Cambell House appears to cover two buildings. Which one is the actual Cambell House?

I've reverted this changeset: it appears to be personal bookmarks rather than an attempt to improve the map.

Is Fifth Street really one-way over its entire length, or did you forget to split the way where it divides in two?

In several of your recent edits, you've forgotten to add tags to what you've drawn, and you've added roads that cross other roads without connecting.

A bare line that doesn't indicate what sort of thing it represents isn't very useful, and won't show up on the map. A road that isn't connected (indicated by a gray dot at the point of intersection) isn't useful for routing. I've fixed the problems I've seen, but could you be more careful in the future?

I don't know of any. Adding an additional "access:conditional=no @ winter" would express the seasonal closure without interfering with normal routing, but I don't know of any software that uses the "access:conditional" tag, and it doesn't cover the fact that the gate can be closed for other reasons (eg. a freak snowstorm in August).

When you add a normally-open gate to a road, it's important to add access information. Routing software is inconsistent about how it treats a gate with no information: some software defaults to "yes", while other software defaults to "no".

I'm pretty sure this rest area is already mapped, about a half-mile north of where you've put it.

50070748 over 8 years ago

Did you forget to put a name on the locality you added (node/4953767238)?

49878427 over 8 years ago

Something went badly wrong with this edit -- you appear to have re-used a node from Indonesia for your waterfall. I've reverted it.

Is there a reason why you're calling Friday Avenue/River Street through Mullan a "primary road"? I drove it last Saturday, and it's a very minor road through a very minor town -- the general feel I got was that it should be classified as "tertiary". It's a narrow low-speed two-lane road lined mostly by houses, going from not much of anywhere to not much of anywhere.

Are you sure about the non-existence of Humbert Airport? The DigitalGlobe Standard imagery (the newest available for this area) shows a line of ground parallel to the nearby field with a worn look to it, and a structure at the north end of that line that could be a hangar.

Keeping the number of changesets down is okay, as long as the changes are grouped into a small geographic area. "Cleaned up all the old airports in Pike County" is fine; "cleaned up a hundred old airports scattered around the United States" isn't. Unfortunately, Maproulette gives you the latter.

Best practice for indicating a business is closed is to prefix the "shop" tag with "disused:" (for example, "disused:shop=doityourself"), and to do the same with the "name" tag if the signs have been removed. If the signs are still there, leaving the "name" tag alone means that people can still use the building as a landmark for navigation.

What you've done will be interpreted by computers as meaning there's a do-it-yourself business there by the name of "Vacant".
