Hi,
When I asked you before to not do certain types of edits. What I ment was to not do those edits even temporarily. OSM is not a sandbox for playing around. If you need certain changes of data for yourself, please save those locally to your computer and not to our live database.

changeset/190811603

Hi,
here you created duplicate golf course outline and duplicated some of the holes as well.

Hi,
there are several problems with your edits:

1. You deleted objects e.g. fairways that you then redraw.
The correct way is to adjust nodes of the existing polygon.

2. You made Fairways to include Green inside them.
The correct way is to create a multipolygon with Green serving as inner member.

3. Created Forest polygons around individual trees.
The correct ways is to place a node with natural=tree tag.

4. You drew forest polygons surrounding the Golf course that abruptly end after short distance.
The correct way is to draw the polygon around the whole forest area.

More about problematic gold course mapping can be found here:

leisure=golf_course#Common_mapping_pitfalls

> "I honestly don't want any of this on the map"

In that case it's best to contact the map provider directly with your request.

The correct way is to add access=private or access=no tag on the individual trails and roads. App then either don't include these roads or mark them as inaccessible.

Hi,
please don't delete correct data even if is privately owned.

Cheers

Hi, since you are changing road classification in CT it would be good to reach out and discuss it with jnighan (@jnighan) who drafted highway classification.

Hi, our policy is that if something exists in real world, we include it in our data. This looks like a property access road, which we call driveway.
There is now a tag access=no, which should give any driver information that entry is not permitted.

Thanks, not sure how that happened.

All deleted cameras were restored. Please refrain from further objects deletions.

Hi,
Is there any reason for deleting all those cameras?

Hi and welcome to OSM!

Looking at this I see that town of Westport boundary is still more to the south and all the surrounding addresses belong to Wilton. Are you sure that this changes is correct?

Cheers

Hi and welcome to OSM!

The problem with your edit is that you applied speed limit to the whole US route 9. We add speed limit to individual road segments instead.

I went ahead and removed the speed limit. But feel free to fill in speed limits for roads that you know.
Cheers

Hi,
as I mentioned, there was a prior discussion about this and the community thinks that a label "private road" does not indicate access restriction.
Culturally, it could mean that some people would try to avoid accessing such property, but legally it is not prohibited to do so. A gate or a "no trespassing" sign is a clear indication that access is unwanted and is a basis for legal consequences.

Hi Tad,
in this case fairway, rough, etc. tags don't go directly on the areas, because there are other objects inside (bunkers, greens,..). For such cases we use multipolygons.

see:
leisure=golf_course#Common_mapping_pitfalls

Fixing a code issue, does not mean you can add random things to OSM database. You can keep your "reference notes" locally in you browser cash without uploading to live data.

Of course you are welcome to edit OSM, but your contributions need to be meaningful and high quality.

* In you past edits I saw that you added website links to google Maps. That is not allowed.

* You added descriptive house numbers ("positioned between 7th Street and Kenilworth Avenue"). This is not helpful to OSM.

* Or you added just summarizing description when all that information is already in OSM. description=Circle K (petrol pump) besids 7th street - This is again low quality edit.

I suggest you take a walkthrough tutorial offered by iD editor, read our documentation on wiki.openstreetmap.org
And if you need help don't hesitate to reach community at https://community.openstreetmap.org/

Cheers

I don't know what you are doing, but you can't be adding some private notes into live OSM data.

Hi and welcome to OSM!
When adding a business or POI, it has to be placed exactly where its office physically reside ideally with filled in address.
Cheers

Hi and thanks for editing OSM!
Just in this case this is not correct. "Park" in OSM is considered as public area with maintained greenery and used for leisure activities.
You can read more about the description here: leisure=park

Cheers

Hi and welcome to OSM!
Your edits are good, but just a couple of comments.

- landuse=* tag goes on areas that cover some land and not on the buildings themselves. E.g. if it's a residential area it encompasses buildings, parking lots, parks,..

- when you are finished drawing a building you can press Q to make it's angles 90˚

I went ahead and removed the landuse tag from those buildings.

Cheers
