Unfortunately that would be a matter of opinion then. When using the tool, I can see if the building outline looks correct and then add it accordingly, which doesn't take months to figure out in my opinion. If a building isn't outlined properly I either attempt to realign it myself or don't add it altogether. Once again however, with satellite variation, blockages (trees etc), there may not be a perfect solution to a building's outline. A general outline or an outline that appears close enough to the real building is generally accepted versus missing information.

osm.wiki/RapiD
Considering that RapiD appears to be a formally accepted import tool by the OSM community it would appear that it falls under these guidelines. The main ask of this tool is to review the information being added, which I believe I do. But such as any editing situation, there can be human error as well as satellite variation where certain areas may be more difficult to map that others. So if you happen to find an error that someone (or I) have missed, you’re welcome to help contribute a fix to that.

Render users like Snapchat, Pokemon Go, and travel apps show missing information for that label. Must be something on Mapbox's end that needs to be fixed.

Unfortunately to OSM standards that would be considered vandalism since you're removing sourced information and aren't replacing it. Probably not the best idea.

For whatever reason any buildings classified as "Apartment Building" don't appear in renders that use OSM. Replacing them with a point or an area zone to retain the information of the building would be preferred.

As a fellow contributor you're welcome to make any changes you feel are necessary. Thanks!

Hey there, I seemingly removed these items because they had no valid satellite or website references. I'd be happy to restore them with a valid reference. Thank you!

Based on the area you’re denoting it looks like the building errors are very insignificant to the locale. This doesn’t seem to be any cause for alarm or any interference with core features. While using RapiD I try my best to phase out any errors I see, but may not be able to catch all of them. As a fellow mapper who seems to be very dedicated to small details of the map, I highly encourage you to fix anything you see unfit. Happy mapping!

With RapiD there can potentially be some very small mistakes such as building grouping that you’ve pointed out due to varying proximities and satellite imagery. As a fellow contributor you are more than welcome to edit the map to fix anything you see unfit. Thank you!

They are technically foot & cycle paths yes.

No, it appears I was misusing the formatting of the road based on an inaccurate map. This change needs to be reverted.
