Hi Chris,
No problem, I though it best to revert your changes rather than ask you to remedy them. We can all make mistakes with new things.

The easiest way to edit OSM is with either an online editor (iDeditor) or offline with JOSM. So do you have access to a PC? Failing that why not make a single change, add one path and I'll have a look. Also if you have a GPS trace can you upload that to OSM? I'll then be able to see it. You can message me direct by clicking on my name @BCNorwich

Regards Bernard.

Hello, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

Sorry to have to say there are many problems with the changes you've made.
You managed to delete several footpaths and drag a few out of alignment. You also dragged the camp site out of alignment.

I think you were trying to add paths or tracks in the woods but you failed to tag any of them. Further some are unjoined crossings, some fail to join, some cross over waterway without determining how (ford or bridge).

As it's likely you'll not see this comment I've reverted the changeset. For info that's with my Changeset: 84132468

Please try again to add the paths, if you need help please just ask.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

I've reverted your changeset to reinstate the highways you deleted. I then amended the tagging to highways.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
Not really enough address to navigate to or find the apartments. Are those hotels? Also, you've placed one in the middle of a road which can't be right.

Is there a dam there? The water flows south so a dam would have water to the north which it doesn't. The waterway exits a tunnel here.

Removed fictional parks

Regarding way Stink Pipe (7443811262, v1). This is actually a vent pipe for the sewerage system and is quite likely still in use. Are your tags historic=monument and name=Stink Pipe correct and verifiable and from whence does the verifiability come?. The name is likely fiction and unless the object is listed it's not likely to be regarded as historical.

Hi, regarding Way: 795840159 (New River Path). The path you have drawn is not historic nor heritage, from the website you quote the way is a new footpath. The New River itself is a heritage/historic feature. Your line looks like it is a duplicate or triplicate of other ways on this line. Could you please rectify this?
Thanks Bernard.

Hi, your hydrant tagging indicates an above ground physical hydrant, I don't think this is the case here in the UK. What is probably there is a sluice valve that can be used by the fire brigade to erect a hydrant. If this is the case you could add the tag fire_hydrant:type=underground.

I've removed the 80 fictional parks.

Regarding the paths, your new pedestrian way Way: 795845600 runs by and joins to an existing footway Way: 294405002, are there two paths? Or maybe three, if your New River Path (Way: 795840159) is supposed to be a path. Are there really three verifiable ways here that can be seen or ascertained on the ground?

Could you please have a look at resolving these problems.

Regards Bernard.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
A few anomalies I can see.

First your waterway Way: 795767125 looks like it duplicates the existing waterway Way: New River (22588507), and is there really a dam (Node: 7443875485) before the tunnel (Way: New River (109624838))? You've also drawn a waterway bank (Way: 795758140) but tagged it incorrectly natural=water
water=river. You've also connected the bank to the your new and the existing canal centreline.

Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
There's guidance for mapping a park here :-leisure=park
Generally the overall outline is drawn and tagged as leisure=park. Individual areas within the park can be drawn tagged surface=grass, or whatever.

Hi,
Welcome to OpenStreetMap.
There's a best practice for tagging schools set out here :-amenity=school I've re-tagged the school building to suit.
I also squared up the buildings.
Very good first session of mapping.

Hi, the school name is on the overall premises outline, I've tagged the three buildings as building=school.
Regards Bernard.

Placed tags from POI onto building.

84016378 over 5 years ago

Esri imagery shows this as a pair of houses, thus I've removed the number and tagged as building=residential.
Regards Bernard.

Remove one building that's not there, square up building and add tags from nearby POI

Hi Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

I changed the tag from landuse=farmyard to landuse=farmland. Moved to farm POI to the buildings.

Regards Bernard.
