Is there really a hospital in the Cheney Fire Department building?

The "name" field should only be used for the actual name of something. What sort of thing it is is indicated by tags such as "commercial area".

I've reverted this change. As best I can tell, the "park" is a vacant lot and the footway doesn't exist. Further, the change messed up the data for bus route #160 by adding the vacant lot to it.

Is there a reason why you think that the Centennial Trail is better classified as a footway than as a cycleway? Sure, it probably sees more foot traffic than bicycle traffic, but it's advertised as a cycle route, marked as a cycle route, and everyone knows it as a cycle route.

If you put the address in the address field rather than the name field, route-finding software can use it when users enter it as their destination.

Are you sure about the park you added just north of the cemetery? It looks to me like it's just somebody's house.

The "name" field should only be used for actual names. Attributes such as "this is a sidewalk" are indicated by appropriate tagging.

A "Code Blue Emergency Station" sounds like it should be tagged as an "emergency phone" (emergency=phone). Is this correct?

Cheney Community Church is mapped twice here, once as a node with an address of 205 Pine Street, and once as a building with an address of 1307 3rd Street. Which one is correct?

Please only map things that actually exist.

I don't know if the watercourse you've modified is better mapped as a "stream" or a "ditch", but I'm confident enough that there isn't a meadow, a pond, a lake, or a Reformed Zoroastrian temple at the intersection of Third and Roosevelt that I've deleted them. I've also deleted the meadow in the parking lot of the Palouse Mall.

Is there an actual park here? On the aerial imagery, it looks like it's just a vacant lot.

You appear to have re-named the United States in this changeset. Consequently, I've reverted it.

You've mapped a long section of Radar Creek as a bridge here. Is this accurate (an extended boardwalk or similar), or an error?

Upon further investigation, that building is Spokane County Fire District 10's station #3. I've updated the map.

The node in question was from the GNIS import, a data source almost as problematic as TIGER, but less well-known. Looking at the associated record in the GNIS website, it was added to the GNIS database in 1979, based on the 1973 Deep Creek topo map.

The building was added by "kerseykyle", a prolific editor who's been the source of a good deal of questionable data in the Inland Northwest area.

Are you sure about "Indian Prairie School"? Aerial imagery shows something that looks more garage-like than school-like, none of the local school districts has an "Indian Prairie School", and I can't find anything about it on the web.

Thanks -- that seems like the best solution.

The JOSM editor (https://josm.openstreetmap.de/) lets you set up tag presets to apply as many tags as you want in one action, but it's got its own steep learning curve.

Thanks for adding to the map!

A tip for better mapping: if a path meets a road, make sure the two are connected (the connection will show up as a grey dot in the editor). This lets routing software know that it's possible to get from one to the other, and use the path when finding walking directions.

Besides, in my experience, Google often gets park boundaries spectacularly wrong.

Bing, Mapbox, and USGS imagery all have "X"s at the ends of the runway, indicating long-term closure. The FAA master record for the airport (http://www.gcr1.com/5010ReportRouter/default.aspx?airportID=ILN) also notes that runway 4R/22L is closed "until further notice".

It's probably better to map the runway with the appropriate lifecycle prefix (osm.wiki/Lifecycle_prefix), but for the purposes of flying, the runway doesn't exist.
