Hi, Welcome to OpenStreetMap. It's allways great to see new users coming along and helping to improve the map.

I do have a question regarding the addition of a park behind what looks like houses here: way/469624484

I think thius should be tagged as a private garden?

Hi - I was wondering the same thing!

HI - I just wanted to say Welcome to OpenStreetMap, it's always great to see new users joining up and contributing.

I do have a few small comments. The first is regarding use of landuse=residential - in Edinburgh we tend not to use this. Especially as we roll out more detailed building and garden mapping.

The second is the addition of the waterway=drain under the buildings, just wondering why you were adding this?

We have quite an active local community and regular meetups, see here for details: osm.wiki/Edinburgh

Hi Welcome to OpenStreetMap - it looks to me like you were trying to add the field next to the school. You added the square but then never gave it any tags. What should it be?

Please let me know if you have any questions?

Sorry I've just seen that you did that. Cheers!

I think this would be better as a neighbourhood rather than an area?

Look great - I was going query the access tags.

Brilliant - thanks for getting back to us. This does look like it agrees with the aerial imagery a woody area separated by open ground and a tree lines path.

Welcome to OSM, we have quite an active community in Edinburgh so let me know if you have any questions.

HI - first of all, can I just say welcome to OpenStreetMap - it's really great to have you and thanks for the edit.

I do have a few question, the first is that I just want to check what is the source of the Edits?

Secondsly, I noticed that you removed the building on the North side of the site, is this due to the building being the wrong shape or is there actually no building there? (From my memory there is something there?)

Finally let me know if you have any questions about OpenStreetMap.

Cheers
Chris

Hi, thanks for adding this shelter to OpenStreetMap - I'm just trying to get a bit more context about what it is, for example is it a bus shelter or something else?

So the Jamie's Italian website for Edinburgh says that it's on George Street. BUT the entrace/menuboard is on Rose Street. It may be possible to enter from the George Street side though.

So in conclusion - I think that the address should remain on Rose Street,

It's worth noting that approved tags do not hold absolute authority. We should tag things with the most appropriate tag, and then push for that tag to be accepted, as one of the considerations when "accepting" tags is the current usage
of the tag...

I'm happy with that change. I only noticed the wall was tagged when I was closing some maps.me notes....

Thanks - I might put a note on the map for someone to confirm the exact location. There is a door currently labelled as 28 that I think goes to the upstairs properties.

Also I'm not sure if amenity=school is the correct tagging, as school normally indicates formal 5 to 18 education.

Do you know exactly where the Edinburgh one is. The address given currently has a branch of Sally hairdressers, which there website indicates is still open. Is it inside that properly or somewhere else nearby?

https://www.nordicvisitor.com/contact-us/ indicates that the Nordic Visitor Centre is at 16 Young Street and not 22?

There is the option of tagging, natural=ridge (not currently rendered) - also natural=bare_rock (but possibly not the whole of this area). Overall I can't see a big problem with using locality here.

I'm struggling to see the point of this "fix". Also it's bad form to delete and recreate a way (loosing the history) just to add a small "kink" into the road that I don't believe exists on the ground?

I'm not sure that this makes sense. Removing the neighbourhood node and adding the Holy Corner - name to the node as part of the junction?

Also there wasn't anything wrong with the Church Hill node?
