Hello. Thanks for mapping.
Please connect highways to each other to achieve a network. GPS driven nav systems cannot coop with gaps in roads.

Hello. Thanks for mapping.
Please connect highways to each other, where it is logic, to achieve a network.

Hello. Thanks for mapping on this project.
One of the validator jobs is to reviews the taggings of highways . Experience learns that traces of highways are regularly wrong tagged.

How to decide when a trace is a path or an unclassified highway (main choices in rural areas)
First, look what they connect. Houses, settlements, villages. Then measure the width of that trace.

In iDeditor

Shortcut : Ctrl+⇧ Shift+M – toggle opens measurement panel
Draw a line between the shoulders of a trace (zoom in very far) and read the distance.
If a trace is max 2 meters wide, tag it as a path. Use footway only in urban (town) areas.
Wider and connect hamlets, houses and villages should be tagged as unclassified.
Tag residential in urban areas (villages, towns)

In JOSM, use the measure tab or, draw a circle (round building, shortcut Alt-Z when the building plugin is installed)) between the shoulders of a trace and read the distance on the lower toolbar. (don't map that bulding)

osm.wiki/East_Africa_Tagging_Guidelines
This is mentioned about tracks on the
osm.wiki/Routing#Routing_considerations

Quote: Tracks are roads of agricultural purpose. They usually connect fields to farms. The surface sometimes makes them inaccessible for regular cars, or at least limits the speeds to a very slow pace. Tagging a trace as 'track' should always be avoided for through-going traffic, access to houses/farms or within urban areas.

Important. Please connect highways to each other, where obvious, to get a network which can be used by GPS NAV systems.

Best regards

Hello. Thanks for mapping here.
You added a landuse =yes. I think you mend to tag it as landuse=residential. (common tag to tag a group of buildings. Please do not connect nodes of that mapping to highways, That are errors and need to be solved.
Best regards

We welcome you as a new mapper.
Thanks for your contribution to this project.
This changeset is reviewed by a Global Validator to check that the tasks have been mapped in accordance with the quality standards of HOTOSM.
We cannot expect from a new mapper that he/she delivers high-quality mappings from the start, so we offer some guidance.
Please pay attention to the next summarized issues. (see attached document with examples for more info)
Please pay attention how to tag the highways in this area.
Often very narrow (<2 mtr wide) which should be tagged as 'path'
Tracks never connect buildings and settlements.
See the article about it

Explanation can be found in this document what might be helpful to strengthen your mapping skills

Best regards and keep mapping!

HEllo. Thanks for mapping.
A request. Please draw a highway which continues over the edge of your task square, over the edge, Another mapper who map that task can continue that highway. Otherwise it is not visible for the mapper.
Best regards and keep mapping

Hello. Thanks for mapping.
Please check the width of a trace before you retag a path into an unclassified highway.

Hello. Thanks for mapping.
A remark. Very narrow highway traces < 2 mtr wide are to be mapped as path.
Best regards.

Hello. Thanks for mapping.
Please do not map/tag the whole task as wood, the whole area (nearly the whole project) is already mapped as wood. TM4 is not suited to map those big areas since you only see a small area ,1 task at the time.
Best regards and keep mapping.
