I've just uploaded my street data for the area just to the southwest of Kipling and Rathburn, in Toronto. I was drawn to this area by a curious street name I discovered doing a google maps search for "Random place in Toronto" (you may have to search twice with the same query, but you should get a list with only one hit). Incidentally, if anyone knows the reason behind this name, I'd be interested to know.

I noticed that the area wasn't on OSM, so I decided to investigate. I was disappointed to discover that there were no street signs for this road for me to photograph, or even for me to submit to OSM copyright-free. Perhaps they have been stolen by others who liked the name, but who don't want to share. There are a few signs on the houses which suggest that this is an actual name (I had wondered if it was a poison Easter egg, but it appears on a number of independent maps), but I didn't feel I could photograph these, and I assume this isn't considered valid confirmation of the name as far as OSM is concerned. So this street remains nameless, but I have submitted a number of others with names. Nonetheless, there is still a fair bit of work to be done in this area, including the green space.

Anyway, this is my first submission to OSM, so if anyone has any comments or criticisms, I would like to hear them. In particular, I'm not sure how to attach nodes to tracks already in OSM. I used JOSM to create my ways, and attached nodes to streets they abut, but many of the streets abut Kipling or Rathburn, which are already in OSM, and which I did not walk. Is there a way to inform OSM that some of these nodes should be attached to existing ways on OSM?
