Hi, thanks for your comment. Please do go ahead and change the name if it is wrong. The source I used for this may have some inaccuracies or be out-of-date.

Hi Luke,
Many thanks for your help in updating the map in the Eastbourne area, and adding additional shops etc! Your mapping is very useful to help keep the area up-to-date in OpenStreetMap.

It's just a minor issue but I wanted to let you know that we don't normally add a name tag to landuse areas such as residential landuse areas as a general rule, though there are some exceptions. Generally to include a name tag it should be a landuse which is a distinct named and signed area, like a named industrial estate or an out-of-town retail park. We avoid duplication, so the name of a road for example shouldn't also be added as a name tag on the landuse. We also wouldn't add the name of the local area/suburb/town/village etc to a landuse area, as we already map places separately in OpenStreetMap.

If you've got any questions I'm happy to advise.

Cheers,
Paul

Hi! I've looked at my photos I used in my survey and it is/was some kind of business located on the ground floor of 7 St Georges Square just called 'COT', but I can't tell from the photo what kind of business it is. Whether it's still there now I've no idea.

Well spotted! I had just meant to tag it as operator=UK Power Networks. JOSM must have auto-filled it as operator:wikidata when I was just trying to type in operator, and I didn't notice! I'll fix it.

Thanks,
Paul

The two Wikidata records appears to have been an error in Wikidata, that someone has now fixed. The two Wikidata entries have been merged, and the OSM wikidata tag was updated by mueschel.
