Hello Tracy08, you have edited the building to cover the entire compound, but that is incorrect. The previous version was alright.

Hi Lygence, you deleted 2 bus stops here. Please avoid deleting objects with which you may lack an understanding.

Hi Lygence, welcome to OSM and thanks for contributing to the map in Ghana. Note that in OSM we don't abbreviate names (osm.wiki/Abbreviations). So avoid editing existing names to abbreviations or adding new ones like so.

Hello LakeHulun, you added many fords in this changeset, but I'm pretty sure there are culverts at these points.

Hi Atavoidirc, you changed the original Wikipedia article to a redirect link, i.e en:UTC−01:00 → en:UTC-01:00. Please review your edit.

Hi MonteDesert, you seem to have access to recent imagery. The road you extended crosses a stream. Can you verify whether there is a culvert or a bridge at the intersection and apply the appropriate fix?

Hello Dosoo Othniel, welcome to OSM. Please note that the accepted way of adding names of places is using the Title Case. ALL UPPERCASE NAMES are not favoured. I'll advise you to modify your changes to match the ones around, e.g Golden Jubilee Clinic, Bungalow 1, Old Dining Hall, etc.

Hi Paul, welcome to OSM. Thanks for adding the school. You should have written the name the same way you wrote it in the changeset comment. You also needed to add the amenity=school tag.

Hello albert12@, this changeset and a few others you have made today have crossing buildings. Buildings shouldn't overlap each other. The editor warns you about this mistake, so kindly fix it before you save/upload.

Hello Gregam530, I see you have changed/reverted some additions and modifications I made to this bank branch.

First, the position of the bank is on Galloway Road. Amoonakwa Road is down south and ends at the crossing with Commercial Street. Unless that's wrong, the right addr:street should be Galloway Road.

Secondly, the initial opening hours you added are the right ones. The opening_hours for a bank reflects the hours that they are operating with staff. 24/7 may be for the ATM.

Thirdly, the standardised way of recording phone numbers in OSM is with the country dialling code (+233 for Ghana) and the local number without the starting zero. This allows anyone worldwide to call the number.

Lastly, the operator tag represents the entity (person or company) operating a business, and here we normally use the official registered name of the company. Additionally, the branch details are typically added in the branch=* tag and excluded from the name tag. An alt_name can be used for the combination of the two.

I hope this feedback helps.
Happy mapping!!

Best,
Sam

Hello once again F y. As I commented on a previous changeset, tagging a building with building=yes is enough. Don't add name=building because the name tag is reserved for actual names (e.g. Jubilee House, Aseda House).

Hello FACUOS, the name and brand details of banks and other POIs are necessary and useful. Please don't remove them. If this was accidental, kindly pay more attention the next time.

It would be great if you could also add the names of the restaurants, bars, and fast food joints you add to the map.

Best,
Sam

Hello FACUOS, the building here was already well mapped, and there was no need to delete it and replace it with what you mapped. Your changes have been reversed as a result.

Best,

Hello Kraklord, can you verify if you placed the ATM at the right position?

Hello Ahmedstreets,

Welcome to OSM and thanks for your contributions. There are a few things you need to be aware of as you contribute to OSM.

First, we use Title Case for names but not UPPER CASE.
Secondly, the addr:street is reserved for the street the place is located. Not all streets in Ghana are properly named and signed so if there isn't one, don't make it up. Additionally, the street name should also be present in OSM.
Lastly, the tag values should match the keys. For example, Adenta is a suburb of Accra, so the right address key for it is addr:suburb. addr:city doesn't fit because Adenta is not a city.

Best,
Sam
