Hello Qwajo Antwi, welcome to OSM and thanks for contributing to the map in Ghana.

There were existing buildings, albeit mapped less than an hour before you, where you added new buildings. Update the data before uploading when mapping HOT Tasks to prevent this problem.

Best,
Sam

Hi Jo442, welcome to OSM and thanks for your contribution to the map in Ghana. Please take note of existing features before mapping. Residential land use existed for the villages here, so it was not necessary to add another one around them.

Hi Anyagri,
Welcome to OpenStreetMap. If I understand your changeset comment right, did you make these changes as a practical for school work?

Hello PripetRiver, please consider buildings when mapping roads to prevent roads from crossing buildings.

Hi Rudolph, you re-aligned and moved some objects to match the Bing Maps Aerial as you can see, but you should know that there is a significant offset [1] between the imagery and data in Accra.

Secondly, your changeset comment does not tell us what you actually did. Learn about making good changeset comments here [2].

The changes you made also introduce a lot of errors so it, unfortunately, had to be reversed [3].

Thanks for your contribution, Surveyor Newton. Could you share the source of this information?

From the Sunyani West District Map [1], it appears the existing boundary was correct.

Hello, welcome to OSM. Please don't add your name/username as name of objects. That is not right.

Hello Joseph, you deleted existing hostels for no legitimate reason. Your changes have been reverted via changeset/163558200

Hello Gideon,
If you want to denote that the building you added is a house, use building=house instead. The name tag is reserved for the actual name of a building. Review these changes and remove the name=House tag from the buildings.

Hello King Cyrus, names on OSM are written in Title Case but not UPPERCASE. Revise this changeset and keep that in mind for future edits.

Hello, if this business is located in Ontario, Canada why would you add it in Twifo Praso, Ghana?

Hi Willyoa,
Welcome to OSM. Write the names of places in Name Case and not ALL UPPERCASE. Just like you wrote it in your changeset comment.

Hello Stackz911, thanks for contributing to the map in Ghana. Please know that only official names are added to buildings. That is, if it's publicly known or is inscribed on the building. I doubt every building here is named 'Dansoman'.

Consider this in your future edits.

Best,
Sam

Then you should have fixed those problems rather than deleting the roads altogether.

Hello Daayve, you have deleted multiple roads and POIs in this changeset. Was that intentional? If yes, why?

Great! Thanks

Hello Mr Sey, all the buildings you mapped do not have the building tag.
Please always remember to add tags to objects you map moving forward.

I have created a Maproulette challenge (mpr.lt/c/48876) dealing with untagged ways in Ghana so they are going to get fixed soon.

Thanks for reviewing the edits.

The paths around the bridge are not visible in the imagery. I think it's better to delete them. Including way/965684286
