Hi,

the maps are not instantly refreshed (rendered). For mapnik you have to wait until about wednesday and Osmarender should show the changes within hours, at most a few days. If you want instant results check out KOSMOS. See Wiki.

To be a bit more complete, the data you have uploaded needs to be rendered. OSM has two different renderers. The default view is called Mapnik and it only rerenders from a dump of all the data on Wednesday. There is as alternate view called osmarender, which is usually updated upon data upload, but make take a bit. You can see the two by clicking on the little blue + on the right side of the map. You can also manually trigger osmarender by going to informationfreeway.org, zooming in to your location and clicking on the tile at zoom 12.
