Hello,

There doesn't appear to be a park here, this looks like it's someone's private home and yard.

Hi Nero304,

Do you have more info about this park? way/1080152548

Imagery as new as this year shows a building covering most of this location.

Hi DonovanSt,

If you switch to Esri Imagery in the editor, the imagery is much newer here. Using Esri, I was able to move the park you added off adjacent houses.

I wasn't able to work out what you were trying to do with the gazebos though. One was next to the Ring Road offramp, and the other was right on the edge of the road on Broadmeadows Crescent.

Please do not add fictional features to OpenStreetMap, they will be removed.

Hi Billphill87,

You've deleted and readded this park several times over the past year or so. Are you trying to do something in particular?

Hi JoeYEG,

It looks like you've included shadows cast by trees in the area you added here. If you swap to other imagery in the browser-based editor (iD), other sources show things much more clearly. I have made changes to reflect what is on the ground here more accurately.

Additionally, the name tag should only be used for actual names of things. It's totally fine to leave it blank if a park/garden doesn't have a name.

Hi Brandgarc94,

I'm not sure that I'm understanding how this: way/1075985296 is a park? It looks like a hotel.

You have not added any access restrictions to this park - is the general public able to walk in and use these facilities?

Hello,

Noting that you have added a park in this general area several times over the past few years, primarily over the adjacent house, and that this house is listed on other services as being associated with a business by the name Brayack Media. For the time being, I have changed this community garden to allotments... but do you have any evidence that this community garden actually exists?

For additional reference, see changesets 55529021 (4 years ago) 74274347 (3 years ago) 82004597 (2 years ago) in which the same mapper added a similar park feature over the adjacent house, and then proceeded to expand/readd it with each revision it.

Hi!

This park seems awfully small and strangely placed. do you have any information about it? Searching for The Oasis Park at Commonwealth Avenue doesn't seem to bring up any information online.

Hello, welcome!

This doesn't include the yards of private family homes. This change has been removed.

Hi, there's already a park mapped here and I'm not sure what "AP" is, so I've removed this node.

Sure, okay, so map the specific areas that have trees, picnic tables and shelters separately (including access - can anyone walk in and use them?) rather than changing the entire Division of Highways, Materials Control Soils and Testing into a park.

Imagery that predates the first time you changed this to a park and also imagery very recent shows that this as a fenced-in compound which is about 90% asphalt and buildings. In what way could you possibly define this as a park by OSM definitions?

Thanks for the quick reply! I've converted the two park areas here into grass instead and then added a park to cover them all and carry the name "Minogue Reserve" I also expanded the park to include the basketball court as well as the garden area under the raised pedestrian walkway.

Hi!

I can delete it for you, no problem. Is there anything else I need to remove?

Hello,

You added this park way/1070311908/ over a building.

I can't find any evidence of a park with this name - do you have more information? County news articles or similar?

Welcome to OSM!
Thanks for your changeset.
I've made some changes to your edits so that the buildings are now marked as such and that features like the pool have more relevant tagging (you mapped it as a park rather than a pool)

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Hi thewrathoxic!

Welcome to OSM and thank you for your contributions so far!

You've added some recreation grounds in this backyard here. What are they? Recreation grounds are normally used for open spaces that contain sports pitches and similar features. If it's just a house's deck or similar, it's probably not a recreation ground by OSM definitoons.

We should also limit the mapping for private usage, you can read more on the wiki here: osm.wiki/Limitations_on_mapping_private_information
