Please do not add fictional parks to OSM. This is a real world map used for many purposes. Your fake edits will be removed.

Hello :)
You changed the Asian Elephant Exhibit to a park in this changeset. Does it still contain elephants? If so, leisure=park probably isn't correct by OSM standards: leisure=park

Hi there! It looks like you have this park (at least partially) over houses - are you sure that's correct?

Are you sure this is called Horse Lake Department Store? It seems a little small for a department store.

Please watch your spelling and case - we use Title Case on names of things.

That's really great to hear - I spent days working through some of these footways and feel like I barely made any changes. In the end I started to burn out, so I put it on the back-burner.

Are you local? I found imagery in this location really lacking at the time, and mapillary simply didn't cover a lot of the streets.

The area around this note:
note/1927045 was what finally broke me. Maybe you'll have better luck :'D

Whoops, that was intended for the note on this park 😅

Hi Wenzheng Xu,

Please note that OSM is a public map that everyone can see. Do not add personal details here such as your home or specific routes that you personally travel.

Okay... well OSM isn't just a pokemon GO map editor, it's a real world map used for many purposes.

I really can't see how either of these could be considered grass:

Links to areas:
way/745505964
way/745505963

OSM defines parks in a specific way:
leisure=park?uselang=en

This definition does not include farm land.

Besides, landuse=farmland has practically the exact same effect on Pokemon GO as leisure=park - they both create nests and they both can generate EX eligible gyms. If that's what you're trying to do, there's absolutely no need to add park tagging to the farm field.

If you just map accurately and add only real features and tagging, it should have a positive effect on both OSM and GO :)

In the changeset you've changed farmland to parks and added several patches of grass where there doesn't appear to be any (including in the middle of an intersection - why?

Hi and welcome back to OSM!

A couple of questions/comments:
1) Are the hydrants still active? If so, it's probably best to tag them with emergency=fire_hydrant.
2) There's no need to mark each park entrance with a new park - this is typically implied by the road being near or going into the larger park area. Typically it's best to follow the "One feature, one OSM element" rule here.

No problem - I fixed it for you already. If you're using the browser based ID editor, you can find the tagging preset by looking up "parking lot" :)

76933417 about 6 years ago

In this changeset you've created at least 3 different areas for Giffin Park... including one that used to be a wetland.

Hi and welcome to OSM...
You've added recreation_ground tagging to features here that really shouldn't have it - why are the toilets a recreation ground as an example?

Hi and welcome to OSM!

When you add parking lots, the correct tagging is amenity=parking. It's a common error, but leisure=park (which you used here) is an open green space with playgrounds and gardens.

Thanks for your contributions to the map so far :)

Hi Felix,
What were you trying to add here? You created a park inside of a building and named it for its coordinates.

76408472 about 6 years ago

I guess the alternative would be to split it at the footpath above the playground. Top being grassland, or meadow, or grass... whatever it actually is on the ground, and the lower part being a park. I don't know though...
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

76408870 about 6 years ago

Gotcha, okay, so if it's the same feature then it should probably be the one area. I've adjusted the relation to include the additional fenced off part of the Nature Reserve - which I believe is what you were attempting to do in the first place?

I've ticked review requested on that changeset, so if other more knowledgeable mappers object they can follow it up.

76408870 about 6 years ago

Yeah it's a little weird how that little section is just caged in on its own, maybe another mapper with local knowledge might be able to help out here.
