What are you expecting to be there that is not?

The problem with using amenity=university and name=XYZ together is the implication to applications that use OSM that XYZ is the name of a university. See osm.org/?lat=51.52305&lon=-0.13277&zoom=16&layers=B000FTF for an example of the issue.

Project pages in the OSM wiki aren’t really comparable to articles in Wikipedia. Do they have links to pages in the Wikipedia: namespace?

StreetView does show the back alleys in terraced houses in Manchester… but not which of them have been closed off with gates. (How can I edit my replies?)

StreetView does show the back alleys in terraced houses in Manchester… just which of them have been closed off with gates.

I’ve been trying adding some names from StreetView too. I’ve been trying to work on areas I can (eventually) survey myself to fill in the holes; this includes a bit of Manchester (I live in London) that I will be visiting.

If you feel out of your depth making a change you can make a note of what the problem is on Openstreetbugs.

The alternative to raster manipulations would be to follow the French Cadastre plugin and edit in the Ordnance Survey projection.

A good place to start is with Yahoo aerial photographs, which are available at a large scale in Hyderabad and which we are allowed to trace street outlines from. If you have a location that is in a street whose name isn’t on the map you should find out which street in the photograph corresponds to the name by surveying it on the ground.

Most of the red stops in London appear to be either misplaced or on misplaced roads, which is a different issue but still worth tackling.

How would you tag Rosslyn Park rugby round then? I tagged it as a stadium because there is fixed accommodation for spectators, but it is only on one side of the pitch and I mapped the whole area of the ground.

Is there any point adding a few cities in neighbouring countries for international routing?

Well done! By the way, another good idea is to point out how OSM does better on any matter any other commenter criticises (which may of course be thanks to someone’s freelance effort) or to see how it can be made better when it isn’t already.

Would you believe it! We have reached https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/3100000.

Is there anything we can do to make it easier for Nigerians to contribute?

The tags on nodes imported from TIGER are being removed. A typical edit is osm.org/browse/changeset/2780108.

Mapnik has got a feature to omit names when they get too crowded. If there’s a similar provision for POIs they could be put into the smaller-scale style sheets. You can ask for this at http://trac.mapnik.org, though that’s only useful if there’s someone out there willing to code it.

I left Wikipedia because there were people who threw away all of the supposed good they did for the project with their abrasiveness. Unfortunately there are people like that here to and I don’t know if they can reform themselves.

The park was part of a (useless) multipolygon and someone’s evidently attached their building to it instead of creating a new one. I’ve found attaching a way to the wrong relation in Potlatch is only too easy.
