Getting started Posted by christianstorer on 24 July 2016 in English. Learning how to edit; started adding some of my local subdivision. Looking for confirmation of tagging and techniques.

Hello and welcome!
The edits look nice; may I have some suggestions on extra tags? The streets could use a surface=* tag (asphalt?), and perhaps lanes=* (2 is the usual count - one for each direction).
surface=*
lanes=*
As for buildings, could you add building:levels=* ? It’s a very useful hint e.g. for OsmBuildings.
building:levels=*
I’d also recommend wrapping the area in landuse=residential - see this one “next door”: way/316156882
Cheers, Piskvor
