also, try to ask questions at help.openstreetmap.org or from nearby mappers if you need help with OSM-related stuff

So far, I do not have problems with it. Try flushing the tile cache in JOSM.

I'm also encountering a similar problem.

addr=*

Addendum: Use Merkaartor

It can be done in Potlatch. See osm.wiki/Relation:restriction for more information.

It's a good thing that you found a better cop-out. Other than that, another job well done.

@LR-7 Thank you for responding to my comment.

By the way, you could encounter this problem - entering sites that may raise someone's suspicion (specifically outdoor retail strips/areas within "private property"). My suggestion is for you to make a customized ID. (Note: This problem pops up for me from time to time).

If the gated community requires you to leave your ID with the security personnel, tag it as access=private. (Even if you can enter through a sticker, most users cannot enter the gated communities) Also, DO NOT copy data from Google Maps and Google Mapmaker.

It's not spamming (AFAIK) - he/she is just informing.

No, it's not spam.

you can change the postal codes by editing it (within the area that has the "3903" postal code)

Sorry for the late reply.

I don't usually document housenumbers using a camera.

I'm talking about housenumber documentation paranoia, not Panoramafreiheit.

And there should be an option where you can "choose" your license. (Suggested licenses are ODbL 1.0, DbCL 1.0, CC BY-SA (2.0, 2.5, 3.0) and PD. You can choose to dual or multi-license your edits/contributions unless want your edits to be part of the Public domain or the "let the foundation decide that for me" license)

It should be "anything", not "anyhing". And there should be a "Message too long? Click here" link for those who are stumped with those "big words"

I assume that the person is running for a local post in Los Baños. To play safe, I won't upload the waypoints/traces that contain the offending waypoint (until we make amends or the concerned person forgets the incident in 2-4 months time)

Thanks, Gnonthgol and JohnSmith.

Content or user no longer exist. Apparently, spam was removed.

@daveemtb I also use name= and osm.wiki/Tag:old_name=, but that doesn't cause that much controversy IRL. For example: http://www.gmanews.tv/story/143204/Officials-inaugurate-GMA-Network-Drive-in-QC, which happened over a year ago.
