Hi T B 68,
I came across your edits and you have created an artwork in the name of Ryszard Kapuściński. Can you please explain what this artwork is and why does it have someone's name as the identity feature?
Thanks!

Hi Ray Calladine,
I came across your edits and noticed you have tagged an office or business space as tourism=attraction. This tag is for places which has tourism value or places which a lot of people visit and this tag is not meant for offices. Can you please explain whether you tagged it this way because the office deals with tourism? Can you please change the tag to the appropriate one for a business?

Hi Inayat Ur Rahman,
I came across your edits and noticed you have created guest houses and named them with years and the person's name. Guest houses are for travellers and they are used as a resting point. They cannot be named in personal names. Can you please explain whether these are real guest houses or are these normal homes.

Ancient Thera (3657813228, v4)
The history doesnt show any change that is done by me in the changesets. Not sure of why this big changeset got created. Aware of this problem, looking into it.

I just changed the tag and uploaded. Haven't added any other points or modified. The layer was just one. Not sure of why there is such a big changeset. Looking into it.

Hi Zurab055,
I came across your edits and noticed that you have marked a bookshop and an outdoor shop right at the stadium, where there is a least possibility of these shops unless these are temporary stalls. Can you please confirm whether these were meant to be added on the other side of the road or are these temporary,

Hi Kerezsi Florin,
I came across your edits and noticed that you have added a shelter tag using maps.me on a building which is unnecessary. Can you please explain why you have added this and since it is unnecessary, can you please delete the tag.
Thanks!

Hi StefVIS,
I came across your edits and noticed you have marked a chalet as Apartment on Demand. May I know the reason why? Mapping on OpenStreetMap doesn't include advertising. Please delete the name tag for the chalet or add it's original name.

Hi Mario330,
I came across your edits and you have added a Casino POI in the middle of a residential area, where it is highly unlikely for a casino to be built or permitted a license. I was just curious whether you were trying to mark a gaming arcade or your house. Can you please let me know why you have marked this POI as a casino? Thanks!

Hi Wisams,
You have created two castles, with names that seems like personal names. Can you please explain what you were trying to map? Or whether you added castle tags by mistake? For more reference on where the "historic=castle" is used, please refer historic=castle

Hi Alejandro,
I came across your edits and noticed there are multiple entities with the same name and the names of the POI's have 31 y 42. Can you please explain what does this mean and also, take a second look at why there are multiple POI's of the same name? If they are redundant or repeats, please do delete the duplicates and update the map.

Hi,
Thanks for getting back and welcome to OpenStreetMap :) I am posting the guide to JOSM for your reference, osm.wiki/JOSM/Guide. You can learn how to edit on JOSM from here. Hope it helps.. and thanks for letting me know you have changed the tags of the previously added features.

Hi Kailashdhirwani
It is understandable that maps.me does not have provisions for tagging certain things like societies and other miscellaneous tags but adding wrong tags can be avoided. Please don't mark societies as attractions since attraction tag is used only for tourism related POI's. Please do revert or change the tags of attraction and artwork.

Hi, Berni971
I am just curious of why a post box name is Jourdan Rozaine. Post box amenity on maps.me refers to the post boxes on streets that are used to put letters that is later collected by someone from main post office to be delivered to different places. They do not have names but are identified with numbers. Your edits are marking post boxes on houses and buildings with names and a tick mark. Can I know the reason for this?

Hi molgaz,
This changeset has been reverted since you had added `building=house` tags for each and every node of the buildings you added. Not every node requires a tag. Tags should be for a particular entity. A node requires a tag only if it is a point of interest. There is some great documentation here - http://learnosm.org/en/ from where you can learn more about tagging and mapping on OpenStreetMap.

Hi, AdamLin.
Thanks for contributing to OpenStreetMap. However, the streets that you were adding didn't have proper tags or missing the tags for highways altogether. Please do note that all the entities that are mapped on OpenStreetMap should have appropriate tags. Please do refer the tagging system of OSM on how to add tags. There is some excellent documentation about OSM here - http://learnosm.org/

Hi @Didi_R
Since the part of the road Bolivar you renamed looks like it is part of a dual carriage way of Avenue Libertad, can you please explain as to why you renamed the part of the road to a different name? Or is it just one road and the Avenue Libertad has been renamed to Bolivar?
