The preferred form for addr:unit is actually just the number without "#", "Suite", "Unit", etc. Fixed.

I don't see what's wrong with tagging it simply as an electronics store. Granted, it's much more than that and it's a different beast from Best Buy and friends, but shop=electronics seems to be the closest and most concise match. My concern with trying to tag everything is that 1) they aren't a true makerspace in the sense of Creatorspace or TXRX and 2) some programs will not deal well with multiple values in shop=* and leisure=*.

To me "full line of" is where it starts to become ad copy/marketing. Once you take that out, to me it seems like it's all objective.

Do these correspond to an actual house number or do they just mark the hundred block? If they are the numbers of the house on the corner the building outlines should have the data instead of a separate node. If the latter, then that's not something we typically add in OSM unless it corresponds to an actual address.

Don't forget there's a followup quest to this (at least in newer versions of StreetComplete) for the street name portion of the address.

Do you remember exactly what this was? tourism=attraction by itself conveys very little, if any, useful information.

Copied the old comment by mistake. There was no building passage added in this changeset, only buildings.

125242292 over 3 years ago

This was also from KartaView, oops

125203637 over 3 years ago

Should also have "MapWithAI; microsoft/BuildingFootprints" in sources. JOSM bug

This also included some buildings

Just a note, I have been tagging both a shop=chemist (on the building) and an amenity=pharmacy (on a separate node) for most Walgreens, CVS, etc locations, as frequently they are both and have different opening_hours (and often different phone numbers).

Hi,

This appears to be at least the fifth account to make a very similar addition in the greater Houston area. All of them have needed corrections in one or more of the following ways:

1. The opening_hours tag was formatted incorrectly; contrary to popular belief this is *not* a free-form text tag. See <opening_hours=*?uselang=en>. Note in particular, 24 hour time format and two-day weekdays.
2. The operator=* tag was used incorrectly. From the wiki at <operator=*?uselang=en>: "The operator tag is used to name a company, corporation, person or any other entity who is directly in charge of the current operation of a map object."
3. The phone number was formatted incorrectly (should be in international format starting with +1).
4. Nonstandard "Category" tag, removed and/or replaced.
5. Abbreviated street names in addresses, which have needed to be replaced.

Also, it would really be appreciated if you would stick to one account for all of these additions. There really is no need to keep making new accounts. Thanks!

Hi,

Generally if it's generic signage like "Nails", "Washateria", or "Barber Shop" with no specific name I will just leave the name off. If a more specific name is discovered later, it can be added. Otherwise we have a bunch of useless name entries clogging up the search.

Hi,

Please read the comments at <changeset/124713946>. Thanks.

osm.wiki/Changeset#Geographical_size_of_changesets -- "To avoid conflicts and as a courtesy to reviewers, it is recommended to:

combine changes in a small geographical area (within a city, district or province)
keep changes within the same country
upload/save changes before moving on to map in a different area"

Regarding comments, they don't have to be extremely detailed (in fact I think the limit is around 500 characters), but something like "Refine road alignment", "Extend road per newer imagery", "Add/edit retail" would be an improvement over something generic like "misc. improvements" or "updated". If you're using RapiD or MapWithAI to add a lot of buildings, and new buildings are all that's in the changeset, "Add buildings" is sufficient.

Hi,

Is this the same person that is also behind the accounts asurionappliancehouston and asurionhoustontx? If so, please realize you do not have to make a new account for each new edit, and this also makes it much more difficult to provide feedback.

Please be aware there were three issues with your recent submission, all of which have since been fixed:

1. The opening_hours tag was formatted incorrectly.
2. The operator=* tag was used incorrectly. From the wiki at <operator=*?uselang=en>: "The operator tag is used to name a company, corporation, person or any other entity who is directly in charge of the current operation of a map object."
3. The phone number was formatted incorrectly (should be in international format starting with +1).

Hi,

Please be aware of the following issues with your recent edit, all of which have since been fixed:

1. Address formatting was completely wrong.
2. The opening_hours tag was not formatted correctly (two day weekdays, no colon after weekdays).
3. description=* is not for advertising copy. (The factual information about the business founding was moved to start_date)
4. operator=* is used to name an actual operator, not just "Dentist"
5. Country=* is not a standard tag. (moved to addr:country=*)
6. Phone number should be in international format (starts with +1 for US/Canada numbers)

Thanks for clearing this up.
