making tiny edits to geometry across hundreds of miles is not recommended. i'm sure you can contribute in much more useful ways, for example adding building addresses or local business names.

looks ok! minor edits to make stuff match the satellite aren't super important but your contrbutions are appreciated. one tip is avoid making many edits over a wide area in one changeset if you can avoid it, since it will draw changeset boxes across entire cities and no one editor will have local knowledge of all those areas.

Hi Cordelia! Can you clarify this intermittent stream that starts near the athletic field, goes through a building and ends up in the front lawn? Does it really flow towards the lawn? Does it go anywhere? Is it underground where it goes through the building? Is it just for helping students get water Pokemon? I don't have a Magikarp in this fight, just trying to clean up things that don't make sense (like a stream flowing into a lawn)

(i should mention the opposite is also true: a parking lot without any roads going into it is flagged as weird. as you can see just south of your property, the most minimal parking situation is often a service road going into a parking lot area.)

looks great! the very last thing is that a parking aisle that isn't inside a parking lot is often flagged as weird, so consider drawing some boxes around the areas of your business where parking spaces can be found, and tagging them as parking lots. details such as customer/public/private access, fees, # of spaces/handicap, etc, can also be added as desired.
thanks for your contribution!

review:
hi there! looks pretty good. FYI parking aisles should *only* be the in-between aisles of a large lot that are only used to find a parking space, and driveways should generally be a stand-alone thing going right up to a building like at your house, or perhaps a loading dock.

to be most accurate, i believe the recommended way is to tag everything used for getting in and out of the parking lot as a service road. you can leave the back-and-forth in-between rows as parking_aisles.

review: looks okay, however please try to edit existing objects instead of deleting and recreating. history is lost when things are deleted.

Review: looks fine! I notice a plaque on this building, if it has a name or is unique in some way feel free to add that info using the name or description tags.

@Adamant1: thanks I've been learning more about the proper way to tag things and went through a spat where I thought lots of POIs was a good idea. In this case I probably knew there was a business here but not what the exact name was, so my goal was to use it as a placeholder that an app like streetcomplete could fill in the details of. But the reality seems to be somewhat different so I plan to change these as appropriate when I have time.
