>Recently I mapped a task where there were many non-squared buildings, some
roads crossing buildings and some other things
Because of the answer on one of my previous questions now I try to correct
all these mistakes but with some basic instructions they can hopefully be
avoided
it’s frustrating to see that someone has done a lot of work and that it all
have to be corrected.

Personally I wouldn't bother correcting  the buildings.  Most are requests
from NGOs and at some point they will decide that badly mapped buildings
are good enough or they will bring pressure to bear on the project managers
and HOT to get a decent building_tool in place.  There is one in JOSM but
it isn't promoted and that one is usable by new mappers.

When it takes longer to correct something by a skilled mapper than it would
to map it correctly in the first place something is wrong.
