Answers in-line:
1. Long and repetitive road names: a. Elkmont Campground Road A, Elkmont Campground Road G, Cades Cove Campgruond Segment H b. Perhaps the long name could go into official_name, with the name= left blank? 2. Some time ago, there was lengthy thread on the whole "official name" issue. We agreed to use official name, and at import time, would use name and official name with the same "name". OSM mappers/park visitors are encouraged to update/modify the name tag with "local" or alternative/short name. We have used some alt names, such as for the back country campsites. 3. For: amenity=toilets Do you know if it is toilets:disposal=pitlatrine? 4. At this time, we have/are not capturing specific method of restroom design. This is a good follow-up OSM mapper project, related to our upcoming POI application. Many visitors are very peculiar about this attribute! I have SOME limited data about what toilet does what, but not enough to make a global edit without visiting each one! You can assume, of course, that some are pit toilets, such as the ones on top of Leconte and Clingmans Dome. 5. Some duplicate Peaks are present: a. Chinquapin Knob 6. Corrected 8 duplicate peak name/locations. There are many peak names that ARE duplicate, but that is the correct name, peaks in different locations. Thanks for pointing that out. 7. Is that a cemetary or a grave yard? a. landuse=cemetery 8. Corrected: Cemeteries associated with existing or ruined churches are tagged as graveyard, all other "cemetery" 9. Odd tagging a. Cades Cove Campground and Shelter: Toilets at the corners of their buildings. 10. Not seeing this.? I did find some random nodes tagged "source=NPS" (fixed). We initially tagged building nodes with amenity, this should have been resolved.

That and excessive points on some ways...

As evident by list serve postings, there is still some discussion about how to tag, what, etc.
