I've been looking at it, the tagging seems correct, however the positioning was a little bit off. For example, you moved this node over here http://osm.org/go/0EpKR9L0G-- about 50 meters to the north west which shouldn't have been done. Hence, the rest of the border was also a bit off. I've moved them myself to a better position. I can't open the gisgeoloket from the Antwerp province anymore since it's using Silverlight, but I guess you've been using the old maps to get the boundaries of Muizen? Getting the position right is difficult with those since features change a lot over time. I could recommend using http://www.geopunt.be/kaart to compare different layers to get the right alignment.
