Hi,

I have come across a few mappers in the past who have put in a huge amount of 
effort to map their town, but were not aware of the connectivity or the 
importance of. When I have explained it to them and shown them some routing 
service that they hadn't come across before, they are generally happy to learn 
from their mistake, especially if you give some help with the editor and be 
very specific about how to make the adjustments. Maybe there is a specific 
tutorial or video that can now be linked to.

I think your link is to the wrong location.
