Hi I think much of the mapping recently in Kilkenny has been down to a single user who, like anyone, might not appreciate the issue or have the skillset to identify or map different building types. They may have misinterpreted "Map all the buildings!". There are certain features where many users, even experience ones, just add basic tagging. Others will come back and fill in the details.
b-unicycling has created 222,594 new nodes and 36,218 buildings in the last **two months** and is currently the busiest mapper in Ireland, while essentially only mapping in Kilkenny. In 6 years, I've only ever created 633,133 new nodes, but I've 1,157,614 map changes, so we have very different mapping styles. b-unicycling is mapping lots of features an the prompts in ID for the last four features is less useful for this style of mapping. A direct contact might be useful - I can do that if you like, as b-unicycling and I have chatted before. If b-unicycling is on this mailing list, well done in you mapping. ID has become more friendly recently to doing large scale editing as you can now add several tags in one copy & paste action. Select a feature and in the left hand panel, at "All tags" there are buttons for "list" and "text". It means that with, for example, a housing estate (with identical roads), once the lines of all the roads are mapped, adding road type, speed limit, lanes, surface, etc. just becomes a copy & paste exercise. http://stat.latlon.org/ has an error for Ireland and Northern Ireland at the moment. Could I ask where you get the stats?
