The flossmanual is a better beginner guide, I'm sending a link to it in my welcome message to new contributors in France (it has been translated in french) learnosm is another one to consider too... (french translation available too)
Kort is a very nice approach. Wheelmap styled apps are also easy to use. In fact, as long as you don't have to deal with topology/geometry, the required level to add more details to existing data is very low and opens contribution to a much broader audience... then you can enter the "editors" world with iD I've also seen several people afraid of "breaking" things, and I thought of some global geometry lock/unlock to allow contributions only at tag level or switch to a tag+geometry level. 2013/4/16 Stefan Keller <[email protected]> > Hi Mikel > > Yes, th iD editor is a good step in the right direction. > But even given that this tool is well made and self explanatory there is > still room for better introductory material. > The main entry page [1] for example is not very appealing, little bit > outdated and lacks pictures and video material. > To me it would be worthwile to consider dedicating a (OSMF?
