The scope for growth of our community with Maps.me is phenomenal. Of course there is room for improvement. But it's never going to be easy to lower the barriers to participation without losing quality. Some ideas: - maps.me should probably stick to simple-to-map objects when it adds data. Complicated stuff should go in a note. - if the maps.me data is old, any added object should be a note by default - maps.me should investigate why response is so low to changeset comments. Maybe OSM messages can be integrated in the app? Maybe added info should be Note by default until they have responded to a test message sent through the OSM messaging system. (though in my experience response to any OSM message is low, not just maps.me users) - maybe we should have a manual review system in place for ALL maps.me changesets, until someone marks the account as "experienced" -- Joost @ Openstreetmap <http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/joost%20schouppe/> | Twitter <https://twitter.com/joostjakob> | LinkedIn <https://www.linkedin.com/pub/joost-schouppe/48/939/603> | Meetup <http://www.meetup.com/OpenStreetMap-Belgium/members/97979802/>
