Is that the intended purpose? Says who? I do use it for personal notes aswell although i try to give enough context that others can make use of it. > The map should say "report a problem", not "add a note". Imho not - We as a regional group use the Notes aswell to coordinate our work in certain areas. E.g. a new industrial area. The first thing we open a Note mentioning links to Newspaper Articles, coordinating when to go there for revisit etc. Teared down houses marked with landuse=construction - Mentioning when they got teared down and when to revisit for the new buildings. Its a feature to coordinate work as a group. I think there are more perceptions what Notes are intended for and for me its just a possibility to leave Notes at a geographic position.
