Talk:Beginners Guide 1.1

From OpenStreetMap

This page is a bit wordy I feel, "What data to add" in particular with the suggested data to get. I'm not really sure yet, but I'm considering just moving this chunk all together. I think the order in which people map varies between people, and is pretty obvious. If people want to map a town, then roads/amenities etc. will obviously be mapped. The actual order isn't really correct anyway for mapping in general, since usually you would map details up when making a map, although in OSM it's usually reversed. I tend to do details up as in adding the fine detail all the rest gets done as you go. Beginners don't want to be hit with a wall of text anyway, so unless really necessary, then I think we should shrink down this beginners guide page. I shall do so if there are no objections within a week or so. Ben 00:02, 10 April 2008 (BST)
