Fixing the english

Lot of work still to do on this page fixing the english. Right now it will create a bad impression if any english speaking press read this. If I spend too long rewriting it though, I get this sinking feeling that I seem to be writing "yet another introduction to the project". -- Harry Wood 02:48, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi Harry, feel free to start from scratch. I tried to encourage people on different channels to write this press kit, but sadly noone did. As the media seemed to like the german version, I tried to translate this is english. Of course it's not real good, but remembering the spirit of a wiki, I thought it was a first step :) --!i! 10:41, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

You working on that Harry? We tried to keep the focus on Journalists (not geo experienced, low IT knowledge, looking for metaphers, ...). Currently we have no such a landing page that we could give away, or? --!i! 18:52, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Yes I have not been working on it. Neither it seems, has any other english speaker worked on fixing this since I said that in 2013 -- Harry Wood (talk) 19:43, 10 May 2015 (UTC)

Part rewrite request: Use "free geographic data" instead of "map" since first paragraph

This is actually misleading statement "free street map of the world". We define ourselves differently today. Misconceptions_about_OpenStreetMap#OpenStreetMap_is_a_map.

If we use statements about "free geographic data" since first paragraph, then there no need in explain Press_Kit#Data_vs._Map. Xxzme (talk) 16:42, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
