Dear openstreetmappers :)
I'm quite worried about the quality of maps for task 1018.Many of mappers, 
obviously, did not check the instructions or even the tutorials. People want to 
help, and that's awesome, but maybe validation should be done my more 
experienced and meticulous mappers.I've seen mappers validating more that 10 
areas in less than an hour, and those areas still contain many errors : 
clusters of buildings mapped as one, landuse=residential area used for clusters 
of nothing more than 1 or 2 buildings, many streams seen as footpath, many 
paths in the middle of nowhere... Maybe instructions should contain some images 
to show clearly what is expected, and explain that the purpose of this map is 
to count each individual buildings and have roads and paths connected to them 
so buildings can be reached by humanitarian teams.Currently, most of my time on 
1018 is to check validated areas because half of those areas are not correctly 
mapped.
Paul
