All buildings should be traced. If houses are clustered closed one to the other (more like usual hamlets or villages), trace a polygon around the houses with the tag landuse=residential. Pierre

People in rural areas don't bunch their homes together. There can be as much as 500 ft between neighbors, but they all consider themselves part of a village. Hope this helps.

We might need some guidance on what constitutes a village for this purpose, for example, minimum number of buildings.

If they are roughly two lane and long, then use highway = tertiary.

You can see the description in http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nepal/Roads Thanks, Megha He, all, I read the instructions for tagging roads on Task #1043. However, there is no tag for roads that fall between highway=secondary and highway=track. What about the unpaved, but maintained roads between small villages? These are roads that we might tag highway=unclassified in the U.S. These roads often are (barely) two lanes. They're definitely larger than a typical track. Do we tag those highway=secondary also?
